Hi-Tech Pharma’s Lipodrene line is one of our most extensive fat burner series. Lipodrene uses a 3-way fat-burning system to help you achieve your weight loss goals. This system includes:

  • Helping you burn away calories and fat
  • Helping to control sugar cravings
  • Suppresses your appetite

Fat burners aim to help increase the efficiency with your body burns calories through your metabolism and are commonly referred to as thermogenic. When you’re body is burning calories, it generates more heat. This process is referred to as thermogenesis, which literally means the production of heat.† The Lipodrene series is an example of good thermogenic, but each version shines in its own way.

Why Have So Many Versions Of Lipodrene?

Simple, so there’s a version for everyone. Each Lipodrene has something that makes it a little different. But that doesn’t mean one is better than another. 

We are all different, and our experiences and results will differ as well. Because of this, what works for some individuals may not work for you. That’s why we like to see brands with a variety of products to select from. 

So before deciding on which Lipodrene (or any fat burner) you want to go with, you should have a good understanding of what you’re looking for from it. 

It’s also important to note that the FDA recommends healthy adults consume a max of 400mg of caffeine in a day. (1) This is equal to about four 8oz coffees. Yet there are products that have 400mg of caffeine per serving.

This is why you may want to assess your tolerance to stimulants. As well as go on routine “breaks” to allow your body to regain its sensitivity.

Section Divider: Lipodrene Core Ingredient

Lipodrene Core Ingredient:

Given that each Lipodrene version is different, we see some ingredients in each fat burner.

Lipodrene Key Ingredients

We will refer to these as the core ingredients:

  • Caffeine
  • Senegalia Berlandieri Extract
  • Green Tea Extract
  • Theobromine Anhydrous
  • Yohimbe Extract
  • Citrus Aurantium Extract
  • Naringin
  • 5-Methoxytryptamine HCl

How Do The Core Ingredients Aid In Weight Loss?

Caffeine: (2)

Caffeine is a great foundation stimulant. It’s the most common stimulant found in food as well as supplements. Caffeine can aid in increasing your metabolism and energy and suppress your appetite.


Senegalia Berlandieri: (3)

Senegalia Berlandieri is an effective stimulant commonly compared to Acacia Rigidula Extract. It’s great for increasing energy and suppressing appetite. While also providing a feeling of euphoria.

Plus, it has benefits from the PEA alkaloids it yields, which promote focus and more mood-boosting properties.


Green Tea Extract: (4)

Lipodrene also has Green Tea Extract. There is a ton of research on Green Tea’s effect on weight loss.

Some of the more recognized benefits include:

  • Improving your body’s efficiency at burning calories
  • Improve exercise performance
  • Reduce visceral (belly fat) and inflammation

Theobromine Anhydrous: (5)

Theobromine is a compound found in cacao plants and tea leaves. It has stimulant properties, so its most prominent effect would be the energy boost. Like other stimulants, it also has appetite-suppressing properties.


Yohimbe Extract: (6)

Yohimbine is a mild stimulant. So it can help suppress appetite, but there’s more to its fat-burning properties. The main way that it burns fat is by blocking alpha-2 adrenergic receptors in fat cells. Once its bounds with a fat cell, it “turns off” the alpha receptor, which allows the fat cells to mobilize and burn off.


Citrus Aurantium Extract: (7)

Citrus Aurantium Extract or Synephrine HCl is like ephedrine. This stimulant is also a strong appetite suppressant.

It works by acting like adrenaline when ingested. This helps increase metabolism and boost energy without increasing blood pressure.


Naringen: (8)

Naringin helps burn fat by increasing the production of a fat-burning hormone, adiponectin. When combined with synephrine, it may even increase energy expenditure.


5-Methoxytryptamine HCl: (9)

5-MT is a precursor to melatonin. Why include a sleep aid in a fat burner? Besides its role in sleep, it has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It’s also involved with regulating blood pressure, immune function, and body temperature.

Section Divider: Lipodrene With Ephedra

Lipodrene With Ephedra:

Lipodrene-with-Ephedra

This is the original Lipodrene, although it’s not the original formula. We feature this version on all our best fat burner posts. But it may not be enough if you’re experienced with thermogenic fat burners in general. Lipodrene with ephedra from Hi-Tech is a mild thermogenic. So instead, we would recommend this version for new users. Or for people looking for a step up from Hydroxyelite.

For information on Hydroxyelite and Lipodrene, CLICK HERE.

Firstly, there are a variety of stimulants in Lipodrene. Some of the more potent stimulants include:

  • Caffeine
  • Ephedra Extract (10)
  • Senegalia Berlandieri
  • Synephrine HCl
  • 2-Aminoisoheptane HCl
  • Theophylline (11)

Following the stims, the next couple of ingredients are not as strong but do exhibit a stimulant effect. These include:

  • Theobromine
  • Green Tea Extract
  • Yohimbine HCl

Furthermore, for appetite suppressants, there is only one ingredient with this purpose. But keep in mind all the above stimulants will play a role in appetite suppression.

  • Hoodia Gordonii (12)

There are a couple of ingredients that will help promote thermogenesis;

  • Naringin
  • 6,7 dihydroxybergamottin (13)

But it also has ingredients like mood and a cognitive booster.

  • 5-Methoxytryptamine HCl
  • L-5-Hydroxytryptophan(14)

 5-HTP is a precursor to serotonin. Meaning once consumed, a chemical reaction occurs to produce serotonin. So why not just take serotonin?

Serotonin is too large of a molecule to pass through the Blood-Brain Barrier. Precursors are much smaller and thus can pass through the Blood-Brain Barrier.

