Ice Cube Diet Reviews

By Weight Loss Consultant • Related • Filed Under

The Ice Cube Diet is supposed to naturally balance out your hunger while helping to stop cravings, help you to eat less, and give you independent studies that will back the effectiveness of their product.  Bascially speaking, they give you what they call “satiety cubes” which are basically made of supposed hoodia in each ice cube “frozen within 24 hours of harvest.”

This is a little convenient and yet complicated considering the fact that you cannot exactly get hoodia outside of South Africa.  They don’t actually allow people to export it legally speaking.  But then there’s the fact of the clinical studies.  We would like to see which clinical studies exactly that they are talking about.  Every valid clinical study that has been released has shown that hoodia has no known benefits including appetite suppression.

So what else is there?  Well we don’t know.  Being that you can’t get hoodia outside of South Africa, we don’t even know what’s in it to be completely honest.  The reality is that it has about 3000mg per day supposedly of something. But they give no hint as to what that actually is.  They focus on features from 60 minutes for example on hoodia.  But they imply that it was about their product specifically, even though it wasn’t.

So this in mind, we thought we’d look into the supposed studies they have, and we were assuming they had multiple studies, no they only have one.  This study was apparently conducted over 20 days using over 100 women.  And then they extended it to 40 days.  They claim that 88% lost significant pounds, 70% said they would purchase the product right know, 64% said it was better than expected, 37% said that it helped them to eat less at meals and was “refreshing to take”, and 46% said that they maintained an appetite.

We found this very interesting, not only because all other studies have shown that hoodia does not work, but also because this study is not published, nor are other studies conducted supposedly on particular products.  And were it a real study, it would presented much differently to say the least.  For example “88% lost significant pounds”?  That would be presented more like this many of the participants lost this much whether in percentage or one number in general of pounds.  They would specify, and they obviously don’t.

For another thing, studies don’t actually take information on whether participants would use the product or whether they would recommend it to their friends.  They keep it down to completely empirical evidence.  But of course, they conducted no study and only talk about these supposed “results” themselves.  No others can verify.  There’s a reason why it is not called double blind, placebo controlled, etc. There is also no mention of who conducted it.

We would not recommend falling for this scam.  The Ice Cube Diet does not promote weight loss, and it does not give you any other benefits.  It doesn’t have the right ingredients, the right amounts, really anything that you would actually need to see greater results.  This said, there are definitely other options out there.
