"Inside the Ice Hack for Weight Loss"

My experience with it.

What is it?
Does it work?
How do we do it?

2023 Update | Coach Shelly, Nutrition Street Online

Seems we’re all hearing about a strange “odd ice hack” that “melts fat”, especially for those of us over 40.*

We’re hearing it from social media video ads and so-called “influencers” online.

Before I begin, let me ask…

“Does having a popular YouTube or Instagram make someone a qualified expert?”

I doubt it, but I’ll let you decide that for yourself LOL.

My coaching clients have been asking, and I was curious myself.

So…

I put the ice hack under my microscope of skepticism to find real answers for all of us.

I’m here to expose the truth.

And I’m giving it to you straight with scientific proof to go with it.

First of all…

There are 2 Popular Ice Hacks

There are actually 2 very popular ice hacks for 2023, and I will tell you about them both right now…

#1. The "Traditional" Ice Hack

OLD ICE HACK 1

DRINK ICE WATER

The Myth:

The idea here is that drinking ice water causes your body to burn calories as it warms it up.

The Truth:

According to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, using this old ice hack “doesn’t burn enough calories to be worthy of mentioning.”[1]

Here’s the reality they tell us…

Drinking one cup of ice water burns just a tiny little 8 calories…

YEP, ONLY 8 CALORIES!

How does that translate into weight loss?

Here’s the arithmetic…

According to Mayo Clinic, researchers found that 1 pound of fat equals about 3,500 calories of energy.[2]

So…

When we divide 3,500 fat calories by 8 calories burned per cup of ice water…

We discover that we need to drink a whopping…

438 CUPS OF ICE WATER JUST TO BURN ONE POUND OF FAT!

I hope you’re thirsty, because…

That’s more than 27 gallons!

Does that put things into perspective?

Coach Shelly Says:

I hope you’ve made the same conclusion here that I have, and that is…

Don’t waste time messing around with this old ice hack.

#2 The "New" Ice Hack

Alpine Ice Hack

THE ALPINE METHOD

The Myth:

There’s a new “Alpine” formula that melts away fat by raising your “inner” body temperature.

The Truth:

Okay, this hack of course is done by taking the new dietary supplement Alpilean (Alpilean.com).

I found a mixed bag here…

1. Their marketing message is fundamentally wrong

The main scientific citation they reference actually shows a positive association of body temperature and obesity.[3]

Well, that’s exactly opposite of how their marketing geniuses are pitching it to us!

(* rolling my eyes *)

But set that silliness aside because…

2. The ingredients in their formula really do support weight loss

Look past that flawed marketing gimmick, and what do we find?

We actually discover solid clinical research and scientific evidence that the rare ingredients in Alpilean do support weight loss! [References 5 through 16 below]

And…

By including 6 fat burners instead of just depending on 1, the real geniuses (not their marketing department LOL) who formulated this supplement created something very powerful and robust.

So, it turns out in the end, their cringeworthy advertising served an important purpose…

It got us here to discover that Alpilean is indeed a high-quality “fat burning” (anti-obesity) dietary supplement like nothing else on the market.

Coach Shelly Says:

Because of the solid scientific evidence and “thousands” of 5-star reviews from happy customers, I say look past the gimmicks and give Alpilean a try.

I would buy their recommended 6 pack to get the best price and free shipping (and the bonuses) knowing I’ve got 60 days to get back all my money if it doesn’t support my efforts to “melt away fat” like they say.

Warning: Don’t buy the stuff you see on Amazon… it’s fake (read the reviews there if you don’t believe me). And, you won’t get a refund.

The 6 ingredients in the real Alpilean formula are golden algae, dika nut, drumstick tree leaf, bigarade orange, ginger rhizome, & turmeric rhizome. The counterfeit junk sold on Amazon shows something completely different.

Real Alpilean is only sold on their official Alpilean.com website. And buying it there is the only way to get your money back if you don’t “admire your new toned slim body in the mirror” as they promise.

What else?
