X50 Showtime Review

July 14, 2018 By Editor

X50 Showtime Review

X50 Showtime is a fat-burning supplement made by Tribeca Health.

It’s designed to improve fat-loss and mood levels while dieting.

Tribeca Health is an Australian supplement company.

Ingredients Label

Active Ingredients

Acetyl-L-Carnitine

L-carnitine is a compound used in fat metabolism.

It can significantly boost fat-burning in those who are deficient, and also has been shown to have benefits for concentration and insulin sensitivity (1, 2).

An effective dose is 2,000mg.

Green Tea

Green tea extract is a powerful fat-burner.

Research has shown that taking green tea extract increases fat oxidation levels by over 17% during exercise (3).

An effective dose is 500mg of extract.

Green Coffee Extract

Green coffee beans contain chlorogenic acid, a carbohydrate blocker.

It limits the absorption of glucose by the body, contributing to fat-loss and possibly heart health (4).

The effective dose is between 120-300mg.

Caffeine

Caffeine can increase energy levels, as well as fat-loss by increasing metabolic rate (5).

An effective dose for fat-loss is around 200mg.

Theanine

Theanine is an amino acid which can improve general relaxation and focus.

It can also take the jittery edge away from stimulants such as caffeine (6).

The effective dose is 100-200mg.

Coleus Forskohlii

Coleus forskohlii is herb which may increase testosterone levels.

It’s been shown to have positive effects on body composition (7).

Higenamine

Higenamine is a stimulant and fat-burner.

It’s been compared to ephedrine, a now-banned fat burning ingredient.

More research on higenamine is needed.

Synephrine

Synephrine is a widely used fat-burning ingredient which is found naturally in the bitter orange fruit.

It’s been shown to suppress appetite and speed up fat-loss, when taken over several weeks (8).

Who Takes It?

Athletes wanting to improve their energy, focus, and speed of fat-loss while dieting may enjoy using X50 Showtime.

How to Take

Mix 1 scoop (5.3g) with 250mL water, and consume 30 minutes before cardio or your usual workout.

Side Effects

The stimulants in X50 Showtime may trigger rapid heartbeat or anxiety if taken above the recommended dose.

Green coffee extract may have a mild laxative effect.

Pros

  • Speeds up fat-loss
  • Improves mood and energy
  • Available in a range of flavours.

Cons

  • Ingredient doses aren’t disclosed
  • May not contain clinically effective doses of ingredients.

Conclusion

X50 Showtime is a fat-burner which caters to most aspects of dieting, including speeding up fat-loss, as well as improving mood and energy levels.

The ingredient profile looks great, however due to the individual doses being hidden (except for caffeine), we can’t tell if they’re included in effective doses or not.

Usually this is a bad sign, however if Tribeca Health managed to squeeze in optimal doses of most ingredients, we would have a very effective all-round fat-burner on our hands.
