SlimTurboVital, a high-protein cure!

plusieurs-boites-slimturbovitalSLIMTURBOVITAL sound familiar?

The name of this slimming cure is catchy, isn’t it?

Slimming. A promise of rapid weight loss. And a product that promotes vitality. What more could you ask for!

Beyond its name, will SlimTurboVital be a real helping hand in losing those extra kilos we’ve been struggling to shed?

SlimTurboVital is a high-protein, fat-burning slimming cure that offers a highly effective way of eliminating superfluous fat, while preserving muscle.

Visit Promises of SlimTurboVital

You don’t have to go anywhere, we’re just offering you a small selection of the promising ads on the official SlimTurboVital website.

“The cure that makes stars lose weight”.
“No dieting, so no weight regain”.
“It allows you to lose 16kg in less than 2 months in 100% of cases”.
“100% satisfaction guaranteed ”
” No yo-yo effect “

If you’re one of our regular readers, you’ll be aware that these kinds of promises don’t inspire confidence, but rather call out our sense of vigilance and push us to investigate even further.

Vital Academy, the 1000 Addresses

1000 is a bit of an exaggeration. But a closer look at the official SlimTurboVital website reveals that Vital Academy uses multiple addresses, making it difficult to identify.

In fact, it is present in Paris, Nice and even Belgium under another name, that of the Phoenix company…
And where exactly are the laboratories where this product is manufactured?

And what standards and legislation govern them?

One piece of information we haven’t been able to verify says that the product is manufactured in Eastern Europe. Some say Czechoslovakia, from where they claim to have received their product. That’s all we have for the moment.

In short, several addresses for the same company is a bit dodgy in our opinion!

SlimTurboVital, a Composition Nebula

When it comes to SlimTurboVital’s composition, we’re still out of luck. The official website contains no information on the ingredients contained in this high-protein powder.

What the official website tells us :

SlimTurboVital is a high-protein product designed to force the body to draw the energy it needs from fatty body mass.

At first glance, you might think it’s another one of those high-protein diets, where calorie intake is drastically reduced, in order to achieve rapid weight loss while preserving muscle mass.

Proteins in themselves do not make you lose weight, but in this type of slimming cure, they help to ensure the body’s vital functions, while the intake of calories and vital nutrients is reduced to a minimum.

However, SlimTurboVital claims not to be a diet.

One wonders, then, what would cause weight loss by simply consuming a protein-rich drink?

The official website highlights the action of ketone bodies, which “play a long-term appetite-regulating role”.

But what are ketone bodies and their action on appetite?

Ketone bodies are substances produced during the breakdown of fats in the body. They are eliminated by the kidneys via urine.

If the release of ketone bodies is excessive, as is usually the case with high-protein diets, their excessive concentration becomes toxic, leading to ketoacidosis.

This phenomenon can lead to severe disorders, such as vomiting and a tendency to hypothermia, with a risk of coma in the most extreme cases.

Here again, the SlimTurboVital cure does not require any particular diet, and we wonder how the production of ketone bodies could be increased, if at all in a zone ensuring healthy weight loss for the body.

What the official SlimTurboVital doesn’t tell us

After extensive research, we were finally able to find the exact composition of SlimTurboVital. It’s actually a whey protein concentrate, with 11.6g of protein per 1 sachet.

Whey protein is the liquid product created by the coagulation of whey. It is very rich in protein and low in fat. It helps build muscle through protein synthesis, and is widely used in bodybuilding to promote muscle gain.

In fact, whey protein may have a direct effect on reducing appetite and increasing the feeling of satiety. Combined with physical activity, it improves fat loss.

It could therefore promote weight loss in people undertaking intensive physical activity with a view to slimming down.

Unfortunately, there is no serious scientific research to support this theory.

The other ingredients are sweeteners (acesulfame-K, saccharin sodium, sodium cyclamate), color (quinoline yellow), thickener (xanthine gum and vanilla flavoring), emulsifier (soy lecithin).

Presentation Dosage of SlimTurboVital

SlimTurboVital comes in soluble sachets to be taken before meals.

How many times a day, the official website doesn’t tell us.

We advise those taking this cure to be vigilant about the quantities swallowed. As the dosage of ingredients is not communicated, we are unable to predict the effects of this product on human health.

Side effects Contraindications of SlimTurbovital

According to SlimTurboVital’s manufacturer, no side effects or contraindications are to be feared, as long as a balanced diet and sufficient intake of essential calories and nutrients are maintained.

We can’t be reassured when faced with such a protein concentrate.

The ingredients we’ve found are certainly safe for the body, but the question is, why take the risk of gorging yourself on protein if your body doesn’t need it?

