  • Verizon Gives It’s Tour Customers Push To Talk With The 5.0 Update

    PTT or Push To Talk, is a feature Verizon offers on their sturdy rugged phones. It’s a favorite of construction workers, city workers, even ranchers and farmers. But with the update of the Tour, it’s a feature offered to all Verizon Tour customers. Let’s take a closer look at the new Push To Talk feature.

    Verizon has listed the Push To Talk for the Tour. What is Push To Talk? Here’s Verizon’s description:

    Make quick exchanges.
    Push one button to contact team members or clients.
    Place group calls.
    Hold conversations with as many as 50 total participants.
    Check team member status with Presence.
    See who is available for a Push to Talk call.
    Manage contacts for the entire company online.
    Add, delete and assign contacts, create groups and more.
    Use one number, one device.
    Make and receive voice calls without needing a second device or phone number.
    Enjoy coast-to-coast coverage.
    Connect on our nationwide broadband network, and get expanded coverage across the United States within the National Enhanced Services Rate and Coverage Area.
    Push to Talk on BlackBerry.
    Get instant two-way communication at the push of a button with Push to Talk on the BlackBerry, now available on the BlackBerry® Tour™.

    Now if you have Verizon and a Tour, if you upgrade the OS with 5.0, then you have the Push To Talk Capability. After you upgrade you have a limited time offer to call to get in on the free offer. You can call either the Business side at 1-VZW-4BIZ or 1-800-2-JOIN IN for consumers. After calling, you are free to go to download the app. This is either in the Application Center or the VZW bookmarked page under the services. After downloading the app, you can go to Options, Push To Talk, and enable. This will now make the left side shortcut key open the push to talk.

    So what exactly are the features of the Push To Talk? You can find Verizon’s Push To Talk FAQ’s here. You can find instructions, a coverage map, and answers to many questions you may have.

    Let me show you a few of the features of the Push To Talk features of the Tour.

    First you need to add contacts. You add them by their phone number. They must be Verizon Push to Talk customers for them to be enabled as users. You can also designate groups and temp groups for your contacts. You can add, delete, and rename your contacts.

    To add a contact, you can either click on the left shortcut key or by clicking on the Push To Talk icon. Click the menu button and choose either new PTT Contact or New PTT Group. You can also rename your contact should you save and realize you need to change the name. Click the option button and choose save when you’re done. After the contact is added , you are given the choice of Alert, Call, or SMS your contact, to add to group or copy to contact book. You also have an option called Filter. Filter is to choose a category to view, such as PTT Contacts (Only Show PTT contacts), PTT Groups (Only Show PTT Groups), and Presence (Only show online PTT contacts and groups). Make a group by choosing new group, and when you name and save it, go into it and from there you can click the option button and choose Edit or Add Group Member. From your PTT Contacts, you can choose who to add to the group. You can edit or delete members as you go.

    It’s extremely easy to use, much like a walkie talkie. After setting up your contacts, you can access the app by either clicking the left shortcut key, or clicking on the PTT icon. You can send an alert to do the Push to Talk to your contact which alerts them and they accept, or you can do what is called a Barge Call which is where it goes straight through. This is great for the coworker, spouse, or teen that never answers their calls the first time.

    Talking on the PTT requires that you hold down the left side key while speaking into the phone. Release when you are done. It will tell you talking or listening as the other person is speaking. It takes a little practice, but it’s extremely useful. So if you have Verizon and want or have the Tour, now you can hurry and get the Push To Talk feature free.

    When in a Push To Talk call, regular phone calls will not come through as in call waiting. They will be directed to your voice mail. If you are in a regular phone call, the Push To Talk caller will get the message that you are unavailable. Also, you cannot call someone with Push To Talk using just the prefix and number, nor can you use the one. You must dial the area code, prefix, and the number to be able to call using Push To Talk.

    When you want to disable the Push To Talk feature, you can do so by going to Options, Push To Talk, and disable.

