Hi. :wave: It's probably not harmful, but I don't know how effective it would be. Be careful of the guarana - it can be nasty if you combine it with coffee or another caffeine source. :exclm:

If you check the "Nutrition and Supplements" forum, you'll probably find more info on thermogenics. :thup:

I use to take Trim Spa and Atkins Accel which have these ingredients. In a true clean Induction you shouldn't have caffeine. I stopped taking these supplements because I like the natural energy that I get while in ketosis and induction. Besides I am very caffeine sensitive. I have also read that the caffeine triggers snacking and hunger so I would say that it's better for you not to take these supplements.

Have a great day!
