Keto Burn Xtreme Review

How Do You Get Started on Keto?

You get started on keto by restricting the amount of carbohydrates you eat to 20-30 grams per day.

That’s the right way to do it. After 2 or 3 days you will automatically enter metabolic ketosis as your body gives up on looking for carbs and decides to burn fat.

The wrong way to get started on keto is to pick up something like Keto Burn Xtreme and think that it’s going to tip you into ketosis without your having to change your eating habits. It won’t.

All you’ll wind up doing is peeing out the exogenous ketones you get from the weight loss pills and you won’t lose any weight.

How Much Weight Can You Lose on Keto?

The amount of weight you can lose on keto is limited only by the amount of available fat in your body. That’s because ketosis is the body’s natural way of ensuring we can get through the lean times.

The fat stores on our gut and butt that are so problematic are actually part of this whole keto mechanism.

When we eat carbohydrates any excess is turned by our system into fat. This fat is designed to be used at a later date when food is scarce. Like a bear packing on weight in preparation for the long, lean winter to come.

Today, however, food is rarely scarce. At least for people in the West. Therefore we carry this excess weight around with us for years. Not only that, but we continue to add more and more fat to these emergency stores until it reaches levels that start to interfere with our health.

But it was never meant to be this way. We were supposed to fatten up during good times and then burn this fat through ketosis when food was scarce. The keto diet then is a way to initiate an emergency fat burn and rid yourself of this unneeded reserve fuel.

Of course the danger is that if you’re not careful you could wind up losing an amount of weight that is simply not healthy.

So once you reach your desired weight you’ll need to find a balance between the amount of fat you’re burning and the amount of fat you are consuming.

What is Keto Burn Xtreme?

Keto Burn Xtreme is another in a series of keto diet-related supplements that claims to be able to help you achieve ketosis and reap its benefits without restricting carb intake.

Of course, if you know anything about ketosis you know that is virtually impossible.

There are actually only a few supplements on the market that provide a potent enough mix of exogenous BHB ketones to be able to make that claim.

And Keto Burn Xtreme is not one of those items.

The company behind the product goes to great lengths to conceal their name and location information.

In fact, they work so hard to hide who they are that, if you purchase Keto Burn Xtreme through the official website, the charge on your credit card says “Men’s Supplement” and not the company name.

How’s that for creating a sense of trust and accountability? You have to go into the privacy policy of the site to find the company name, which is Foxglade Ltd, from London, UK.

The product is distributed in the US by a company we’ve seen before in our reviews – Nutra4 LLC – and bears more than a passing resemblance to other Nutra4 LLC products both in packaging and ingredients.

Extensive testing on our part indicates Keto Burn Xtreme simply can’t put you into ketosis, no matter what their marketing says.

If you want to derive any benefit from these kinds of weight loss supplements you’ll need to first get yourself into ketosis by restricting carbs in your diet.

Then, and only then, do you stand a chance of deriving some benefit from Keto Burn Xtreme. If you don’t restrict carbs then all you’re going to do with the ketones you ingest from Keto Burn is pee them out over the course of the day.

What are the ingredients in Keto Burn Xtreme?

The Keto Burn Xtreme ingredient list is a familiar one to read. It includes 3 different kinds of BHB ketone salts and a variety of artificial fillers.

Since this is a pill there is no flavor here. Just exogenous BHB ketones along with rice flour as a filler, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide.

The BHB salts sounds good, since BHB ketones are what the body uses to metabolize fat during ketosis.

But we don’t know what ketone salts they’re using because we couldn’t get the product to initiate ketosis. Only to enhance it once our testers had already achieved it by limiting their carb intake.

Keep in mind that the FDA does not regulate this type of supplement the way it does medications, food additives, preservatives and even skin care products.

Supplements come under a much more open-ended set of guidelines that are not an important priority for the agency.

Therefore outrageous marketing claims are much easier to get away with for this type of product than they are for say, an antidepressant or seizure medication. At least for the time being. Maybe that will change at some point.

That said, the effectiveness, or rather ineffectiveness of the BHB ketones used in these weight loss pills are not the only red flag.

As we mentioned they also contain magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide. Two compounds both the FDA and the EU say need to be studied in more depth because they have both demonstrated the potential to cause health problems.

So to sum up, the Keto Burn ingredient list includes:

•       BHB ketone salts- Ineffective, in this case, at initiating natural ketosis.
•       Magnesium stearate – Also used in skin care products. Potentially problematic. Health questions.
•       Silicon dioxide – Potentially problematic. Health questions.

When you read the information label you might think this supplement is free of caffeine. However, our testers noted the feel of a very real caffeine-type buzz after taking this product.

And that raised a whole bunch of red flags. Because the company cloaks their BHB mixture behind the “proprietary blend” label, we’d be willing to bet that caffeine has been added at some point in the process (to increase energy) and then squirreled away beneath several layers of proprietary blend camouflage.

How to use Keto Burn Xtreme?

Like all similar keto diet pills there’s no mystery here. You take 1 Keto Burn Xtreme capsule 20 minutes or so before eating.

