In an earlier post we reviewed the widely recognized and praised all in one Animal Pak supplement. Consisting of vitamins, minerals, omegas, proteins, MCTs and every other essential nutrient aiding muscle growth while ensuring optimum health. In this post we will talk about another supplement by Animal. A great all around fat burner functioning for a balanced body fat. We will analyze how it works, the benefits, side effects and protocols to follow to ensure maximum output, in this Animal Cuts Review.
A common issue experienced by many gym rats is that although you’re working your skin off in the gym, the muscle build is not in parallel with fat loss. I too have been through this specific scenario. The reason behind is the absence of a fat burning workout parallel with muscle build. In lamest terms “cardio”. Sadly though most people skip cardio simply because of the lack of enthusiasm.
Animal Cuts can assist both the cardio and non cardio groups to achieve their fat loss goals. But unlike most other weight burner pills out there in the market, Animal Pak isn’t for everyone. We will see why.
Animal Cuts Ingredients
If our readers have read our review on Redcon 1 MRE, you are most probably familiar with different nutrient complexes. The same protocol is practiced here at Animal. The pills are different complexes made up of several ingredients. Let’s crack open the Animal Cuts Review with the ingredient analysis.

It also contains caffeine which in turns boosts metabolism, increases circulation and digestion.

Summary of the Benefits

- Suppress appetite
- Increases metabolism
- Most ingredients aid in maintaining general health
Aside from being regarded as a pure fat burner, you can also see that it functions as a pre workout. And most ingredients help lower blood pressure and maintain cardiovascular health. Therefore it serves as a multi purpose supplement just like Animal Pak.
Animal Cuts Dosage
The official recommendation by Animal itself is as follows. Take Twice Daily – Take one packet when you wake up, and one packet 4-6 hours later. Use for 3 weeks straight, and then 1 off week. Taking the supplement with a meal is the best protocol to follow.
The red one is the stimulant pill and blue is the water shedding pill. Hence if you don’t want the stimulants of a fat burner, eliminate the red pill.
Am I eligible to consume?
Now that you are equipped with the knowledge about the ingredients of this well structured and specific supplement, you might be wondering if this is the right call to make.
Well here’s the catch. If you are a beginner or even an intermediate lifter hitting the gym only 3-4 times a week, this is NOT for you. As you can clearly realize the complexes mostly work for one particular goal and that is weight loss. Apart from this there are numerous extra benefits.
However if you still feel like you aren’t losing weight despite your work ethic and keeping the diet in check, you can take a look at this supplement. Also Animal Pak is not for vegans, nor pregnant or breastfeeding women. Also despite the claims of lowering blood pressure and aiding heart health, people who suffer from the said conditions should also steer away from this.
Animal Cuts Side effects
Every supplement comes with pros and cons. The side effects must be mentioned and it’s no different in the Animal Cuts Review. Many users of fat burner pills complain of excessive sweat. It holds true for Animal Pak as well. A few other common side effects include fatigue, dehydration, dizziness, restlessness, insomnia and vomiting.
However it may not be the same for each and every user as the body chemistry is unique. As always consult a trained physician prior to consumption. However Animal Cuts Review by customers are mostly positive.
Final Thoughts
In conclusion of the Animal Cuts Review. Animal has been manufacturing nutrients since 1983 and is a well recognized brand throughout the fitness industry for the positive customer reviews. Apart from the fat burns it also adds a tremendous boost to your workouts.
But remember, as with any product too much is too bad. Therefore please stick to the recommended dosage and make sure to hit the gym as consistently and as hard as possible. If handled the right way this is definitely worth the money.