    Not only did the Push To Talk feature come out with the Tour, but also the Backup Assistant which is nice for the users who don’t ever use the BlackBerry Desktop Manager. Let me explain this though…The Backup Assistant ONLY backs up your contacts. Not pictures, not texts, not emails, ONLY contacts. The BlackBerry Desktop Manager can do a backup of ALL your settings, messages, and you can back up pictures and ringtones. Keep this in mind. If contacts are your only concern, then you’re set. Both the Backup Assistant and the Push To Talk features are new to a smartphone, let alone a BlackBerry.

    Are you a Verizon customer who has tried PTT yet? Let us know your thoughts, we’d love to know what you think of it.

  • Review: Vlingo Plus v4.5 With SafeReader, Communicate Hands Free At Work Or Play

    Vlingo has been around for a while. I remember it back when it was free for all, and it was a great way to drive. In fact, there were many BlackBerry users who used the BlackBerry for this very app. And it has grown, improved, and become a more versatile application. Simple use with the touch of a button. Let’s take a look…

    Vlingo is available in the BlackBerry App World or from the Vlingo website itself. The description of Vlingo for those of you who have never heard of Vlingo is as follows:

    Vlingo gives you the freedom to speak into to your BlackBerry in place of typing. Go hands-free, whether for work or for play.
    NEW FEATURE: SafeReader – have your incoming text and email messages read to you while you are on the go!
    Use your voice to…..
    • send a text or email message to any contact
    • search the web using Google or Yahoo!
    • call a friend
    • update your Facebook or Twitter status
    • open native and 3rd party applications
    • Instant messengers: including BBM (BlackBerry Messenger), AIM, Yahoo, Windows Live
    • Virtually any application

    I downloaded and installed Vlingo Plus which is only $19.99 on my BlackBerry Tour 9630 with 5.0. It installed quickly and easily. There’s an interactive set up during which Vlingo helps you set your shortcut key and also scans your contacts. Here’s an interesting thing to remember. I have two different gmails on my phone, both were synced, however only one has family in it. The Vlingo the default synced contacts, not all the ones in the book. So I had to be sure that both of my gmails were synced with the same contacts.

    So after it’s set up, you can go into the options and personalize it, perhaps make changes to what you’d like. I’m going to walk you through the application first. Clicking on the icon brings up a page with three sections: What Can I Say? Tell A Friend..; and SafeReader.

    What Can I Say? This section explains how you can control your phone with voice and gives you examples. You can do a web search by voice, Dial with the command Dial or Call which you can do by name or number, Facebook status in which you can update your status by voice, Twitter updates, email which is exclusive to the paid version, Note to Self, Open Applications such as Open Calendar, and another feature of the paid is to use it within other applications. So if you are in BlackBerry Messenger you are able to hold the button down and say what you want to say and it will be spell it out for you to enter. Now the new feature: Hear incoming messages, turn on Vlingo SafeREader to hear the first 30 words of text or email messages read to you.

    Tell A Friend lets you email a friend to tell them about Vlingo and how it’s really been a value to you.

    SafeReader is the last part of the page which allows you to turn it on or off.

    Clicking on your options key brings up Help and Online Support, as well as Options. I’m going to take you through the options next.

    There are six sections in options. The first is General. This section is where you choose which key will be the voice key, the voice key behavior of Anywhere or Only On Vlingo Home, the language which can be US or UK English, Profanity Filtering which can be set to on or off, Vlingo Everywhere Behavior which can be set to Show Popup or Paste Immediately, Location Awareness which can be set to on or off, and how you want your contacts sorted.

    The next section is Audio. In this section you can set Alert Tones to On or Off, Volume to Quiet, Normal, or Loud, Text to Speech Voice which can be set to Male or Femaile, TTS Playback which can be set to Off, Brief, or Full, and TTS Playback for Bluetooth.

