No miracle promises. No supplement causes weight loss by itself. Weight management depends on the balance between the energy you take in and the energy you use, a balanced diet and regular physical activity. That is why we do not attribute "fat-burning" or "metabolism-boosting" effects to these products.

Caffeine. Caffeine is the ingredient with authorised health claims in these formulas. With at least 75 mg per serving, caffeine contributes to increased alertness and to improved concentration. Caffeine also contributes to an increase in endurance performance and endurance capacity and to a reduction in the perceived exertion/effort during exercise: the beneficial effect is obtained with an intake of 3 mg per kg of body weight one hour before exercise. Contains caffeine: not recommended for children or pregnant or breast-feeding women. Do not combine with other sources of caffeine and avoid taking it within 6 hours of bedtime. Check the mg of caffeine per serving on each product.

Green tea, L-carnitine and other extracts. Green tea extract, L-carnitine, capsaicin and other botanical extracts are described factually (dose and form), without health claims. In the EU, the daily intake of EGCG from green tea extracts must stay below 800 mg. See also our herbal supplements.

Frequently asked questions

Do thermogenics make you lose weight? No. No supplement makes you lose weight by itself; what counts is your diet, exercise and energy balance.

Can I take a thermogenic with a pre-workout? It is not recommended, as both usually contain caffeine. EFSA considers up to 400 mg of caffeine per day safe for a healthy adult.
