Consumer Review: Hydroxycut Was Giving Me Heart Palpitations, So I Reduced The Dosage.
I just started Hydroxycut this week. One the first day, I took 3 pills a day, an hour before meals, but no later than 4pm. I weigh 120lbs at 5'6, but it's mostly muscle since I weight train regularly. I'm female.
Anyways, I was fine with the first two dosages, felt really energized and in a good mood. But after I took the third dosage for the day just before my workout, I got severe heart palpitations and felt light-headed to the point where I had to go sit in the locker room to calm down. The palpitations stopped after about an hour and 15 minutes. I also felt extremely fatigued after the palpitations stopped, but could not sleep that night. However, even though I got palpitations, I was able to work out harder than ever because I felt better if I kept moving. I've decided to try just 2 per day no later than 12:30pm and not before my workout because it really affects me too much then. And I really need my sleep.
I've already taken one capsule today and feel fine. I think it's all in the dosage and experimenting to see what your body can or cannot take. I think if I'd taken the full dosage I would've had a heart attack!