    The Applications section has SafeReader which can be set to SMS and Email, SMS Only or Email Only, the Web Search engine which you choose either Yahoo or Google, Note to Self in which you can Add Memo, Add Task, Send SMS to Self, or Send Email to Self. It also includes Twitter in which you set your login credentials, Auto-Dial which can be turned on or off, and Auto-Dial Behavior which can be set to Less Frequent, Standard, or more Frequent.

    Next is Tagline. In this you can set the Email Tagline, SMS Tagline, and Facebook Tagline to be on or off. The Network Section has Auto Configure which you can Run Test. You can set the connection type to Direct TCP, BIS, or MDS.

    Save your settings and you’re ready to use Vlingo. I tested this out with text, emails, in applications, and allowed the SafeReader to read. It works amazingly. For calling and texting it is so easy. You hold the key down, you see it listening and you speak into the phone as you hold the key down. I say “Call John” and it brings up John as it calls. I try holding the key down and say “Message to John, Message ‘What time did you say?’” and Vlingo types it up and I only have to hit send.

    Using Vlingo in applications is easy too. I’m in the BlackBerry Messenger, I hold the key down while in chat and say what I want to answer and it sets to paste. SafeReader works great too.

    Anyone could benefit from Vlingo, while you’re driving, while you’re working, in a hurry and want to save time while writing, it’s easy and fast. Save time and make things convenient. It’s a five star application and for the convenience it’s great. It didn’t slow my phone down at all. It’s easy to use, and the use of one side key of your choice makes it so easy to use. I can’t tell you how much of a convenience this application makes. Versatile and convenience beyond description,  you’ll have to try this out.

    PROS: Understands and types, I didn’t have to use correcting as long as I spoke slow. It read my messages and let me use it in any application.

    CONS: Only having to paste in other applications, and the fact that if you use syncing with your emails, and have a default, those are the contacts it will recognize.

    Read about the free and paid version of Vlingo here and compare the features

    Download Vlingo here

    Download Vlingo from BlackBerry App World here

    Vlingo is compatible with the following BlackBerry Devices: Bold (9000 series), Bold (9700), Curve (83xx), Curve (8900), Curve (8520), Pearl (81xx), Pearl Flip (82xx), Storm (9530), Storm 2 (9550), Tour (9630), World Edition (88xx)

  • Backing Up Your Third Party Apps On Your BlackBerry

    After the latest Tour update that just happened, I know myself and a few others made the same mistake. Updating from a different OS on the net, instead of downloading off the service provider and installing it. In my being hasty for happiness, I lost all my third party apps. So I want to share an article with you.

    I couldn’t believe I had done that. Normally when you update on the net it will bring up the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and bring all your information and apps across after the update. Not this time…I lost it all. And it wasn’t till I was asked by Josh about apps that it donned on me…some of us have never really thought about how to do it. The easiest way is with the BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife. But the way I’m going to share with you is an article by Crucial Xtreme of CrackBerry. This is the best detailed instructions I have found.

    Now with this tutorial it’s what you can do prior to a wipe, all I’m posting this for is in case of an OS update, you can back up your apps just to be on the safe side.

    The article goes through the steps of using the BlackBerry Desktop Manager to begin like you’re going to be doing a transfer, but you’re going to include only the 3rd party apps. Then you copy and save the file, and it also tells you how to find them and reload them back on.

    If you’re being hasty and doing your upgrade on the net, please back up your apps first just to be safe. Thanks to Crucial Xtreme, you can be sure you don’t lose them.

  • MMMOOO Introduces iGallery, The Free Digital Photo Frame With Password Protect!

    I really liked the iGallery with the ability to use your pictures as a digital photo frame, but most of all I really like that it’s a clever lock for your BlackBerry as well. Share your pictures, not your information. You can set a password, without needing to worry that it will all wipe out if it’s forgotten, but it will keep your information from prying eyes. Check it out…

    MMMOOO has done it again. You can set up different folders of pictures and set the folder to play as though it were a digital photo frame. Keep your loved ones in your view. But it’s also nice to password protect so you can have your phone at work and not have to worry about someone trying to look through your phone.

