The United States: THERMO SHOCK may be harmful due to hidden ingredients (English only) |
|
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use THERMO SHOCK, a product promoted and sold for weight loss on various websites, including scilabsnutrition.com, and possibly in some retail stores.
FDA laboratory analyses confirmed that THERMO SHOCK contains 1,3-dimethylamylamine (1,3-DMAA) and synephrine not listed on the product label.
Use of 1,3-DMAA can elevate blood pressure and could lead to cardiovascular problems, including heart attack, shortness of breath and tightening of the chest. Products containing synephrine are reported to potentially result in cardiovascular effects, including increased heart rate and blood pressure, especially in the presence of caffeine. Consumers who have experienced any negative side effects should consult a health care professional as soon as possible.
Please refer to the following website in FDA for details:

In Hong Kong, the above product is not a registered pharmaceutical product.
