Can Enviga Cause Weight Loss?

Where does 100mg of caffeine come from? Does it all come from only 90mg of green tea?

Carrying all that money you will save by not buying this stuff to the bank will probably burn more calories! :-)

Dr.J, good point. Imagine how many calories one can burn by walking home with 105 bottles of Enviga. :-)

HaHaHa!! Good one!!

I might drink this- not for weight loss, and not 3 cans a day, but I like energy drinks and if it's low in calories itself, it might be a nice change from sugarfree Red Bull. I'll have to try it and see if it tastes okay.

It's currently available here in NY. I tried the Berry flavor. I don't like it too much, but that's because it has a slight Green Tea taste, and I don't really like Green Tea in the first place. But it is cheaper than Red Bull (which is about $1.60 wholesale, $2-3 bucks individual). Also, in regards to caffeine and metabolism, I think I read somewhere that your body gets used to the caffeine after a few days, so the metabolism effects wear off after that.

I drink "Crystal Clear" flavored water. it tastes really sweet so you think you're getting spoiled. it contains no calories as well and because it is water it keeps me hydrated, thus keeping me alive, thus burning calories. when you think about it any thing you consume that is calorie free will cause caloric burning. (couldn't think of better wording)
PEOPLE ARE SO GULIBLE!!!- it makes me sad:(

The problems with drinks like this is while they do burn minimal amount of calories from caffeine. Caffeine makes some people hungrier so they eat more to compensate any burn.
I also wonder like was stated why they didn't test people who need to loose weight?

Oh yeah, Enviga is not zero-calorie. Each can has 5 calories.

I used to drink Red Bull all the time - but it had a ton of calories and it got expensive.

It seems as though Coca Cola is cashing into this energy drink market, but trying to market it as a healthy alternative by using words like "calorie free" and "tea." I'm not buying it (no pun intended).

Coca cola cannot get healthy even if it goes in for tea tactics. Isn't it better to drink green tea instead?

Guys, I Tell You, Don't drink this stuff. Why should I drink this chemical laden junk that you shouldn't put in your body? Aspartame and Ace-K are poisonous sweeteners that we now know can cause determintal effects in your body.

Drink green tea instead. Better yet, put stevia or xylithol in your green tea. Stay away from artificial sweeteners.

For what it is, why don't you just mix extra strong green tea that you brew yourself with diet Mountain Dew? Seems like that's all this stuff is. Even if it does burn calories, I can't believe it'd burn enough to offset the unhealthy lifestyle habits of the people that are most likely buying it (the very overweight population). It's very sad that Coca-Cola is preying on people that want to believe that this drink will help them lose weight.

Hmmm, very interesting. I'll take it all into careful consideration.

Not going to lie, I'm a bit of an energy drink fiend. Tab Energy (5 calories a can!) is my current fix. It wakes me right up when I need it, and tastes much better than sugar-free Red Bull (which, in my opinion, tastes like cat pee meets cotton candy).

Gimmick? Oh, hell yes. But I'll be trying a can of this trash before I knock it, not going to lie

-Cat pee meets cotton candy- is a very accurate description; but MAN it gets your ass going at 5 AM when it's your only opportunity to hop on the elliptical trainer! Hi, my name is Jo, and I'm a sugar-free red bull addict... The thing is, pretty much ALL of these low calorie energy drinks have poisonous sweeteners and taste like crap- but we keep buying them; so they're gonna keep coming out with NEW and BETTER marketing ploys for us suckers. And for the record, I LOVE plain green tea! It does the same thing, but my brain can't seem to boil water at that wee hour.

i function better with the sweeteners that are bad for me. i tried stevia and it tastes fine BUT a few hours later i had raised itchy flesh colored welts on my face. didnt use stevia and they went away. the next week used stevia and within hours the welts were back. tested it several times with the same results so i am back to using nutrasweet and sweet & low!

I dont know. I bought a 6-pack at Acme for like 6$.
Not much to lose, you know?

IM STUFFED.

I dont know if it is a result of the drink or something else.

Maybe thats just a way of my body rejecting the drink, I dont know...

We shall see.

In a way though, I almost hope it doesnt work..
Think about it... You get hooked on enviga.. Then maybe stop liking it or stop buying it... And then ur metabolism plunges.
Id say its unhealthy to drink 3aday. :-l

In that case, why not use something like this?: http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/drinks/6b4f/

Personally, I like the stuff. Do I expect to get thin from it? No... But it's tastier than Sugar free Red Bull, costs about the same, maybe a little less, the energy lasts longer and it curbs my appetite. I drink a can in the morning and a can late afternoon to kill cravings.

106 Kilocalories = 106,000 calories,,, sounds weird to me

I actually like Enviga. No, I do not believe that it will help me lose weight, but seeing as how I work ten hour days, I NEED something to wake my ass up in the morning! I really am a fan of Sugar Free Red Bull - not that it tastes great, but it helps me wake up and focus on my work - but Enviga is cheaper and ultimately more satisfying.

Their marketing ploy is ridiculous, but they flat out tell you the truth: drinking THREE CANS will burn 60-100 calories extra - that's nothing. They're laying it all out there for you; the American populus is just so misinformed and ignorant when it comes to weight loss.

I agree with Aidyn - I love Enviga too, in spite of the marketing being bullshit.

Sure theyre marketing themselves as a "weight loss product" But anyone can who actually believes that theyll magically lose 5 pounds from drinking it is kidding themselves. Everyone knows that nothing can help weight loss except eating and working out..not fun duh. I cant believe Enviga is being sued for this. What about all the other fake crap that says they help you lose weight? ie various pills and such.

60-100 calories is NOTHING. Its like half a bag of m&ms or half a cookie. So in all relativity(you eat like 2000 or more calories a day), it doesnt really matter if it actually causes weight loss or not. A cup of coffee or caffeine pills will do the exact same thing.
Anyways, I absolutely love this drink, they just got rid of peach flavor which I was upset about. I like this drink because it supplies you with caffeine but you dont get a crash like you do from coffee. Also, it has little calories in it, so that in itself could facilitate weightloss, or atleast prevent it. Im really glad they have this stuff available on my campus, it has helped me through many-a-tests.
