Product Review: CarbTrim Iced Tea Mix Lemon Flavor

Tuesday, October 08, 2013

     Today, I decided to add another topic on my blog and it's about health and fitness wellness. A lot of my relatives and friends asked me why I lost so much weight after giving birth. Actually, this so called journey didn't started after pregnancy but during my high school years. I'm always on a diet ever since and to tell you honestly, I've tried different techniques on how to loose weight fast but the faster you loose weight, the more weight you will gain after that diet period. This is what they called as the rebound effect. So the best way to loose weight is through healthy lifestyle- balance nutrition and exercise. In my experience, diet supplements like fat burners, appetite suppressants, and the like just adds a little boost on losing or maintaining weight. I noticed that the obvious effects of slimming pills and coffees that I've tried before was just help me loose the water weight that I have. Since I don't value exercise before and I want to lose weight the easy way, my skin sagged and got stretch marks here and there. My skin also got a bit wrinkled because I lost so much water and become zombie like due to insomia- another negative effect of slimming pills, juices, and coffees. But not all slimming products in the market are alike. So as years pass by, more innovation about healthy lifestyle became available to health conscious individuals. As I've said earlier, we also need a "boost" to make our healthy lifestyle more achievable. In my honest opinion, there should always be a balance between diet and exercise and a little supplement that will help us achieve our goal. It's like drinking your daily vitamins and supplements. I think there's nothing wrong if we will incorporate healthy drinks in our meals and aside from that we get benefits that will help us achieve our fitness goals.

     Presenting CarbTrim,  a weight management solution that blocks up to 66% of carbs in the food you eat. This comes in a powdered iced tea form, available in two flavors: lemon and apple.
CarbTrim Iced Tea Mix Lemon Flavor
Based on research studies, white kidney bean extract may help reduce the absorption of dietary carbohydrates.
    I got my samples of CarbTrim from Sample Room. I was surprised when I saw that I'll be getting 2 boxes of this refreshing Iced Tea Mix that's why when I got hold of this, I strictly followed the instructions on how to drink this. But because I only have twelve pieces to consume, I have to take it once a day before breakfast where I eat the majority of my carbs plus for the whole day plus I added an extra dessert just to test if I'll gain weight. I'm not sure if twelve days was enough to say my thoughts on CarbTrim but there's one thing that I noticed while drinking this every morning after meals, I felt full already and my hunger was satisfied immediately. So aside from blocking carbs it was like an appetite suppressant without the bad effects. I eat heavy breakfast with loads of carbs and CarbTrim's carb blocking ability was tested here.

CarbTrim Iced Tea Mix Lemon Flavor
I dissolve 1 sachet of CarbTrim with 250ml of cold water.
CarbTrim Iced Tea Mix Lemon Flavor
I drink this refreshing carb blocker drink 30 mins before breakfast where I eat the largest portion of my carbs for the whole day. 


What I like:
  • The taste- it's like Eight O'clock Iced Tea drink which for me tastes okay.
  • It's very easy and convenient to use.
  • Made me feel full even before I finished eating my breakfast.
  • Suppressed my appetite longer unlike before I started drinking it.
  • Doesn't gave me negative side effects like headache, insomia and palpitation unlike those slimming pills and capsules.
  • Easily available.
  • I lost a total of 2 lbs in 12 days which I think is good enough to say that it helped loose unwanted fats specially on my tummy.
  • Has batch, manufacturing and expiry dates printed on the package.
What i don't like:
  • Sometimes I feel bloated after drinking a glass.
  • Can be a bit pricey if I'll drink 3 glasses of this product everyday.
  • Inflatulence- there are times that I felt there's more gas on my stomach.
Will I repurchase? Yes for the holiday season only where I pig out most of the time.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4/5 rating. Even though this product is dubbed as carb blocker, we should not rely on this alone. We need carbohydrates because it gives us energy but we should not eat all the carbs in the world and say there's CarbTrim to the rescue. Always remember that it's not only Carbohydrates that makes us fat. There's also the calories, oily and salty foods that we need to moderate if we want to live healthy. But the most important thing again is to have healthy lifestyle. Eat clean, exercise and drink supplements that will boost our immune system. 

     have you tried drinking CarbTrim? What's your secret to loosing weight? Thanks!~

Good Times!~

    1. If you're breastfeeding, better lose weight the natural way. Proper diet and exercise muna. Mahirap kasi, we're not sure if maabsorb ng body natin and masasama sa milk yung mga ingredients nito.

    1. based on my experience kasi on taking this kinds of weight loss supplement, dapat kasabay yung proper diet and exercise para hindi mag depende yung weight loss sa supplement lang. Yes, once na nag stop ka mag take nito and hindi ka nag control sa food and walang exercise, babalik at babalik talaga yung weight na minsan doble pa.

    1. Hindi, it's a refreshing drink kaya mas madali inumin unlike yung mga tea na sa hot water mo ititimpla.

    1. Hi,

      I'm not really sure. You may ask at Mercury Drugstores as they carry different weight loss supplement that sometimes is not available in the supermarket.
