JYM Shred Review (2023) Can It Help You Lose Weight? 

Shred JYM is a fat burner supplement designed by fitness and bodybuilding guru Dr. Jim Stoppani. Its main goal is to increase your metabolic rate for more effective fat loss.

This product could potentially help with a general weight loss program or a cutting phase for bodybuilders.

Our initial thoughts on this JYM Shred fat burner were positive because of the company behind it.

JYM Supplement Science, in general, is a popular brand in the fitness industry mainly because its products are heavily based on scientifically proven ingredients with a general lack of fillers and additives.

Most JYM products have in common that they don’t go overboard with huge lists of obscure ingredients. With Shred, they have kept it to the following six.

1 - Acetyl-L-Carnitine (1,500mg)

Numerous studies have been conducted, and while some initial research results were a bit mixed, there is one study that found a link between this ingredient and weight loss as well as training performance [1].

Based on feedback from my dietitian, there are also limited negative effects associated, and she reported that it might be helpful for increased workout energy.

Many users say that Shred JYM is not only effective in losing weight but also in giving them the boost they need for intense workouts.

2 - L-Tyrosine (500mg)

This isn’t an ingredient that provides specific fat-burning capabilities. Instead, its known impacts relate to brain function and overall mood [2].

The benefit this could provide is for some additional motivation to stick with your diet and exercise routine. If you’re doing extended fasting periods, it may also help you fight those urges to reach for snacks.

What I would point out, though, is that the JYM Shred serving size of this ingredient isn’t as high as has been scientifically tested. So this may not be strong enough.

Green tea leaf extract is mainly used in the health and diet industry for its antioxidant properties. Having a few cups of this tea every day has been shown to help with detox.

But one extensive study has also shown that green tea extract may be directly linked to fat oxidation [3].

The good news here is that Shred JYM seems to contain a large enough dose that matches what several studies used to confirm the metabolism impact.

Combined with a proper nutrition and exercise program, our clients have seen a little bit of fat loss after 2 months of consistent use.

Caffeine has long been known to improve your mental focus and metabolic rate by triggering thermogenesis. It’s a natural fat burner that most weight loss products rely on.

It works by slightly increasing your core body temperature to burn extra calories from stored body fat.

Based on online reviews, many users say they feel energized a few minutes after taking the product, which may be caffeine revving up their metabolism.

However, the side effects could be feeling jittery, especially if you tend to drink coffee during the day.

Cayenne pepper extract is another fat burner that belongs in the thermogenic category. Along with caffeine, it’s possibly one of the ingredients with the largest amounts of research and review done.

One study, in particular, was able to link it to a significant effect on fat to make it a potential treatment for obesity [4].

Synephrine is a pretty new ingredient in diet supplements, and there are some possible links to appetite suppression.

But the more interesting study we could find tied synephrine to the release of fat from fat cells [5]. This was specifically measured during and after exercise, so it’s not a get slim on the couch type of ingredient.

The one thing to mention is that the Shred JYM dose of synephrine is considerably lower than the amounts used in most studies.

But many users reported that it helped them control their appetite and reduce their cravings, which may have contributed to their weight loss.

You can buy Shred JYM from the product's official website, GNC.com, or bodybuilding com.

We have seen it offered on eBay and other online marketplaces. But we strongly suggest you avoid that kind of risk.

There have been increasing reports of counterfeit products being sold. In the best case, they'll do pretty much nothing. But in the worst-case scenario, they could impact your health.

Always stick with trusted retailers.

A bottle of 240 capsules costs around $30, which is a pretty good price for a 40-day supply. It's cheaper than most fat burners in the market.

They also offer free shipping for orders above $69.99.

But if you're not fully satisfied with the product, you can have it returned within 30 days from purchase to get your money back.