And you do that twice a day for a total of 2 weight loss pills per day.

If you want to enjoy the benefits of the ketogenic diet including weight loss, greater mental clarity, stable blood sugars, reduced appetite and more energy, you’ll make sure those meals are pretty much devoid of carbs.

In addition, our testers experienced a very real and quite significant caffeine-style rush after taking these.

We don’t think that’s just an accident. And in light of those caffeine buzzes the directions to drink a lot of water when taking this weight loss supplement make a lot more sense.

Because if there is dehydrated caffeine powder in these weight loss pills you’ll need plenty of water to avoid developing a stomach ache after taking them.

So make sure you drink 1 or 2 glasses of water with each pill. And if you have a sensitivity to caffeine we’d recommend skipping on these entirely.

Does Keto Burn Xtreme actually work?

As we’ve stated Keto Burn Xtreme does not live up to its promise to initiate ketosis.

So in that regard it does not work. On the other hand, if you are already on the keto diet and in ketosis then it might help to speed up the fat burning process.

In addition, our testing indicates that the ketones here can provide cover for those who wander temporarily from the keto ranch.

That means that if you “slip” and consume 100 mg of carbs one day Keto Burn Xtreme may prevent you from being bumped out of ketosis.

Or at least smooth the transition as you move from burning fats to burning carbs and then back to burning fats.

As to why the makers of this product choose to promote things it can’t do instead of focusing on those things it does reasonably well is not clear.

And we won’t speculate. But the fact is Keto Burn Xtreme can be useful for someone on the keto diet. And that is true whether you are rigorous in your keto adherence or you regularly engage in cheat days.

If what you’re after is a keto supplement that will provide the kick you need to actually jump start ketosis (even if your carb intake is a bit larger than it should be) Famous Keto is one of the few we know that will deliver for you.

Even so, we should emphasize that the right way, the most productive way, the way that is guaranteed to provide you the full benefits of the keto diet, is to put your body into ketosis by restricting your carb intake to 20-30 grams per day.

What are the side effects of Keto Burn Xtreme?

The side effects of Keto Burn Xtreme are difficult to pin down. That’s because in order to do so you need to know exactly what is in it.

But the company chooses to cloak its actual ingredient list and quantities behind the dreaded “proprietary” label.

That said however, here are some of the potential side effects from ingredients we know or suspect are in this item.

• Caffeine- The rushes our testers got from taking this item indicate there is caffeine in the proprietary mix somewhere.

As such, if a person was to take more of this than is recommended in an attempt to spark keto fat burning like it says it will (but won’t) they could wind up with a significant caffeine buzz that disrupts their sleep.

• Magnesium stearate- Magnesium stearate is included here simply to keep the other ingredients from sticking to one another and creating a stone-like object inside the capsule.

But this compound has also attracted the attention of researchers who suspect it may interfere with natural nutrient absorption. Over time that could lead to a host of health issues.

• Silicon dioxide- This is another ingredient that has attracted the critical eye of the scientist. The FDA has stated that more research is needed to determine if this widely used ingredient is actually safe over the long term.

Keep in mind too that if you take more of this item (Keto Burn) than is recommended one of the likely results will be a case of “keto flu”. Keto flu symptoms include dizziness, diarrhea, headaches, muscle aches, upset stomach, insomnia and more.

“Our dietary choices remain our most powerful ally in remaining healthy and combating disease.”

Where can I buy Keto Burn Xtreme?

If you don’t mind spending money on things that aren’t likely to work and are produced by people who don’t want to reveal themselves then you can pick up all the Keto Burn extreme you want at Amazon.

It’s also available through a slew of less reputable Keto Burn Xtreme review websites. (You know, the ones with content that reads like it was created by a computer translation program gone bad.)

Or, you can go right to the source and pick it up from the so-called home page of this most mysterious company. The link to that site is here.

We would urge you to reconsider before you do, however.

Think of it this way: you’re going to put this stuff in your one and only body. Yet the people who make it don’t want you to know who they are.

If someone in a mask just handed you food on the street and then ran away would you eat that food? Hopefully not.

And the same principle should apply here. While there may be nothing inherently wrong with this product the actions of the people behind it suggest something is.

Bottomline: Should you buy Keto Burn Xtreme?

While we’re not fond of those who try to do business out of contact and in the shadows Keto Burn Xtreme is not completely without value.

If you need a supplement to enhance your keto fat burning efforts it may be able to help. On the whole however, we can’t endorse this product simply because it doesn’t do what it says it will.

It says it will put you into ketosis and burn body fat. While it does flood your blood stream with BHB ketones that by itself does not constitute ketosis.

So, unless you arrive at a genuine state of ketosis by way of restricting your carb intake Keto Burn Xtreme isn’t going to do anything for you except maybe give you a caffeine rush and make you pee more.

Save your money and time and buy some Keto Body Tone instead. You’ll get the BHB ketones you need from a company with a solid reputation and in sufficient quantities that it will genuinely burn fat.

In addition, you’ll get only the best ingredients. If it were our money the choice would be clear: Keto Body Tone.
