Black Ice Fat Burner Review (ET Labz)

Black Ice is a fat burning supplement from ET Labz. ET Labz is an underground supplement company producing some interesting products. Black Ice boasts (over) 300 mg of caffeine and unknown dosages of DMBA, Eria Jarensis, Noopept, Alpha Yo, and other ingredients. 

I took it once and it didn’t cause any crash, but caused me to sweat a lot more than normal. The focus was definitely dialed-in.

I’d only recommend Black Ice for experienced users, as this is too strong for newcomers to the supplement game. 

Read on for additional details of my experience, the best prices for the Black Ice fat burner, and a breakdown of its ingredient label.

My Experience with Black Ice Fat Burner 

I took Black Ice, just one time. The effects were strong, especially in energy, thermogenic, and focus.

Effects 

Energy came in fast, within 5-10 minutes and gave you a strong sense of urgency and lasted for about 4-5 hours.

The focus was strong, and kept me dialed in during my workout.

Due to the high focus, the mood elevation was slightly dampered, but after the workout, the mood elevation became apparent and felt good.

Within 5-10 minutes of working out, the thermogenic effects came on and were fairly strong.

No crash or negative side effects

Definitely more sweating than normal, possibly due to the Alpha Yo, but that’s the only side effect I felt.

Flavor 

Just one small 2 mm capsule that was easy to swallow.

Scoop Size 

A full serving is a 2 mm capsule in a blue/black color scheme.

Ingredients 

Below you’ll find the ingredients for Black Ice, along with a breakdown of each ingredient.

Most of Black Ice’s ingredients are contained in a 445 mg proprietary “Black Ice Stim Blend.” This consists of 1,3 DMBA, Guarana Seed Extract (22% Caffeine), Eria Jarensis, Choline Citrate, Noopept, Vinpocetine, Piperine, Alpha Yohimbine HCL, and Huperzine-A.

If I had to guess, I’d say there was 100 mg DMBA, 100 mg Guarana Seed Extract (adding another 22 mg of caffeine), 100 mg Eria Jarensis, 100 mg Choline Citrate, 20 mg Noopept, 15 mg Vinpocetine, 5 mg Piperine, 3 mg Alpha Yo, and 2 mg Huperzine. Again, this is just speculation.

Caffeine Anhydrous – 300 mg

Caffeine anhydrous is the standard form of caffeine found in coffee, tea, and energy drinks. It’s one of the most popular drugs in the world, if not the most popular.

Acute effects include energy, focus, enhanced sports performance, and possibly even a will to live. Okay, I added that last one.

300 mg in a fat burner is on the upper end of most fat burner supplements on the market. In addition this this, the proprietary blend contains Guarana Seed Extract (std to 22% caffeine), so the total caffeine amount may be higher.

1,3 Dimethylbutylamine HCL (DMBA)

1,3 dimethylbutylamine HCL, also known as 1,3 DMBA, DMBA, 4-amino-2-methylpentane, AMP, or AMP Citrate, is a very rare stimulant nowadays. It was more commonplace about a decade ago.

It’s in the realm of DMHA in terms of effects for motivation, energy, and mood

Guarana Seed Extract (22% Caffeine) 

Paullinia cupana, also known as guarana, is a fruit bearing tree, the seeds of which are ground into powder and used in traditional Amazonian medicine.

Guarana is supplemented primarily for its stimulant properties. It has a 22% yield of caffeine, meaning 100 mg of Guarana Seed Extract gives you 22 mg of actual caffeine. Guarana Seed Extract caffeine tends to be stronger that caffeine anhydrous.

Eria Jarensis

Eria Jarensis (N-Phenethyl Dimethylamine) is a stimulant that is becoming a popular alternative to DMAA or DMHA. It increases levels of dopamine and noradrenaline in the user and can enhance mood, increase motivation, and dial in concentration.

With Eria and other stimulants, it is based on the purity of the ingredient itself. Sometimes a product with 150 mg Eria can feel 20x better than one with 400 mg Eria. Usual doses range from 150 mg all the way up to 500 mg as found in Flame Pre Workout (which is amazing).

Choline Citrate

From Nootropics Expert, choline citrate is choline is an ester of citric acid and helps with the creation of Acetylcholine, increasing your focus. 

Choline citrate is a rather obscure focus ingredient that isn’t seen much in sports supplements.

N-Phenylacetyl-L-prolylglycine ethyl ester (Noopept)

N-Phenylacetyl-L-prolylglycine ethyl ester, more commonly known as Noopept, is a synthetic nootropic ingredient with cognitive boosting and psychostimulatory effects. Typical doses range from 20 mg to 50 mg.

Vinpocetine

Vinpocetine is a man-made chemical. Its structure is similar to a substance found in the periwinkle plant. It can be used for improving memory and thinking skills, boosting energy, for weight loss, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.

There does appear to be some effect on the slowing of dementia or Alzheimer’s.

Piperine

Piperine is also known as Black Pepper Extract, which helps with absorption of supplements.

Typical doses usually range from 2.5 mg to 20 mg.

Alpha Yohimbine HCL 

Also known as simply, “Alpha Yo”, is a central nervous system stimulant. It can be quite divisive, with some individuals reporting anxiety, headaches, sweating, chills, and increased blood pressure. 

Although for me, I rarely get any of the noted side effects that come with this controversial ingredient, but for this, I did, mostly just increased saliva and cleared out my sinuses.

In one study, Yohimbine was also studied in elite soccer players, and was found to decrease body fat by 1.8 percentage points over the course of three weeks. No significant changes were found in the placebo group (PubMed).

And in one other study, examined the effects of yohimbine in 20 obese females who consumed a 1,000- calorie diet for three weeks. The women taking yohimbine lost significantly more weight than those taking a placebo — 7.8 pounds (3.6 kg) vs. 4.9 pounds (2.2 kg) (PubMed).

Most doses usually range from 0.5 mg to 3 mg.
