Supplement Reviews
The vast majority of "expert" sources in the diet and fitness supplement industry have hidden agendas based on selling supplements. Most fitness magazines are owned by supplement companies, athletes are paid for their endorsements, and research is often funded by the product patent holder or parent company. Because of these types of bias, it can be incredibly difficult to find objective, neutral research and experience-based information about what supplements have value, which ones are hype, and which ones might even be dangerous. Here at the Inner Circle we do not sell supplements and we never will. We have no connection whatsoever to any supplement companies and our mission is to provide honest, unbiased and well-researched information about supplements so that you can make more informed decisions.

Tribulus Terrestris: Can This Herb Build Muscle, Burn Fat And Boost Male Libido?
By Tom Venuto
Tribulis Terrestris is a supplement (an herb) promoted as a testosterone booster and libido enhancer. Tribulus allegedly works by increasing your body's production of Luteinizing hormone (LH). LH, in turn signals the body to release more testosterone. Tribulis does seem to have a cult following, and some people swear they notice some positive effects. With claims like "bigger muscles AND a better sex life" it's no wonder that men are running to the health food store to snatch this stuff up. But don't get too excited yet.

Krill Oil: Fish Oil Of The Future? An Independent Scientific Review of This Novel Marine Omega-3 Fatty Acid And Antioxidant Supplement
By Tom venuto
Krill oil is promoted as a highly bio-available marine source of omega-3 fatty acids plus antioxidants.

| Here's what people are saying about Burn The Fat and the Inner Circle...
"Tom Venuto is a credible, qualified professional who knows his stuff. More than that, he has a genuine concern for the people he's helping. His "Inner Circle" is a premier quality resource - well worth the money, and a benefit to anyone, anywhere, of any age who is trying to lose weight. I highly recommend it!"
Paul Crane, UltimateFatBurner.com
"I just listened to the first "Burn the Fat Show" and this one 20-minute message is at the top of my list. I have motivational CD's and books coming out the wazoo and you've set a standard in your show that I look forward to listening to again and again. Keep up the GREAT work!"."
Steve Wiebusch
The support here is incredible for my morale. I'm excited about the inches I've lost. In the past when I'd get halfway there, I'd lose motivation and quit. I've never made it this far and still felt motivated to keep going. "
Rikki Fougere
"I have many people everyday ask me what my secret is and how I lost 137 pounds. I tell them the same thing - I use Tom Venuto's Burn The Fat - Feed The Muscle program and it all boils down to "How bad do you want it?"
Mike Ogorek
"I've been following the Burn The Fat recommendations and I now fit into a pair of jeans that I havent worn in a long time. The Salvation Army must love me these days, as I've liberated 12 clothes hangers and two shelves of oversized clothes since New Years!"