    I installed it on my Tour 9360 and it works great. First you go to the icon as shown.

    Next you go to options to set up the settings. In here you can see enable the screensaver, select the picture file, how long before the screensaver begins, and how long between frames.

    Help gives you information on the application.

    About gives you information about the iGallery and MMMOOO.

    MMMOOO does ask that you give any feedback if you find bugs, be sincere and kind please.

    iGallery is compatible with the OS: 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 5.0

  • Google Updates Google Mobile Search Again To v3.6.13, With Love For The Storms

    Google updated their mobile Search app, and this time there was love for the BlackBerry Storm and Storm2. I’ve even included what Google said in their blog about the changes for the new morning update. So if you updated last night, it’s time to update once more.

    As from the Official Google Mobile Blog:

    This version contains all of the useful features of Google Mobile App, but is tailored for BlackBerry touchscreen devices. You can search using your voice instead of typing your query. Just hold the green button and speak your query in English, Mandarin Chinese, or Japanese. You can also use Google Mobile App to search your BlackBerry’s email and contacts. To find an email, you can search for the name of the person who sent you an email, or a phrase from the body of the message. If you’d rather Google Mobile App not search your email and contacts, you can turn off Phone Search in the options screen. Information about your contacts and content from your emails is accessible only on your device; Google Mobile App does not send this data to Google.

    Google Mobile App also includes a few other conveniences to make searching easy, such as Google Suggest and search history. Google Mobile App also links to other Google services, such as Google Maps and Gmail, so you can access them quickly.

    Google is available in seven different languages in more than twenty countries.

    So if you haven’t updated today, we recommend you update it and let us know what you think.

As a member of BlackBerry Beta Zone, you’ll have the opportunity to sign up for beta programs and be among the first to try out new BlackBerry software before it’s released to the general public.

  • iLock By MMMOOO Keeps Your Apps Password Protected From Prying Eyes

    I know there’s times we let others look through our BlackBerry, or let someone use it for a call and then hope they don’t go through it. Or what about if you want to keep your kids out of your games or what have you. Well there’s a solution called iLock by MMMOOO and it’s only $3.99 in the BlackBerry Sync Store.

    The description in the BlackBerry Sync Store is as follows:

    Enhance the security and privacy! iLock enables you set password for any app you like.
    It’s a great complement of the system default password function which can only lock the phone entirely.

    Case study: Want to show your friend some content in phone, but you dont want the contacts or sms app accessible, the iLock is the one.

    Features include:

    • Simple UI with smart and strong password protection function, you can set password for core apps and 3rd part apps
    • The app is running silently & slightly in background, wont occupy additional battery and memory

    I installed this application on my BlackBerry Tour 9630 to see how it works. I have to admit, I am very impressed. It works like this. You purchase and download it, restart your BlackBerry, and then you’re able to register by the pin. After that you run it from the little lock icon that sits in your downloads.

    After opening and registering it, here’s what you’ll see.

    Now let’s take a look at what it’s like to when we click on Third Party Apps Configuration:

    Every third party app is listed, so you’re able to lock the ones you check. And it works great. Every time you click on a third party app, you must enter your password before it will open. Next is the core apps.

    Yes, your Address Book can now be locked. Any application on your BlackBerry can be locked. Including Options. Wouldn’t you love protecting options from the child or friend who is curious and plays with the settings?

    As you can see, you can also check for updates from the app itself. Disabling is easy as well. You can check the app to autostart too. I really like the app, and find it would suit anyone who wants to have the phone open yet protected from someone looking through the phone without having to lock up the whole phone. And for $3.99, it’s a very nice feature.

    There is also a trial available, so check it out and let us know what you think. I’m sure you’re going to find it worth it.

