TruWeight & Energy is often sold in conjunction with another TruVision product, TruFix. There are some positive reviews from customers who have taken TruWeight & Energy, but there are also reports of some quite dangerous side effects. TruWeight & Energy is very expensive, as each box only lasts for 15 days if you take the recommended amount. There are two ways to get the product cheaper, none of which we advise you take. One is to sign up to auto-shipping, but these agreements are always hard to cancel. Or you can sign-up to become an “associate”, wherein you buy TruVision products to sell on to others – an arrangement with hardly ever results in profit for the “associate”.
Pros
Cons
Below, we take an in-depth look at TruWeight & Energy to see both how effective and safe it is as a weight loss aid.
Tru Weight & Energy supports healthy weight loss without jitters with its formulation of natural ingredients. Although TruWeight & Health appears to have been effective for many users, its drawbacks far outweigh the positives.
The manufacturers make no statement about the possible side effects that could occur from using this product. View the ‘Side Effects’ tab to view possible side effects of the individual ingredients.
TruWeight & Energy is available in a one-size box containing 60 capsules. Customers are able to buy the product in three different ways from the manufacturer’s website. The retail price per box is $58.95. Customers can also become “preferred customers” and receive a lower price ($51.95) by signing up for an autoship program.
TruWeight & Energy is a weight loss supplement offered by Truvision Health, a health and nutrition company operating in the USA. The company sells nutrition and weight loss supplements direct to customers, and also maintains a number of “associates” (the company’s name for independent sales consultants) who sell products on in exchange for cheaper buying prices. The company can be contacted using the information provided on its official website.
The product in question promises to help reduce body fat and make customers feel more energized by optimizing the body’s metabolic processes. The product contains a range of stimulant and mood-enhancing ingredients that aim to achieve this.

The manufacturer claims that TruWeight & Energy will help customers to:
Readers should note that when associates sell the product on elsewhere, they sometimes make different claims about the product.
TruWeight & Energy has been described as an appetite suppressant on Amazon.com, although not seemingly by the actual manufacturers.
The ingredients list used in TruWeight & Energy capsules are likely to work together to cause changes in one’s metabolism and the rate at which calories are burned. Although the ingredient quantities are unlisted, customer reviews seem to suggest that weight loss is possible and the product is ultimately effective.

