Estrin-D Weight Loss Info

Estrin-D is a new "niche" weight loss product designed for menopausal and perimenopausal (pre-menopausal) women. We've gotten several email inquiries about it but it's been hard to find much relevant information. We did however stumble upon an online Estrin D store as well as the following product FAQ...

Q: How does Estrin-D help overcome menopausal and perimenopausal weight gain?

A: First, from the outset, Estrin-D was designed specifically to address weight gain in menopausal and perimenopausal women. In addition to Estrin-D's patented weight-loss compound, Estrin-D contains a proven hormonal balancing agent shown to reverse mood problems in post menopausal women, combined with a proprietary, potent xanthine mixture (xanthines are caffeine and caffeine-like stimulants) to provide the energy you need to get you through your busy day... and night! Secondly, Estrin-D has been shown in breakthrough preliminary research to reduce the level of ghrelin (the so-called "hunger hormone"), thereby automatically reducing caloric intake. Third, Estrin-D increases resting metabolic rate, boosts energy levels and increases stamina in menopausal and perimenopausal women (so getting regular exercise won't seem like a chore). Finally, Estrin-D elevates mood and helps stabilize your hormonal and emotional fluctuations... so you not only look great, but you feel great, too!


Q: Are there any clinical studies?

A: In a six-week, double-blind clinical trial, 46 overweight subjects were divided into two groups. Group A received the active Estrin-D weight-loss compound. Group B received a placebo (an inert sugar pill). Both groups were instructed to take their assigned capsules with a glass of water 15 minutes before the main meals of the day and not to change their normal eating habits or exercise routine. At the conclusion of the six-week study the data was independently verified and reviewed. The results were astounding! Group A (the Estrin-D group) experienced a significant decrease in overall body weight - an incredible 1603% more weight loss (over 16 TIMES more) than those who took a placebo - without following a complicated diet program or following a prescribed exercise regimen. In other words, the active ingredients in Estrin-D reduced caloric intake automatically. Every single person who took the active Estrin-D compound lost a significant amount of weight. (Of course, a healthy diet and regular exercise are always a good idea, and will help any weight-loss product work even better.) But there's more! Not one of the subjects who continued taking the active Estrin-D weight-loss compound for a period of one full year experienced rebound weight gain. Not one! In other words, the active ingredients in Estrin-D caused easy, automatic, permanent weight loss without calorie-counting and without diet rebound. The full report of this clinical study has been peer-reviewed and published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics.*


Q: Do I need to diet or exercise when using Estrin-D?

A: One of the best things about Estrin-D is the fact that the revolutionary new Estrin-D weight-loss formulation reduces daily caloric intake automatically. In the clinical trial, the active Estrin-D weight-loss component was given to "free feeding" adults... there was no prescribed diet, and all study participants were free to continue their existing healthy eating and exercise programs. The only difference between the Estrin-D group and the "control" group (who received a placebo) was the active Estrin-D compound. In other words, the active ingredients in Estrin-D were clinically proven to produce significant weight loss without requiring subjects to adhere to a strict calorie-restricted diet or strenuous exercise regimen. The study showed that the active ingredients in Estrin-D delayed gastric emptying... in other words, they automatically reduced caloric intake. More recent preliminary data revealed that Estrin-D's active compound influences ghrelin, the so-called "hunger hormone." This discovery has led researchers to begin more extensive clinical research in the emerging field of hormone-influenced caloric regulation.


Q: I haven't dieted or exercised in years. Is it safe for me to begin a diet or exercise program?

A: You should always consult your health-care professional before beginning any weight-loss or exercise program. We suggest that if you haven't exercised in a while, begin with brisk walks, which are healthy and fun.


Q: Can I take Estrin-D if I'm taking prescription medication?

A: If you are currently taking prescription medication or are under the care of a physician, you should always consult your physician before beginning any weight-control program or taking any supplement or medication.


Q: Can I take Estrin-D if I'm sensitive to stimulants?

A: Estrin-D contains a significantly potent xanthine (stimulant) mixture. If you are sensitive to stimulants it may be possible for you to take one capsule once a day (with your doctor's approval, of course) until your body becomes accustomed to Estrin-D.


Q: Is there any ephedra in Estrin-D?

A: Absolutely not.


Q: How long will it be before I see results?

A: If you use Estrin-D's powerful weight-control formula as directed you should begin to see the effects of Estrin-D within a few days. You can expect a dramatic improvement within a few weeks.


Q: Can anyone use Estrin-D?

