Review
Summary |
Large Pink Hearts are caffeine pills. They are touted as able to increase energy levels and relieve physical and mental exhaustion. Tying them into being a diet supplement is the belief that the increased energy can be used to maximize aerobic activity. |
| Ingredients At A Glance |
|
Large Pink Hearts are largely made up of caffeine and formed into large, pink heart-shaped tablets. Each tablet contains 200mg of caffeine anhydrous, which is roughly the equivalent of one cup of coffee. The caffeine increases the heart rate and circulation and it is this which is said to enhance one’s workout. Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant and is associated with a list of adverse side effects. In fact, due to these side effects many nutritionists urge consumers to avoid stimulant-based dietary supplements since they may cause insomnia, nausea and jitteriness. There have been some reports that consumers will discontinue use of a caffeine-based product since they feel too uncomfortable during use. Caffeine is often used in weight loss products since it is purported to burn fat while increasing energy. While its boost of energy is only temporary its fat burning abilities may not be lasting.
We do not consider this formulation to be complete since there is no appetite suppressant included. Decreasing caloric intake is often a successful first step to create weight loss and an appetite suppressant can hold control both hunger and food cravings.

| Website In Focus |
|
The DNE Vitamins website carries many different products. There is some factual information included on the Large Pink Hearts page, but it isn’t very in-depth. It is primarily a retail site. In addition to having a Customer Care Center toll-free number, email address and fax number, there is a Live Chat room available seven days a week. There is a detailed warning section on the Large Pink Hearts page, which touches on whom should not use this product (pregnant and nursing women) and some of its side effects. Those side effects are jitteriness, nervousness and insomnia, especially if taken too often.

The marketing of these caffeine pills in the shape of pink hearts makes them appeal to teenage girls, a group for whom the use of these pills is not advised.
The warning label does not include any words directed toward those people whose medical conditions make it very unwise to use caffeine

| Final Thoughts |
|
The use of this product is neither a responsible nor a sensible way to lose weight. Any weight lost would be temporary in nature ad there may be damage done in the interim. Caffeine has been proven to cause insomnia, nervousness, elevated heart rate and a rise in blood pressure. This product should not be used by pregnant or nursing women or anyone taking blood thinners. Additionally, the company places no importance on the value of diet and exercise in addition to the use of their product. Large Pink Hearts are no better or no worse than the average speed pill in content, generating it in the form of a cutesy little shape, which has the high potential to attract young users, makes it just a little worse than the others.
We definitely do not recommend this product as a diet solution. The user will become jittery – and the product contains no appetite controller. There are far more advanced products on the market.
