Have you heard of this new diet called, “The Dynamic Diet?” It’s only been around for a couple years now, but it seems to be catching on. But does it work? If you’re wondering what it’s all about, you’ve come to the right place.
What Is the Dynamic Diet?
The Dynamic Diet is a complete weight-loss program that gives you diet and exercise advice to help you lose weight. It’s divided into three main phases.
Phase 1: Ignite
This first phase of the Dynamic Diet has you going on a high-protein, low-carb, low-fat and overall low-calorie diet to stimulate rapid fat loss. You focus on eating lean meats with plenty of low-calorie vegetables, along with some healthy fats. Exercise is not emphasized during this phase. This is concerning, considering exercise is often considered a staple of weight loss. However, you’ll follow phase one for about 20 days.
Phase 2: Dominate
In the next phase of the Dynamic Diet, you bump up your calorie intake a little and start focusing more on exercise to continue your initial weight loss from the Ignite phase. You’ll follow phase two until you’ve maintained your weight loss for about one month. Food wise, you’ll add low-glycemic starchy vegetables.
Phase 3: Maintain
The Maintain phase is on-going and focuses on long-term weight management. You stick to eating healthy during the week and enjoy the “the foods you favor the most on the weekends.”
Top 5 Dynamic Diet Ingredients
The Dynamic Diet has you taking a fat-loss supplement in the form of liquid drops that you can add to your meals. The taste is reportedly horrific, so if you’ve ever tried to get a 2-year-old to take her meds, then you probably have the right idea – bury it inside something tasty and just go for it. Here are the five key active ingredients.
L-Carnitine
This is an amino acid that promotes weight loss by helping the body burn fat and stabilize mental and physical energy levels.
Beta-alanine
Beta-alanine is a naturally occurring energy booster to help your get through those tough days of dieting in the Ignite phase of the diet.
L-Ornithine
Another amino acid that can help boost energy levels in the gym and assist with muscle-building.
L-Arginine
This amino acid helps your body produce growth hormone, which is useful in building muscle, repairing damaged tissue in the body and reducing your body fat levels.
African Mango
This herbal remedy promotes health in a number of ways by providing antioxidants, fighting harmful bacteria in the body and reducing levels of bad cholesterol in the blood.
Does the Dynamic Diet Work?
Generally speaking, most research shows that reduced-calorie diets are effective in achieving weight loss. But keeping the weight off is the hard part.
The second and third phase attempt to address long-term weight loss.
Research published in the International Journal of Behavioral Medicine showed that rapid weight loss in the initial stages of a diet can significantly improve the chances of achieving greater weight loss and keeping it off in the long term. [1]
However, there’s no research on the official website supporting the weight-loss claims. The only support comes in the form of customer testimonials.
Are There Any Dynamic Diet Side Effects?
According to the official website, side effects from the Dynamic Diet include experiencing flu-like symptoms. The cause is your body undergoes a detoxification during the initial days of the Dynamic Diet. The company states you may also experience headaches. Moreover, side effects last no more than 10 days. However, there are some people that follow a very-low calorie diet, not specifically the Dynamic Diet, that experience side effects such as nausea, fatigue and constipation. [2]
How Are Dynamic Diet Customers Treated?
I have to be completely honest here. While I’m impressed with the Dynamic Diet in theory, I’m not very happy with the company’s customer service record. The company is fairly new in the weight loss industry, so there aren’t that many reviews. The official website has glowing reviews, as expected, but if you look elsewhere, the results are a mixed bag.
Some people insist they’ve followed the program and lost weight, while very few claim to have followed it without losing weight. However, it’s the customer service complaints that stand out most. Here are a few.
“My wife used this for 2 weeks…it did not work (she lost one pound and was hungry and bloated the whole time). No way to get a credit back. No phone number to call or response from the company.” – Brad Alec
“Fellow dieters please be aware, this company…never return your calls or e-mails. They were very fast to respond before I purchased but no customer service after. NONE!” – Zack W.
“I was ALWAYS HUNGRY. Whenever I would ask more complicated questions the “support” literally would steer me away from answering the real questions. Never got an answer who created it? Who is the doctor behind it or if they have ANY research done on this. I received NO ANSWERS.” – Brenda Hughes
Bottom Line on the Dynamic Diet
The program costs $94.95 – $164.95, you get a diet manual and weight loss supplement drops along with a cookbook and mineral supplement formula at the higher price range. To be fair, the Dynamic Diet does come with a 60-day money-back guarantee, as long as you follow the return policy’s requirements:
- Email the company first to obtain a return merchandise authorization number
- Return within 60 days for date of purchase
- Follow the diet for at least three weeks with food journal entries recorded
- Return in original packaging
The program offers advise on weight loss and even testimonials. We’re concerned that the customer service seems hit-and-miss. This is not a company that has been around for years and years. It’s new, and you never know if these new companies are going to stand the test of time.
On the other hand, there’s a product supported by favorable dieter reviews and an impressive customer service team.
Among the best products we’ve seen this year is called Burn HD. The supplement contains four ingredients – Meratrim, ChromeMate, Green tea and Caffeine. There’s research showing the ingredients help boost metabolism, curb appetite and ignite energy. What’s better, customer tell us they see great results.
Additionally, the team behind Burn HD offer customers a Special Trial Offer, which is a good thing.
