"Assuming we are not preparing for a photoshoot or competition, a product that merely acts as a diuretic rather than significantly aiding actual lipolysis is not what we want. "Cutting Gel" and "Dermalin-APg" belong in this category -- their active ingredient is aminophylline:
Aminophylline is a xanthine derivative, similar to caffeine, which, as we know, is not a particularly potent
fat burner on its own. In rat studies, it has shown good thermogenic properties due to blockade of adenosine receptors (which provide one of the negative feedback mechanisms for catecholamine induced thermogenesis) and inhibition of phosphodiesterase (which degrade cyclic AMP) -- but this is at extremely high doses, which would kill a human, so it is not applicable (1,2). At therapeutic doses, only adenosine blockade occurs, which will act to increase norepinephrine levels (3)-- but as you will see, norepinephrine stimulates alpha 2 receptors (bad) in addition to beta 2 receptors (good) -- and in stubborn fat, alpha 2's outnumber beta 2's (4).
Like caffeine, aminophylline IS a good diuretic (5), which would account for the girth loss in the studies they reference, which did not measure actual fat loss (6,7). One study did look at fat depth after use of an aminophylline cream, and no difference was found vs. control (8). As a local diuretic, it is likely effective, but as a true fat loss agent, it quite likely is not. Such products WILL make you look more cut while you are taking them, but the true test of their efficacy is a week or two after you have stopped. "