    Grab your copy of iLock by MMMOOO for $3.99 from the BlackBerry Sync Store here

    Compatible with OS: 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 5.0

    Compatible with Devices: 81xx Pearl series, 82xx Flip Pearl series, 83xx Curve series, 85xx Curve series, 87xx series, 88xx World series, 89xx Curve series, 9000 (Bold), 95xx Storm series, 9630/9650 (Tour), 9700 (Bold)

  • Vlingo Announces SafeReader Free To Vlingo For Smartphones

    Vlingo announced at CTIA today that they have added SafeReader to their software free. For those who aren’t aware of Vlingo, it’s the world’s most popular mobile voice application, and SafeReader will now add the ability to read your messages to you. Let me elaborate on the details.

    Vlingo was first founded back in 2006. When it first came out, it was free. It still has a free version, but the paid version has more features. Just when you thought it was good, it became great. It was designed as a way to deter texting and emailing while driving. Instead of being tempted to text back, you could fix a side key to open Vlingo and tell it who to message and what to say and send it. Easy and convenient, it has become a favorite application for many. It gives you the ability to command by voice to text, email, or update your status on Facebook or Twitter by your voice. The application is available in free and plus version from the Vlingo website or the BlackBerry App World. Vlingo Plus is only $19.99. What’s the difference between them? Let me show you…

    The application has been spoken about highly for using voice to text, and of course with the Plus version, you can send to everyone. I’ll be doing a thorough review and post it in a few days. The SafeReader takes the great ability and turns it to text to voice, reading to you. You can download Vlingo from the following sites.

    Grab your copy of Vlingo from Vlingo.com

    Grab your copy of Vlingo from BlackBerry App World

    Let us know if you currently use Vlingo or if you ever have and what you think about it. We’d love to hear your opinions. I’m excited about it, the SafeReader option isn’t a cure, but can save some accidents for those of us who can’t turn our phones off while driving.

  • BlackBerry Desktop Manager Update Available, v5.0.1.37

    The BlackBerry Desktop Manager has an update available. Usually if you check for updates through the BDM, it will tell you if has an update, but it hasn’t done so yet. You can download the newer version from the BlackBerry website, and you can choose the Mac or Windows version. Since this update was so quiet, I have to wonder what’s in store….

    I use the BlackBerry Desktop Manager for updating my software (the trustee App Loader), for backing up my BlackBerry, moving files across with Roxio, and even moving my data from one BlackBerry to another. It’s been a useful too, especially for upgrading software over the pc. Upgrade your BDM and let us know what new changes you find.

    You can download the BlackBerry Desktop Manager from BlackBerry.com here

  • Adipril Review

    adiprilAdipril is a diet pill that claims it will help you “Lose 10 lbs in 7 days” (website). Just how does Adipril work? This Adipril review will help you see just how Adipril does (or does not) cause weight loss.

    Adipril Ingredients

    GuggulEZ100 is supposed to increase thyroid function, causing weight loss. However, clinical studies have shown varying results.
    Razberi-K is also known as raspberry ketones. While it has been shown to contribute to weight loss in rodents, there have not been human studies done on Razberi-K.
    FucoPure is brown seaweed. It has not been shown to cause weight loss.
    ThermoDiamine (Evodiamine) is another diet pill ingredient that has been proven effective in causing weight loss in mice. Once again, though, it has not been proven to cause weight loss in humans; more human research is needed.
    ForsLean is supposed to increase lean body mass. This Adipril review finds that when combined with other proven diet pill ingredients, ForsLean can be effective at causing weight loss.
    BioPerine helps the body absorb more nutrients. While this can help with overall health, there is no proof that it directly contributes to weight loss.

    You will notice that the only Adipril ingredient that will actually contribute to weight loss is ForsLean, and it is effective when combined with other effective ingredients (which are not contained in Adipril diet pills). Therefore, this review finds the ingredients in Adipril will not cause weight loss.

    Adipril Cost

    Adipril diet pills cost $49.99 per bottle. Each bottle lasts one month. The website claims you save $50 off the retail price of $99.99. Don’t be too impressed by this. It is pretty common for diet pill companies to claim you are saving big bucks in order to get you to buy the product.

