Dim Plex

Dim Plex contains Diindolylmethane, Advantra-Z and Green Tea Extract as well as other ingredients listed on the website. Let’s take a quick look at these ingredients and their helpfulness in weight loss.

Advantra-Z is a derivative of Bitter Orange Extract, which is often used as an alternative to Ephedra. It is thought to increase metabolism, which could help burn up calories.

Diindolylmethane (Dim), is an established indole-3-carbinol, an element which is is found in broccoli, cauliflower and other vegtables. It is believed to promote valuable estrogen metabolism in women and men.

Green Tea Extract is used in many weight loss formulas because it is thought to control appetite and increase thermogenesis. It has been used extensively as a therapeutic herb in Asia. Green Tea Extract contains natural caffeine, which is a stimulant, which can cause many side effects if over used.

In general, Dim Plex would be best suited for individuals looking for a stimulant based product. We were glad to see that this product contains Diindolylmethane, which shows some promise in hormone balancing, which may help regulate metabolism.

Dim Plex contains Green Tea Extract in its formulary, which contains high levels of caffeine, a known stimulant. Caffeine, even naturally based caffeine, may have some side effects; such as tremors, sleeplessness and nervousness.

This warning appears on Dim Plex’s website “Not for use if pregnant. Seek advice from physician or health care practitioner before use if on prescription medication”.

We believe that Dim Plex is a little stimulant heavy using the Green Tea Extract. It would be best suited for anyone looking for an intense stimulant based product. However, stimulants often need additional help to create weight loss; such as the addition of a good appetite suppressant, like Hoodia, at an additional expense.

Overall, we feel that stimulants are not a viable substitute for a balanced diet or a moderate exercise program, which has been shown by research, to be an integral part of any sustained weight loss program.

By design Dim Plex, is a stimulant based approach for weight loss, with a potential hormone balancer thrown into the mix. These types of products often require additional supplement support to be truly effective at suppressing appetite, at an additional cost to the consumer.

Stimulant based products that suggest they will provide increased energy and metabolism are often very trendy at the gym. This product retails for $25.90.
