Does C-Gone Work?

What ‘C’ do we want gone?  No it’s not’ cellulite’, although that’s certainly something I’d rather have disappear forever (or perhaps attach itself to Meghan Fox.)   The’ C’ in’ C-Gone’ is actually a reference to carbohydrates, something nearly as scary as cellulite. But while we commonly consider carbs to be evil and the maker of fat, they are actually essential to our energy levels-if eaten correctly.  Whole grain and fruit carbohydrates are very good for you, and are needed.  Unfortunately, if eaten in excess, carbs also trigger an insulin response, and considering insulin is known as the ‘fattening hormone’, you can probably see how that’s detrimental to your health.  Too much insulin tells our bodies to store fat.  This we do not want to do.  Not unless we’re moving to the desert where food will be in short supply!

C-Gone claims to be able to maintain healthy blood sugar (insulin) levels, improve metabolism and reduce sugar cravings, while actually shuttling carbohydrates into your muscles to fuel them!  This will create energy and renewed vigor during strength training!

How is this done? And will it work?  Let’s look at the ingredients:

Chromium Picolinate 240 mcg: an essential mineral that promotes a strong and healthy metabolism by helping the body absorb glucose more efficiently so it can be used for energy rather than be stored as fat.  This ingredient has been clinically tested and proven to aid in weight loss, and was even found in trial to lessen the craving for carbohydrates!  An excellent ingredient!

Vanadyl Sulfate 15 mg: an ultra-trace mineral which works like insulin to increase the amount of glucose (sugar) and amino acids driven into the muscle.  It improves energy levels and maintains blood sugar levels in the normal range.  Because of its efficient use of insulin, it increases protein synthesis, and the use of the body’s fat storage for fuel. 

Gymnema Sylvestre 100 mg: an herb that reduces sugar cravings, and blocks the absorption of sugar.

Acetyl-L-Carnitine 500 mg: also known as the ‘energy nutrient’, this amino acid helps the body burn fat for energy.  In  ‘acetyl’ usage, it can also be utilized by the brain to aid with mental concentration.

L-Glutamine 500 mg-an amino acid that improves recovery time from your workouts and like Acetyl-L-Carnitine, aids with mental concentration.

Alpha Lipoic Acid 200 mg: this fatty acid is an antioxidant that not only kills harmful free radicals, but also helps the body produce insulin.  When used in conjunction with Acetyl-L-Carnitine, it’s very good for heart health and to improve the appearance of skin.

Is C-Gone Guaranteed?

If you purchase through Pride Nutrition, they do offer a 30-day (from date of purchase) money back guarantee (less shipping.)  However, its $69.99 through Pride Nutrition, and you can get it for as low as $24.95 if you shop around.  As far as guaranteed weight loss goes,consumers reviewed positively on this product.  Most claimed getting a ‘pumped’ feeling, even before training began, and saw muscle weight improve and their bodies take on a lean, cut look. 

C-Gone Pros

• Ingredient dosages are high.
• Consumers seem happy.
• Money back guarantee through Pride Nutrition.

C-Gone Cons

• Only one clinically (scientifically) tested and proven ingredient-Chromium Picolinate.

This product is more for body builders for want to bulk up and gain muscle, versus a weight loss product for women.

Is C-Gone Worth Trying?

If you purchase C-Gone for as cheap as you can get it, I’d say yes.  The ingredients seem sound, and the dosages are certainly high enough; but the lack of clinically proven ingredients does give me pause.  Buy it and try it.  You’ll more than likely lose your money if it doesn’t work; which let’s face it, is always a risk when you order any weight loss supplement, but most body building consumers loved this product.  Order it conservatively, don’t get too ‘pumped up’ about it, and you won’t be disappointed!
