Calcium - 175 MG
Calcium is a mineral well known for its ability to keep the bones and heart healthy and strong, but it can also increase testosterone production, which will help with building muscle and losing weight, especially in elite athletes, while preventing your from becoming calcium deficient, to support your overall health.
The problem is, calcium will only produce its optimal effects if you consume at least 1,000 mg per day (1). That means unless you eat or drink a significant amount in your diet already, the 175 mg of calcium in Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills will do nothing at all.
Chromium (As Crominex 3+ Chromium With Capros Amla Fruit Extract & PrimaVie Shilajit) - 200 MCG
Chromium is a mineral and metal element that is often added to weight loss supplements as it makes all of the other natural ingredients that they contain easier to absorb and more effective, while also directly benefiting the human body in many different ways.
It can improve your insulin response, nutrient metabolism, serotonin production, energy levels, sleep quality, cognitive functions, and muscle recovery, reduce appetite and blood sugar levels, aid weight loss, prevent weight gain, and help combat diabetes (2).
PrimaVie Shilajit is a patented resin extracted from Himalayan rocks that has a high mineral content and contains a substance called fulvic acid. Long used in ayurvedic medicine, it is claimed to be able to boost your testosterone levels, muscle growth, and overall health, and prevent the signs of aging (3).
Amla fruit also has a long history of use in ayurvedic medicine, as it is claimed to have a high vitamin content, improve heart health and sugar metabolism, protect the brain, reduce the signs of aging, boost hair growth, and keep your body generally healthy (4).
Unfortunately, there are multiple issues with how all three components of Crominex 3+ have been used.
Not only are shilajit and amla fruit extracts not conclusively proven to provide the benefits that they claim to, but studies also show that all three ingredients need to be used in far greater quantities than what can possibly be present here to do anything at all.
This means the Crominex 3+ in Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills is guaranteed to be of no use.
Slimquick Pure Extra Strength Keto Complex - 470 MG
Caffeine Anhydrous - 250 MG
Caffeine anhydrous is a dehydrated, more concentrated and potent form of regular caffeine, which itself is one of the most potent and popular stimulants on Earth and is widely used in everything from a tea, coffee, or energy drink to foods or workout supplements.
Consuming caffeine will give you more energy, allowing you to complete longer, harder workouts and burn more calories, while it also promotes thermogenesis, causing your internal body temperature to rise, which accelerates your metabolism and the rate at which your body burns fat (5).
With between 200 and 300 mg usually being the optimal dose of caffeine to help with losing weight, the 250 mg present in Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills makes caffeine a rare instance where the supplement actually uses a suitable dose of a proven and effective ingredient.
KetoGreen Green Tea
Green Tea Extract (Camellia Sinensis Leaf, 19% Catechins, 13% EGCG)
Green tea extract is made from the camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf and it is a fantastic source of both natural caffeine and a potent antioxidant catechin called EGCG. Between these two compounds, they can help to improve your health and promote weight loss in a great number of ways.
They boost metabolism, energy levels, and fat breakdown, promote healthy blood sugar and lipid levels, reduce appetite, anxiety, stress, and your blood pressure and cholesterol levels, support your brain, heart, and overall health and functions, and help your body fight off a variety of different illnesses.
The issue is, research shows that you need to consume a minimum of 500 mg of green tea extract per day for it to be able to do any of this (6). As Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills cannot even contain half of this amount, the presence of green tea in them will be of absolutely no use at all.
Phospholipids (From Sunflower Lecithin)
Sunflower phospholipids are a great source of healthy fats, choline, and vitamins and minerals. They can reduce cholesterol and fatigue, improve your energy levels and brain, heart and skin health and functions, and enhance the stability and texture of powder contained within each pill.
However, for it to do anything more than stabilise the pill, 2,400 mg of sunflower phospholipids must be consumed each day. With Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills containing an absolute maximum of less than 5 percent of this amount, its presence is guaranteed to provide no health benefits at all (7).
MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides) Oil Powder
Medium chain triglycerides are a type of healthy fat commonly found in food sources such as coconuts, as well as palm kernel oil and dairy fats. They are widely used for the many health benefits they offer.
This includes promoting weight loss, improving your energy levels and stamina, enhancing your memory and brain and heart health and functions, boosting digestion, nutrient absorption, and your metabolic rate, and regulating your blood sugar levels and helping to combat diabetes (8).
The problem is, you will only see any of these benefits if you consume at least 5 grams of medium chain triglycerides per day. As Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills contain at absolute best 2 percent of this amount, the presence of MCTs in each pill is assured to be absolutely worthless.
Chaste Tree Extract (Vitex Agnus Castus Fruit, 12:1)
The chaste tree is native to the Mediterranean and chaste tree extract is rich in vitamin c and has long been claimed to benefit women in a variety of different ways.
It is said to promote water weight loss, prevent weight gain, and help combat premenstrual syndrome and various menopause symptoms like hot flashes, irritability, breast pain, mood swings, night sweats, food cravings, fatigue, insomnia, depression, poor sleep quality, and unbalanced hormones.
Unfortunately, most of the studies into the effects of chaste fruit extract have been done on animals, and there is little to no conclusive evidence that they actually transfer to humans when included in medications or supplements (9).
This means there is a very good chance that the presence of chaste fruit extract in Slimquick Pure Extra Strength keto diet pills will do nothing at all.
