At first glance, VPX Meltdown looks to be a standard bodybuilding-style fat burner. It is stimulant strong and comes with some powerful advertising – right down to the company motto of “Live Powerfully”. However, with the high number of positive customer reviews and an effective clinical research program, the impression is that VPX Meltdown may be a cut above the rest.
Pros
Cons
We take a full look at VPX Meltdown.
VPX Meltdown looks to be one of the best bodybuilding supplements on the market. It is backed with clinical evidence and the company does not pull any punches about potential risks.
The high number of genuine looking positive customer feedback comments shows that people obviously like this supplement and are using it without adverse effects.
You do need to exercise some judgement before you buy VPX Meltdown. This supplement is strong and it should not be used by anyone with health issues. Full a further look, scroll down to the Side Effects section below.
One tub of 120 capsules (between 40 days – 4 months supply, depending on use) costs $64.95 and comes with some free bonus items, including a VPX tee shirt. Shipping is free to US addresses.
VPX Meltdown is a fat burner diet pill that is aimed at the bodybuilders and gym users in general, rather than the casual dieter looking to lose a few pounds.
It contains a range of stimulants and is supposed to raise the metabolic rate for up to six hours. The supplement will also raise energy levels, so you will probably need to work out in the gym in order to burn some of this off or you could be left feeling strung out and jittery.
This supplement is not for the novice or for people with health issues. It may raise blood pressure levels and increase heart rate.
However, if you are looking for a stimulant to help support your weight training or workouts, VPX does have some clinical evidence and may be safer than many others on the market.
According to VPX, the supplement,
activates fat burning mechanisms in your body while simultaneously blocking the internal biochemistry that prevents you from burning fat.
It does this,
by guarding one of the body’s key fat burning hormones called Norepinephrine (NE)
Norepinephrine is a hormone and neurotransmitter that is usually released by the brain in response to physiological changes. The effects are manifested in alertness, sexual arousal, and a lift in mood.
Ephedrine and amphetamines have a direct effect upon Norepinephrine. VPX Meltdown contains legal ingredients that will cause these same hormone lifting effects but without as many health risks.
As a dietary supplement, the maximum recommended serving is three MELTDOWN capsules. However, begin use with one to two MELTDOWN capsules daily to assess tolerance. Never exceed more than three total capsules daily or in a single dose. As a dietary supplement, take MELTDOWN upon awakening.

According to VPX,
Yes, we think it does work, but it will not suit everyone. If you fall into any of the groups that come under the warning categories you certainly should not take this supplement.
In addition, unless you are active and following some kind of exercise plan, it probably will not suit you either.
However, we like the fact that VPX do not pull any punches. The risks are explained and, compared to many other supplements on the bodybuilding market, it comes with adequate advice and warnings.
VPX Meltdown has been the subject of five clinical tests and was found to be effective.
One test showed that the fat burning effect was long lasting. The conclusion was that,
VPX Meltdown enhances energy expenditure and fat oxidation more than placebo for several hours after ingestion in fully rested and post-exercise states without any adverse hemodynamic responses.

VPX Meltdown is a strong fat burner that may help you increase Norepinephrine levels, boost the metabolism and decrease appetite. Each serving is equal to three capsules.
Fancy name for the basic stimulant effect of caffeine-based ingredients. Research has shown that caffeine supplements can help increase fat burning, but results are not always long-lasting, as the body becomes accustomed to the effect.
This is an amino acid, which is found in chocolate and other foodstuffs. These Phenylethylamine derivatives are in the same chemical class as psychoactive drugs and stimulants including amphetamines
This is based on different forms of this African plant extract. Yohimbe is known for its stimulant and aphrodisiac effects.

Most customers have not suffered with side effects and there is a large amount of positive feedback for VPX Meltdown that outweighs the number of negative comments.
Feedback looks genuine and people really do seem to like this supplement.
One female customer reported,
This stuff really works if you need a burst of energy for your workouts. If you take 1, it is a good energy pick me up. If you take 2 or 3 (careful), then you won’t be able to sit still. If you are sitting around the house it will make you get up and clean. If you are going to work out, it will give you the energy and motivation to push through
Another customer said,
I am not a bodybuilder by any means, but these are my go to instead of coffee in the morning. I only take 1 in the morning, and it helps give me more energy and actually helps with my mood. I would highly advise not taking any late afternoon or you’ll have trouble sleeping.
It delivers exactly what I expected. Great product. Keep me going through my workout. Be using it a long time. No crashes
Other positive comments include,
Awesome
This is the real deal, people… well for me it is.
Love it!
EXCELLENT WORKOUT SUPPLEMENT,
Not everyone is as pleased. There are a few negative customer reviews and not everyone has found this supplement strong.
I thought this would give me more energy and I feel it does nothing for me
said one customer.

VPX Meltdown is also available via Amazon.com. A container of 120 capsules costs $68.99 and includes free US shipping.
International customers should check with the rules and regulations of their country before attempting to purchase in case of customs contraventions.
There are only a couple of small downsides to VPX Meltdown. We would have liked to have seen a guarantee, and some of the product information is confusing. But we can’t argue with the evidence; it seems to work. Although it is certainly not suitable for everyone, if you are following a workout routine it will probably help you maximise your results.
Bearing in mind these reservations, we think the good points far outweigh the bad. You should not take it if you have health issues, but there is plenty of good about VPX Meltdown. We’d recommend it to those with an active lifestyle who are looking to boost their gains.