The list of ingredients used are provided on Truvision’s website, although ingredient quantities are only listed on Amazon.com. Even here, the majority of the ingredients are listed under a single heading; proprietary weight and energy blend. By law, Truvision are allowed to keep their ingredient quantities confidential to maintain their intellectual property, although their decision to do this means that customers are unable to effectively estimate the potential effects of the product. The few ingredient quantities listed below are correct for a single capsule.
The product features a number of stimulants and other effective ingredients that will likely interact with one another to intensify their relative effects. AMP, caffeine, and bitter orange each produces stimulant effects that affect the metabolism, at the expense of some side effects. The EGCG extract is a concentrated form of the most effective weight loss ingredient in green tea; it will likely raise one’s body temperature which can burn more calories than normal. Phenylethylamine HCl and dendrobium are both thought to improve mood and increase alertness. The inclusion of bioperine intensifies the relative effects of the other ingredients by increasing the amount that is absorbed into the bloodstream from the digestive system.
One thing to note from the ingredients list is the lack of ingredient quantities. It is therefore very difficult to establish the actual effectiveness of the product, as even effective ingredients need to be used in adequate doses. It is also important that highly effective ingredients be limited so as not to cause undue negative side effects. One worrying sign is that for the only ingredient quantities available (those for the vitamin and mineral supplements), the amounts included are between 2-4 times more than the recommended daily allowance. This does not bode well for hopes that the remaining ingredients have been measured responsibly.
The manufacturers make no statement about the possible side effects that could occur from using this product. Below we have compiled some of the potential side effects that could be caused by individual ingredients used in TruWeight & Energy.
The inclusion of AMP could cause a range of side effects. Although slightly different, AMP is nearly identical to DMAA, which is associated with heart palpitations, strokes, and even sudden death. As there have been no clinical trials on humans, regulatory bodies recommend avoiding the ingredient altogether.
Side effects associated with the use of Bitter Orange components include increased heart rate and increased blood pressure, heart palpitations, fainting, and even heart attacks and strokes in healthy patients. The Mayo Clinic has recommended avoiding use of Bitter Orange and its extracts because they argue that the risk of using the product is not worth the weight loss that could be achieved using other means. Consumers should remember that the effects of the stimulants found in Bitter Orange are enhanced when combined with caffeine. Significant quantities of caffeine can cause side effects such as headaches, increased urination, dehydration, jitteriness, increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, heart palpitations, and sleeping problems.
Customers have reported a few common side effects associated with taking this product. Some customers have felt nauseous or ill after taking the recommended number of pills per day, with some reporting vomiting. A few others have reported sleeplessness and light-headedness.
Not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Not suitable for those under the age of 18. Not suitable for anyone with cardiac related health issues, including but not limited to high blood pressure. Not suitable for those who are sensitive to caffeine or other stimulant ingredients. Diabetics should consult their doctor before purchasing this product, as it may interfere with their medication. Discontinue use at least two weeks before surgery.
Customers have left many reviews of TruWeight & Energy on Amazon.com (seemingly the only site on which any are available online). Readers should note that these reviews cover a version of this product that is packaged alongside a second Truvision product (TruFix). As such, negative or positive points that are raised in the reviews may apply to one or both of the products included in the pack.
The reviews show a wide range of experiences, although the majority are positive. Those who have had a positive experience with the pack report that they have had fewer hunger cravings, have successfully lost weight, and have not felt as jittery as expected. Negative reviews often highlight the range of side effects associated with taking the products, with many complaining of nausea, dizziness and loss of sleep. Some even report bouts of vomiting. Another group of negative reviewers also argue that the products do not reduce hunger cravings, and their use did not result in weight loss.
I’ve had good luck with this so far. No jitters, gives you a little pep. Helps you eat better and exercise which is what I needed.
I absolutely love this product! Been on for 3 weeks curbs my appetite and I don’t have wacky cravings and wacky times of the day
This stuff is awesome! I have been struggling to lose my last 10 pounds to reach my goal. This stuff gave me the extra boost I needed. I could definitely tell that my appetite decreased while on it.
I heard about this product from a friend, and decided to purchase truvison. I was so excited to try the product, and I took the daily dose that was recommended when it first arrived. After an hour or so, I felt really light headed; an hour passed and I still felt dizzy and sick to my stomach. That night, I looked up more about truvison and read that some of the ingredients aren’t safe and contributed to the sickness I felt. This may just be my body, but I would strongly suggest looking deeply into this product to make sure it’s fit for your body.
I would lose weight if I continued to take these because they made me throw up EVERYTHING I ate & feel terrible. Don’t waste your money…unless you like puking.
However, a number of other customers reported that there were no noticeable effects, and those that did came with a range of unpleasant side effects. As TruWeight & Energy is typically bundled with a second Truvision product (Trufix) on Amazon.com, it is impossible to tell whether one or both of the products is more effective/more likely to cause side effects.
Truvision do not offer a money-back guarantee. Only unopened packages suitable for resale are allowed to be returned. Customers who want to return their products will need to get an RMA number before sending the package. To receive the number, customers must call customer support and they will take them through the return process. Returning the product without first contacting customer support will impede any kind of refund or company credit.
TruWeight & Energy is available to buy from Truvision’s website and Amazon.com. It is also available to buy from dozens of associate websites, such as gottahavetruvision.com, truvision4u.com and getfitwithtruvisionhealth.com.
TruWeight & Energy is available in a one-size box containing 60 capsules. Customers are able to buy the product in three different ways from the manufacturer’s website. The retail price per box is $58.95. Customers can also become “preferred customers” and receive a lower price ($51.95) by signing up for an autoship program.
Finally, customers can receive a lower price of $46.45 if they become an associate. Despite attractive lower prices, we would advise against the two latter arrangements. Autoship programs mean that expensive product bundles will be automatically ordered to the customer every month; these can be hard to cancel and will cost the customer more in the long term.
Becoming an independent sales consultant (or an associate) is also not an effective way to turn a profit. Studies have shown that around 96% of independent sales consultants fail to make back the value of their original purchase.
Although TruWeight & Health appears to have been effective for many users, its drawbacks far outweigh the positives. Most obviously, the product is prohibitively expensive; a single box of 60 capsules will only last 15 days if customers follow the recommended dosage. This means that ordinary retail customers will pay around $120 per month if they wish to stick with this particular diet pill. To find cheaper prices, customers have to register for an autoship program or become an “associate”. Both options involve committing oneself to buying more volumes of product, meaning that one is likely unable to save money they would have otherwise spent. Customers are also unable to return unopened packages, meaning that some may be left with large quantities of un-returnable goods.
Many customers report that TruWeight & Energy (and the product it is often bundled with) are effective. Many have lost weight and claim to have a reduced appetite (although the latter of these is not a feature of the product that is claimed by the manufacturer). A significant group of customers still maintains that the product is ineffective, and another group claim that it causes nausea, dizziness, sleeplessness, and vomiting.
Overall, TruWeight & Energy seemingly offers contested positive benefits for exorbitant prices. For this reason and the others listed above, we do not recommend TruWeight & Energy to our readers.

Is it ok to take Phentaslim when I have crohns disease and had my gallbladder removed last Nov 17?
can you advise if your recommended weight loss product, Phentaslim, is ok for me to take as I have crohns, and had my gallbladder removed last nov 17?
Saying that a ‘no money back guarantee’ is negative is misinforming your readers. There’s a good reason for that. You neglected to mention that there is a sample program with these products.
On a personal note. This product is no longer available in the US. However, I live in Australia. I have taken this product every day, twice a day, since January 24, 2015 with no problems.
I was wondering what you thought of tru control? They took other off the market with amp in it. Tru weight and energy. Tbis has oxodrine and yohimbine in it.
I recently took the TruWeight& Energy product but have stopped because of side effects i think were related to it. Besides nausea & jitters, my heart pounded all the time. I also seem to have a mild psychosis.
How can I find the alkaloids used in TruWeight?
