HydroxyCut Hardcore Next Gen is the latest in a long line of HydroxyCut supplement options provided by MuscleTech.
The HydroxyCut range is very popular and although the “Next Gen” formulation shares a few ingredients with some of the other HydroxyCut blends it also contains a few ingredients that are little more unusual, such as Red Sage and Blue Skullcap. However the marketing material suggests green coffee bean extract is the main weight loss-provider.
MuscleTech states Next Gen is a “sustained-release next generation weight loss & sensory pill”, and the more unusual ingredients appear to have been added to provide the promised “sensory” effect.

Advertised benefits include:
- Scientifically tested weight loss and extreme sensory
- Enhanced mental focus
- Intense burst of energy
- Ultra-amplified thermogenesis
So the new blend is basically a fat burner that has been designed to provide the user with the extra sensory stimulation he or she may need to focus better and be in a more positive mood.
Key Ingredients & Blend Potential
Two capsules provide:
- L-Ornithine HCI (550mg): Some studies suggest the amino acid l-ornithine may be useful for boosting energy levels and supporting the growth of quality muscle tissue.
- Caffeine Anhydrous (250mg): A very common powdered form of caffeine. Possible benefits can include extra energy, faster metabolism and thermogenic fat burning.
- Green Coffee Bean extract (200mg): The chlorogenic acid supplied by green coffee beans can provide weight loss results due to a variation of appetite suppression and/or carbohydrate blocking. Some studies suggest a daily dose of 315mg or more per day is required to achieve noticeable results.
- Green Tea Extract (150mg): A simple, uncomplicated ingredient that has been proven to be an effective fat burner. Scientific research also shows the fat burning potential of green tea can be increased by combining it with caffeine.
- Blue Skullcap Extract (50mg): A Chinese herb. MuscleTech says its presence contributes to the promised “sensory effect”. It has also been used to treat anxiety, so it may offer a calming effect.
- Red Sage Extract (50mg): A second Chinese herb that has been included to enhance sensory abilities. Also the ingredient is known to be good for improving circulation.
- Ginger (40mg): An ingredient that is renowned for its stomach-settling abilities.

Is It Recommended?
We don’t think this is the best Hydroxycut release. The funky Chinese herbs are probably what makes this the ‘Next Gen’ formulation because the other ingredients are found in competing products, and at stronger, more effective dosages. The jury is still out on red sage and blue skullcap for the added sensory experience.
A lot of companies are going this route now, but while new and exciting ingredients are good to see, it doesn’t always mean they are effective. And sometimes the rest of the formula suffers because of their inclusion.