The last ingredient is:

  • Cassia Nomame (15)

Cassia Nomame may prevent the stomach and intestines from absorbing dietary fat. This causes the excretion of dietary fat, which might promote weight loss in some people.

Lipodrene With Ephedra Review By Michael: “This is as close as I’ve come to finding a fat burner that is like the original Hydroxycut! Their might be others out there but I love this one!!”  Posted on 1/23/23

Section Divider: Lipodrene Hardcore

Lipodrene Hardcore:

Lipodrene hardcore with Ephedra

Secondly, we have Lipodrene Hardcore with Ephedra. Lipodrene hardcore contains two proprietary blends totaling up to 700mg of active ingredients. Generally, if you liked Lipodrene with ephedra (yellow tablet) but wanted more energy, we’d say this is for you.

Why?

When you look at the formula, you’ll see we have some of those core ingredients again. But you also have more of the shared ingredients between these formulas that aren’t in the other fat burners. This includes Ephedra and Cassia Nomame.

Although ephedra is not as potent as ephedrine, they work in the same ways. Thus provides similar weight loss results. Its main use of it is as an energy booster, but it has other features as well. Ephedra may

  • Increase your metabolism
  • Improve cognition
  • Reduce inflammation of mucous membranes in the body

What’s Different:

Besides all that, Lipodrene Hardcore also contains:

  • Evodiamine (16)
  • Guayusa Extract (17)
  • Theobroma Cocoa
  • Theophylline

Guayusa Extract and Theophylline promote even more energy and appetite suppression, while Evodiamine promotes thermogenesis.

Lastly, the Theobroma Cocoa may promote an increase in energy. But it won’t be as potent as caffeine or any other stimulant in this blend. Generally, its more noticeable effect would be the mood/cognition boosting effects.

Lipodrene Hardcore Review By Michelle: “I was absolutely crazy about Krazi Burn until I found Lipodrene. I had these little bursts of energy throughout the day. Don’t take on an empty stomach or with coffee it really does kill cravings!!!” Posted on 1/10/23

Section Divider: Lipodrene Xtreme

Lipodrene Xtreme:

Lipodrene xtreme

In Lipodrene Xtreme V2, we have two blends.

  • A general Proprietary Blend containing 395mg of active ingredients
  • Citrus-Rx™ Blend containing 250mg of active ingredients

The Blends:

Our only non-core ingredient stimulant is:

  • 2-Aminoisoheptane HCl (18)

Which is like DMAA but not as potent. DMHA is often in medication to promote lung/air capacity. But it also has vaso-constricting properties.

For appetite suppression, we have:

  • Hoodia Gordonii

But, again, all the stimulants in both blends will play a role in appetite suppression.

For metabolism boosters, we have:

  • Raspberry Ketones (19)

From the Citrus-Rx™ blend, we have: (20,21)

  • Citrus Natsudaidai Hayata Extract
  • Citrus Juno Siebal
  • Ex Tanaka extract
  • Citrus Limonium Extract
  • Citrus Aurantium Extract

In the Citrus-Rx Blend, we have five citrus extracts. Citrus Aurantium Extract is the most common extract we see in fat burners. But what’s more important is that a ton of research is backing up its effect. In general, the citrus extract will help kick-start fat breakdown and suppress your appetite. While also providing an energy boost.

Lipodrene Xtreme Review By Brenda: “This is the only fat burner that works for me and I have tried MANY. I get energy that lasts all day, cravings are obsolete, and I sweat more in the gym. 10/10 Will continue buying.” Posted on 9/9/22

Section Divider: Lipodrene Elite

Lipodrene Elite:

Lipodrene Elite

Our last fat burner is Lipodrene Elite. Which is also one of the newest fat burners to the Lipodrene line. But one of the more popular ones too. What separates the Elite from the other fat burners is two ingredients:

  •  Erythroxylum Coca Extract (22)
  • Caralluma Extract (23)

Erythroxylum Coca Extract comes from the coca plant. This ingredient dives into a few fat-burning categories. This plant is popular in indigenous tribes for increasing energy and curbing appetite. While also promoting weight loss. It is infamous for being in cocaine. But the cocaine alkaloids were removed. As a result, you are left with its natural alkaloids, amines, and nutrients. Which may increase metabolic rate, decrease appetite, and help increase fat oxidation. Caralluma Extract is a cactus that has been used since antiquity in Indian medicine and food. Studies show it helps provide significant weight loss by providing powerful appetite suppression.

Lipodrene Elite Review Linda: “A little strong for me at this time. I cut them in 1/2. Take one in the morning and then the other1/2 in a few hours. Works for me :-)” Posted on 7/26/22

Section Divider: What To Expect

What To Expect:

Lipodrene weight loss stack

Firstly, you will need to make sure your diet is on point. A fat burner is a supplement, meaning it comes “in addition to” rather than “in substitution of.” So you won’t get the desired results without correcting your diet and exercise regimen.

Secondly, it may be time to take a break from stimulants. When your tolerance is very high, you naturally will take more of a product to get the same effects. Eventually, the product will feel as if it has lost its effect. When in reality, you’ve just become used to it. Try taking two weeks off of stimulants and then reintroducing them.

Finally, you can incorporate other products to make a weight loss stack. 

You could also go with a stack with one of the above Lipodrene versions. For those options: CLICK HERE.

Section Divider: Wrapping Up

Wrapping Up!

While all these products are mild to strong fat burners, we would rate Lipodrene Elite and Lipodrene Xtreme V2 as the better energy fat burners. At the same time, the others are better for overall fat burn and appetite suppression. And if you’re still unsure which fat burner to try, email us, and we’ll help you decide! Thank you for reading!
