When purchasing any weight loss product, it is important to do your research. Many people are exchanging their opinions about Active 8 on DietBlogTalk.com

Overview
Active 8 is really a collection of four formulas that are supposed to control hunger and caloric intake, inhibit the release of insulin, and release energy that is stored in the body in what the manufacturers refer to as thermogenesis. The theory behind the development of the Active 8 formulas is said to be when 72 trace ingredients come together in harmony (does this sound to you like a song lyric from the 60s?), they can overcome the effects of consuming processed foods. A perusal of the ingredients doesn’t list anything remarkable other than Garcinia Cambogia and possibly the use of chromium as well.
Ingredients at a Glance
The primary ingredients worth noting in the Active 8 formulas are magnesium, potassium, Garcinia Cambogia, chromium and Green tea extract. As far as those 72 trace ingredients, due to “trade secret” nature, the exact amounts are not given but the list begins with antimony and ends with zirconium.
Ingredients in Focus
A research study is mentioned on the website that was conducted on the ingredient Garcinia Cambogia. Garcinia Cambogia is one of the potentially helpful ingredients in the Active 8 formulas because studies have shown that the ingredient may regulate the appetite. The other ingredients, however, are not what you would hope for in a weight loss-enhancing supplement.
Positives
• Contains Garcinia Cambogia
Negatives
• Active 8 lacks a reliable appetite suppressant or strong thermogenic
• The use of 72 trace ingredients is excessive and may not be necessary for weight loss or overall health.
• Active 8 relies on Green tea extract, a caffeinated ingredient, to promote its ability to suppress the appetite.
Final Thoughts
Active 8 appears to be an adequate mineral supplement but as a weight loss supplement, it’s lacking the reliable ingredients that we’ve come to expect with modern research results. The manufacturers include Garcinia Cambogia and that is one ingredient that shows up fairly often in the more reliable weight loss supplements, but it is always combined with more than just potassium and magnesium.