A: No. Estrin-D is a powerful, non-ephedra stimulant-based weight control compound intended for otherwise healthy menopausal and perimenopausal women who need to lose weight. People who have hypertension, high blood pressure, diabetes, heart trouble, or who are sensitive to stimulants or caffeine should check with their health-care professional before taking Estrin-D.

Note: If you decide to try it, you can buy Estrin-D online...

I ordered Estrin-D from Apple Health Store before I read this store doesn't offer refunds...so do NOT order from them if you haven't tried a product. I have learned my lesson, I will go with a reputable website/vendor that will comply with the 30 or 60 day guarantee. After using 1/2 the recommended dose of Estrin-D for several days, I have the following comments:
even though I only take 1 capsule 15 min. before a major meal, if I take 2nd dose within an 8 hr. period I get a terrible headache and have noticed that I also get cold-like symptoms: runny nose, sneezing and generally feel like I'm sick. The bottle says not to take 2 servings within an 8 hr period, and that is unrealistic since most people don't eat 8 hrs apart. Other than a slight burst of energy, there hasn't been any weight loss and the side effects I've experienced is sufficient that I will not continue this product, and unfortunately cannot return the item for a refund. Potential purchaser... buy from the source and if you're sensitive to caffeine and other such stimulants don't waste your time or money.

Hi. I have just started using EstrinD, so I really can't comment on whether it works or not. I would like to clarify the dosage info though~
A dosage is 2 capsules, not 1. So, you can take 2 doses (or a maximum of 4 capsules) in an 8 hour timeframe. But you should not EXCEED 2 doses (4 capsules) in 8 hours.
Hope this makes sense~ I'm anxious to hear from others who have tried this product.

I started using Estrin-D and LOVE IT! I am 39years old, had my 2nd child a year ago, lost all my 10lbs that are just hanging on, I am one of those who 'barely' eat and I DO exercise, but then am wiped out for the rest of the day and it's so frusterating. The Estrin-D has helped to boost my metabolism and I feel it has helped balance out some of my hormones that changed after delivering my baby........I LOVE IT! Im going on week 4, I hope I continue to feel this GREAT!!!!!!!!!

Just me...

So far, I'm pretty happy with the results I've gotten with Estrin-D. I'm sure it's helped that I'm working out more often!

I just turned 50 and for the last year I have been putting on weight for no reason. I never changed my eating habits, which have always been healthy and i excercise. I have followed the directions on the bottle and have been taking this for about 3 weeks. I have yet to lose a pound. Am I doing something wrong? I really wanted this to work. I have tried other things but to no avail. I am really depressed. What can you tell me?

Hello, Estrin-D is banned in Canada and the US is considering banning it as well. I was going to try it, but after reading several reviews, have decided against it. Here's a link to visit. http://www.herbal-supplements-guide.com/estrin-d-reviews.html

I was thinking of buying Estrin-D but after reading the comments here have decided against it. I am 50 years old and in active menopause. I have gained 7 pounds in the last month and I am using Estrogen cream on thighs as HRT therapy (I can't remember the name). Has anyone used the Formula for WEight Loss pills?

Hello all. I am glad to say that I have been using Estrin-D for 4 weeks and I have lost 15 lbs. last I checked. I have energy and feel great! I am so blessed to finally have found something that is working for me, and I have tryed it ALL. I hope and pray all who try this product are affected in a positive way. God bless.

I have been taking Estrin-D for the past 2 months and love it. Now that I have found something that actually works for me I can not find it in stores anymore. I used to buy it at Walmart but they don't carry any longer. Can anyone tell me why. I was paying 19 a bottle.

I had great results with Estrin-D, no side effects other than my hair grew quickly and was thicker (I have thin hair) After three weeks of taking Estrin-D I saw no weight loss results, BUT loved the way I felt! I was no longer all over the emotional scale. At that point I didn't care if I lost any weight or not, I felt so much better within myself. At about week four I saw a dramatic loss of weight, almost overnight. The same day I noticed the change in myself (it was when I got in my car to go to work, the difference in my seat belt) everyone I encountered that day made a comment about the amount of weight I had lost. I took the pills for quite a while longer, until I could no longer find them in the stores (this was in 2004 to 2006) and I probably lost 50+ lbs. I was very happy. Thick shiny hair that was growing quickly. I felt good within myself. This was the pill for me. Even if I didn't lose any more weight, the emotional way I felt was worth the price. For years now I have not been able to find them in the stores, and should have, long ago, ordered them online, but was moving around for work. I'm settled again and will be ordering online. I just wish I could find them in a shop locally.
