Review Summary
|
|
Fastrim™ is a supplement which promises rapid weight loss. In some of its more outrageous advertising, it is claimed that users can lose up to 20 pounds within a very short period of time. Aside from its name, New Image, there is no other information given about the manufacturer. Needless to say, this raises our concern because consumers’ questions and concerns cannot be effectively addressed if even the company’s contact information is not provided.
Because of the immense number of diet products available on the market, many consumers become overwhelmed trying to pick the right supplement. We always encourage consumers to first do a research on a product before use to make sure it is safe, effective and does not contain ingredients which may cause them to experience allergic reactions. We try to help out by scrutinizing the formula of different products. In this review, we shall focus on the Fastrim™ formula to find out whether or not it would help dieters better manage their weight loss program.

Ingredients at a Glance
|
|
The website does not display the exact formulation of Fastrim™ although it may be written on the label. What is posted are only a few of the ingredients although the dosage levels of the other components are not disclosed. This can be disappointing for dieters who want to find out exactly what is contained in a supplement before making a purchase.
Some of the ingredients for this product include: Green Tea Extract, Mustard Powder and Guarana.

Ingredients in Focus
|
|
Based on what is disclosed about this product’s formula, we can tell that the ingredients used are typical, meaning they are also found in many different types of dietary products. We doubt whether any of the above-mentioned ingredients would yield the promised results. In fact none have been scientifically proven to create significant weight loss.
There are known stimulants in Fastrim™ and as mentioned, these affect the central nervous system. We always advise consumers to look for supplements that use a non-stimulant fat burner to avoid side-effects such as jitters, nausea and insomnia which stimulants often trigger.

Diet Lifestyle
|
|
Because of its caffeine content, this product is best taken way before bedtime to prevent the disruption of sleep patterns. It would also be better to take doses on a full stomach to avert or at least lessen the nauseating effects of the stimulants.
A better alternative for dieters would be a supplement that has a complete formulation which includes a proven appetite suppressant and a patented fat burner. We prefer products that include the extract taken from the South African herb Hoodia Gordonii. This ingredient has been proven in clinical trials to effectively curb hunger and reduce food cravings.

Final Thoughts
|
|
By its name alone, Fastrim™ is sure to attract the interest of dieters. Based on our experience, products which make outrageous claims more often than not, fail to deliver because quality weight loss can only be achieved through hard work over time. A supplement that has a complete formulation which includes an appetite suppressant and a patented fat burner, would enable users to maximize their weight loss efforts.
At almost $60 for a month’s supply, we find this product to be quite expensive. However, this product is listed online as either out-of-stock or discontinued. When manufacturers cease producing a dietary supplement, it is often due to the formula being harmful or ineffective. It is not clear why Fatrim™ is no longer be obtained but we strongly advise dieters to practice caution should this product be available again in the future.
