Description

ABB's Speed Shot is powered by a proprietary Thermotach blend of performance accelerants, methylxanthines (chemical relatives of caffeine) and potent botanicals. This concentrated liquid supplement boosts energy levels as well as thermogenic (calorie burning) and lipolysis (fat burning) effects. Speed Shot's exclusive Thermotach blend includes caffeine, yerba mate, gurana, yohimbe and phenylalanine to stoke workouts, boost the metabolism, and promote alertness and performance.

Speed Shot's Thermotach blend was specially designed for athletes to immediately boost energy levels and stimulate the metabolism before workouts. It features yerba mate, a natural source of caffeine extracted from the leaves of an evergreen holly tree. Used as a medicinal and cultural drink for millennia by South Americans, yerba mate has been shown to have powerful stimulant and antioxidant effects. Research also suggests that yerba mate along with the botanical guarana promote weight loss and suppress appettite.

Speed Shot contains phenylalanine, an essential amino acid that can only be obtained from either dietary or supplementary sources. This amino acid is an important precursor for neurotransmitters that affect mood, appetite and the nervous system. Phenylalanine supplementation can build neurotransmitter levels in the brain and promote energy, enhance alertness and elevate mood. Athletes can benefit from phenylalanine supplementation since it can help offset fatigue and stress associated with intense training.

Speed shot also contains yohimbe, a botanical extracted from the bark of a West African evergreen. Traditionally used as an aphrodisiac in Africa, yohimbe is a vasodilator that increases blood flow to the extremities. Research suggests that yohimbe also increases the neurotransmitter dopamine, has antioxidant effects, and stimulates lipolysis (fat burning).

Pros

• Proprietary Thermotach Blend boosts energy and metabolism

Cons

Speed Shot contains 250 mg of total caffeine from all sources. High caffeine drinks have been found to increase heart rate and blood pressure. Caffeine, guarana, yerba mate and yohimbe may cause insomnia, trembling, anxiety, and urinary frequency. Individuals that are sensitive to caffeine's stimulant effects should avoid taking Speed Shot.

If you regularly consume coffee and caffeinated drinks, Speed Shot should be taken in place of your coffee, not in addition to your coffee. This may be a problem if you don't want to give up your caffeinated drinks.

High doses of phenylalanine (more than 1500 mg per day) may cause headaches and nausea. Long-term use of phenylalanine should be monitored by a health care professional.

Pregnant or lactating women and people with pre-existing medical conditions or on medication should not supplement with Speed Shot without consulting a physician.

Be aware that some drugs and foods may interact with the nutrients in Speed Shot including:

• Antidepressants
• Brimonidine
• Bupropion
• Tyramine-containing foods including cheese, liver and red wine
• Fluvoxamine
