Dietrine Overview
With the Atkins diet becoming so popular over the last few years, consumers are very concerned about the amount of carbohydrates in their diet. The makers of Dietrine take this concern one step further by offering a carbohydrate ‘blocking’ product.The Dietrine website gives good information regarding the process by which carbohydrates in food are processed and turned into sugars which, if not used up as energy, eventually become stored in the body, thus causing weight gain. The Dietrine formula is designed to ‘neutralize’ the digestive enzyme responsible for this process, alpha amylase, which in turn prevents carbohydrates from being absorbed. The active carb blocker in Dietrine is Phase 2, and has been clinically tested, the results of which are shown on the website. The amount of weight loss to be expected when taking Dietrine is a very modest ½ lb – 1lb, which is well within medical guidelines. The website also offers a very good FAQ section and health links to other organizations such as the American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association. In addition to this, all customers receive a free weight loss audio download and weight loss techniques book with their order, plus, receive membership to the Dietrine weight management club.
Dietrine - Product Description
Dietrine consists of just three ingredients and is not presented as a proprietary blend. The Phase 2 extract is derived from white kidney beans which studies have shown to be effective carbohydrate blockers, using the process as described above. Each 2 capsule serving delivers 1000 mg of this extract. The other two ingredients in Dietrine are Chromium and Vanadium. Both of these are beneficial to maintaining healthy and stable blood sugar levels. The chromium also helps produce lean body mass, whilst the Vanadium is responsible for cellular metabolism and helps inhibit cholesterol synthesis. The recommended dosage is 1 capsule before meals, twice daily.
Dietrine Advantage
- The product contains no harsh stimulants.
- Phase 2 has been found to be an effective carbohydrate blocker.
- The company offers free gifts with each order.
- The website is very user-friendly.
- The product comes with a 90-day money back guarantee.
- There do not appear to be any consumer complaints filed against the Dietrine manufacturers.
Dietrine - Drawbacks
- The ‘2 free bottles’ offer advertised at the top of the website is misleading (it only applies to the maximum order of 4 bottles).
- The product contains no powerful fat burning ingredients or anti-oxidants.
- The testimonials section is very short and uninformative.
Dietrine - The Bottom Line
Dietrine would only be a useful product for those concerned with the amount of carbohydrates in their diet and is not a good, overall weight loss pill. Price-wise, it is in the mid-range, costing $40.74 for a one month supply, although the company offers discounts with larger orders. If carbohydrate blocking is the aim, Dietrine would certainly be worth considering, purely for the fact that it contains Phase 2, something many other similar products do not.