    Adipril does offer a discount for bulk purchases. No matter the cost, Adipril is too expensive, considering there is no scientific proof that Adipril will actually contribute to weight loss.

    Adipril Guarantee

    The Adipril website claims they have a 100% Lifetime Money-Back Guarantee. They do not give specific details on their guarantee.

    Even if it is a legitimate guarantee, we do not recommend using Adipril because you will definitely need to use the guarantee. Save yourself some time and grief by going with a diet pill that includes ingredients proven to cause weight loss.

    Adipril Testimonials

    The Adipril website contains several testimonials from supposed Adipril customers. The problem with testimonials is that they are way too easy to fabricate; there is no way of knowing if they are real or not.

    Adipril Conclusion

    This Adipril review finds Adipril is not worth your time or money. There is no scientific evidence to show Adipril will actually cause any weight loss. Although Adipril does offer a guarantee, due to the lack of clinical support, we recommend looking elsewhere for a diet pill. Look for a diet pill that contains proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.

  • Nuphedra Review

    nuphedraNuphedra is a diet pill that is supposed to suppress appetite and burn fat. This Nuphedra review will detail the ingredients in Nuphedra and help you determine if Nuphedra is the product for you.

    Nuphedra Ingredients

    Serving size 2 capsules
    Vitamin C 30 mg
    Vitamin E 15 mg
    Chromium Polynicotinate (300 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical trials.
    Vitamin B12 100 mcg
    Niacin 20 mg
    Vitamin B6 25 mg
    Green tea (250 mg) has been proven to contribute to weight loss when taken in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Therefore, if you take the recommended 4-6 capsules per day, you will be getting plenty of green tea to cause weight loss.
    Oolong tea (150 mg) does contain caffeine, which has been shown to contribute to weight loss.
    Phenylethylamine (50 mg) is a feel good ingredient; it has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.
    Cayenne 100 mg
    Razberri-K (75 mg) is also known as raspberry ketones. It has been shown to contribute to weight loss in mice, but more human research is needed.
    Thermodiamine (Evodiamine) (10 mg) has been proven to cause weight loss in rodents, but more human research is needed.
    Lipolide-SC (10 mg) increases fat burning capabilities.
    Yohimbine (2 mg) has been shown to contribute to weight loss.
    Green Coffee Bean Extract (50 mg) has been shown to inhibit weight gain, but only in mice. Again, more human research is needed.
    Ginger 100 mg
    Synephrine (20 mg) is a great diet pill ingredient. However, the important thing to note is the concentration of synephrine contained–the higher the better. Unfortunately, Nuphedra fails to list the concentration of synephrine it contains. Therefore, it is impossible for this Nuphedra review to determine if the concentration of synephrine of contained is enough to cause weight loss.
    Bioperine (5 mg) helps the body absorb more nutrients. There is no evidence that it directly contributes to weight loss.
    Vinpocetine (2.5 mg) has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.
    Dandelion 300 mg
    Uva Ursi (150 mg) is used to treat bladder infections and arthritis; it does not cause weight loss.

    Nuphedra Cost

    Nuphedra diet pills cost $61.95 for a 30 day supply. This Nuphedra review finds Nuphedra is on the expensive side compared to other diet pills. Nuphedra does contain some great diet pill ingredients, but you can find a diet pill that is just as effective while costing you a lot less.

    Nuphedra Guarantee

    Is there a guarantee on Nuphedra diet pills? Well, the Nuphedra website is currently not working and you can’t order directly from the manufacturer at this point. Some retailers offer their own guarantee on products they sell. Be sure to check with the individual retailer to know if there is a guarantee.

    Nuphedra Conclusion

    This Nuphedra review finds Nuphedra contains some excellent diet pill ingredients in the necessary amounts. The only downfall to Nuphedra is the price. Nephedra should be effective in helping with weight loss. Can you find cheaper alternatives? Probably.

  • QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Review

    quicktrim burn and cleanseQuickTrim Burn and Cleanse is a 14 day diet system that is “designed to totally transform your body” (website). This QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse review will sift through the dozens of ingredients and help you see QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse for what it really is.

    QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Ingredients

    QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse is a 3 part system. The following are the ingredients contained in QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse.

    -Iso-Burn AM Ingredients

    Niacin 20 mg
    Chromium 200 mcg

    QT Capsimax Thermogenic Complex 244 mg
    Caffeine Anhydrous is a good diet pill ingredient, but QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does not reveal how much caffeine anhydrous it contains.
    Capsimax Capsicum Fruit Extract
    Metabromine Cocoa Extract is an appetite suppressant. It needs more clinical backing.
    Bioperine helps the body to absorb nutrients. There is no evidence to suggest it causes weight loss.

    Super Antioxidant Thermo Catalyst Complex 233 mg
    Blueberry, Blackberry, Transresveratrol, White Willow Bark, Acai
    These ingredients do not cause weight loss.

    Iso-Burn Fatloss Activator 415 mg
    Green Tea Leaf Extract does contribute to weight loss. However, in order for green tea to be effective it has to be taken in doses of 300 mg or more per day. QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse fails to list how much green tea it contains, so there is no way of knowing if it will be effective.
    Raspberry Ketones has been shown to cause weight loss in mice, but more human testing is needed.
    Mucuna Pruriens
    Banaba Leaf lowers blood sugar levels, leading to weight loss. However, once again, QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does not say how much Banaba Leaf it contains.
    Sclareolide
    Acetyl-l-carnitine
    QT Detox Cleansing Complex 100 mg
    Black Walnut Hull, Grapefruit Seed, Pau D’arco Bark, Pumpkin Seed, Myrrh Gum Powder, Hyssop, Gentian Root, Elecampane Root, Prickly Ash Bark, Yellow Dock Root, False Unicorn Root

    None of these ingredients contributes to weight loss.

    Iso-Cleanse PM Ingredients

    Dietary Fiber 2 g

    Iso-Cleanse Herbal Complex 2200 mg
    Oat Fiber, Cellulose, Senna Leaf, Cascara Sagrada, Aloe Ferrox, Rhubarb, Prune Powder, Carob, Apple Fruit, Tamarind Extract, Date Fruit, Fig Fruit

    NONE of the ingredients in Iso-Cleanse PM have been proven to contribute to weight loss.

    Iso-Flush Ingredients

    Vitamin B6 50 mg
    Magnesium 100 mg
    Potassium 100 mg
    Herbal Blend 1000 mg
    Buchu Leaf
    Cornsilk Stylus
    Couchgrass Rhisome
    Hydrangea Root
    Juniper Berry
    Uva Ursi has been shown to cause drug interactions when combined with diuretics like Buchu Leaf.
    Horsetail Extract

    None of these ingredients has been shown to cause weight loss.

    Proprietary Blend 156 mg
    Dandelion Root
    Green Tea is a very effective diet pill ingredient, but only when used in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Since QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse fails to list how much green tea it contains, there is no way of knowing if there is enough green tea to cause weight loss.
    Guarana has been proven to contribute to weight loss, but only when combined with Damiana and Yerba Mate. Because QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does not contain either Damiana or Yerba Mate, this QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse finds the Guarana in QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse will not cause weight loss.

    So, overall, QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does contain a few clinically proven ingredients, but it fails to list how much of each ingredient is included.

    QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Cost

    QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse costs $59.99 for a 14 day supply. This is very expensive for a diet supplement, especially since there is no proof that QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse will actually work.

    QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Conclusion

    This QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse review finds this product is not worth your time or money. It does contain a few proven ingredients, but the amounts of each ingredient are undisclosed. If you really want to lose weight, go with a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.