Testimonials from SlimTurboVital users

Our research also led us to discover that Vital Academy is far from unanimously acclaimed by its customers.

Here again, a very telling feedback found on the 60 millions de consommateurs website:

Hello,
An advert in my mailbox for a miracle diet and I’ve been tricked. Order placed on Sunday, May 10, 2015 for just over €56. The order was supposed to arrive within 10 days. It didn’t. I sent an email to the vitalacademy website and a certain Adrienne told me that there must have been a problem with the post and that I’d have to wait a little longer. I get back to her by e-mail (there’s no telephone number) and she tells me she’s sending me a second parcel, which in turn never arrives. It’s impossible to get a tracking number. After many emails, she asks me to send her my IBAN for the refund. I retort that all the site has to do is credit my credit card again. No reply. My subsequent e-mails started to be a little less kind, and I let her know that I wasn’t going to leave it at that. In the meantime, I’d been on the “*** or reliable” site and there were a lot of us who’d had the same experience, the same speeches from this Adrienne. An Internet user told me to try calling the number for the claims processing center. By dint of harassment and emails every day, I’ve just been credited back the amount debited, and they had the nerve to do it on May 10, 2015, the day of my initial order. This site is a monumental *** and I think we must do what is necessary to prohibit it from continuing because many people have not been reimbursed. Some have received their order, but not many. As for the results, that’s another story?
I am at your disposal for any further information you may need. I hope that other people will do what is necessary to stop this ***. I was reimbursed because I decided not to give up, but others won’t have the courage or will give up.
Best regards,

On all the forums, the number of dissatisfied participants is very high indeed. We haven’t found a single positive testimonial. They all talk about non-arrival of delivery, even after payment. And everyone has had to deal with just one person, a certain Adrianne, who promises a reshipment, then a third and finally a refund. But in reality, very few people can testify to having received this second or third shipment, and even fewer have been reimbursed. Which gives us pause for thought.

Our policy on testimonials has always been clear: we never use them as a criterion for evaluating a product. But we are obliged to let you know what’s happening on the forums.

Price and refund

SlimTurboVital comes from the Vital Academy company, and can be purchased on their official website for €54 for an attack cure (target: 1 to 6 kg less), or €129 for a total enriched cure + (target: 6 to 16 kg), excluding delivery costs which are your responsibility.

Delivery is made by post within 10 days according to the manufacturer, but not according to users. Payment is by credit card. In the event of a refund request, your bank details will be requested.

Guarantee SlimTurboVital

The site displays a “Guaranteed or your money back” guarantee, without saying anything more about the conditions of this offer.

Here’s the exact text published on the official website:

MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE
Vital Academy is confident of the quality of its products and, to your complete satisfaction, will refund any item returned with its invoice. You have thirty days from receipt of the parcel to make your request for reimbursement.

SlimTurbo Vital vs SlimxTravital: reliable or scams?

During our investigation we found two identical sites promoting a single product under two different brand names. So identical, in fact, that they use the same structure, the same arguments, the same interface… We believe that presenting a single product under two different names is a blatant sign of scamming and bad faith.

Here are the website names of the two products: www.slimturbovital.com and www.slimxtravital.com.

We’ll let you judge for yourself.

Our review on SlimTurboVital

Our investigation of SlimTurbo Vital has led us to the following conclusions:

  • The company Vital Academy seems dubious and the location of its laboratories is unknown ;
  • The composition is not disclosed on the official website;
  • The dosage is not indicated, nor are the contraindications;
  • Claims with no scientific or experimental basis;
  • recurrent delivery problems and withdrawals from customers’ accounts without their consent.

As a result, we cannot recommend the SlimTurboVital slimming cure. Based on the information we have gathered, SlimTurboVital is not serious enough to be classified as a safe and effective fat burner.

    I wish I could find the same vanilla bags as in 2013, I only have 3 or 4 kilos to lose, but I’ll stop before the 16 kilos, plus I was very fit.

      Hello PATRICIA,
      You can send your request directly to the product’s website, but please read our article before ordering.

      Have a nice day!

  • Name*

    I don’t agree with everything that’s said, I placed an order which I received, the effect was amazing, I lost 14 kg in several months while remaining bedridden, that was 3 years ago and no yo yo effect since 2013 but I pay attention to my balanced diet without depriving myself of good things that I had banned during and after the cure. Exceptions can be made in moderation.

    The vanilla flavour is very pleasant to drink very fresh, but on my second attack cure order, I received the chocolate slimming sachets which I didn’t like as much, but I’ve received all my orders.

    I’m back to saying that this goes back to 2013.
    Patricia
