We’ll cover this question and more so keep reading!
What Do Black Mamba and Black Viper Share:
| There 4 ingredients shared between these fat burners: |
|---|
Caffeine: How does it affect weight loss?
Caffeine is the most common stimulant found in food and supplements. It can aid in increasing your metabolism, energy, and suppress your appetite. (1)
Ephedra: How does it affect weight loss?
Ephedrine was a popular stimulant used in fat burners prior to ~2002. This herb promotes weight loss by increasing metabolism. But it’s not available in dietary supplements anymore.
Instead supplements contain the alkaloid ephedra. They’re not the exact same compound, but ephedra exerts very similar effects. Including the effects on weight loss. Ephedra is most recognized for its effects on energy and suppressing appetite.(2)
Synephrine HCl: How does it affect weight loss?
Synephrine is similar to the other ingredients in this list in that it is also a stimulant. Meaning you may see benefits across different methods of weight loss, including boosting metabolism, energy, and suppressing appetite. It works by acting like adrenaline when ingested, which helps increase metabolism and boost energy without increasing blood pressure. (3)
Yohimbine HCl: How does it affect weight loss?
There are a couple of ways yohimbine functions. The main way is through blocking alpha-2 adrenergic receptors located in fat cells. Once yohimbine has bound with a fat cell, it “turns off” the alpha receptor. Which allows the fat cells to mobilize and burn off. (4)
What Makes Them Different: Black Mamba
Now let’s go over what makes them special!
| There 8 ingredients unique to Black Mamba: |
|---|
Senegalia Berlandieri Extract
Senegalia is a producer of PEA. It’s similar to different beloved ingredient that is no longer available; Acacia Rigidula.
But it may not be quite as strong. In either case, it is going to promote fat breakdown and boost metabolism. (4)
PEA plays an important role in the body and dispersion neurotransmitters. This alkaloid triggers the receptor TAAR-1 in the brain. TAAR-1 then activates the release of the neurotransmitters:
- Serotonin
- Epinephrine(adrenaline)
- Dopamine
- Norepinephrine
Which then promotes the increase in
- Mood
- Cognitive function
- And overall well-being. (13)
2-Aminoisoheptane HCl
This ingredient is also known as DMHA. Typically it is the potent stimulant in a product used to replace DMAA.
In fact, DMHA shares similar structures to that of DMAA. They actually work in the same fashion. They both boost dopamine and noradrenaline uptake while slowing down re-uptake. (5)
Caralluma Extract
This extract comes from a cactus. Studies indicate it may help with weight loss with it’s appetite suppression effects. (6)
Phenylalanine
Studies indicate that supplementing with phenylalanine may increase glucagon. In fact, glycerol levels increased significantly during exercise. This is an indication that this ingredient may help with fat oxidation. (7)
Naringen
Naringin helps burn fat by increasing production of a fat burning hormone, adiponectin. When combined with synephrine, it may even increase energy expenditure.(8)
6,7 Dihydroxybergamottin
6,7 dihydroxybergamottin comes from grapefruit. Therefore may help promote energy expenditure when combined with Synephrine. (8)
Hordenine HCl
Hordenine is similar in chemical structure to Synephrine. Because of this, they work similarly. These enzymes work in your brain to degrade the amount of dopamine, serotonin, and PEA your body has.
By inhibiting this, hordenine may lead to more overall dopamine within your system. Which may help to boost your mood. (9)
Evodiae Rutaecarpa Extract
Evodiae Rutaecarpa Extract shares similar effects to capsaicin. This is due to its vanilloid receptor agonistic activities. Therefore Evodiae will aid in thermogenesis. (10)
What Makes Them Different: Black Viper
| There 4 ingredients unique to Black Viper: |
|---|
L-Tyrosine
Tyrosine is used by the body to make important things in the body. This includes dopamine, adrenaline and noradrenaline, and even hormones relating to metabolism. However, research does indicate it’s benefits are limited to cognitive processes like memory. (11)
Green Tea
There is a ton of research on Green Tea’s effect on weight loss. Some of the more recognized benefits include: (12)
- Improving your body’s efficiency at burning calories
- Improve overall exercise performance
- Reduce visceral (belly fat) and inflammation
Beta Phenylethylamine
Beta Phenylethylamine is used for many purposes. Among them include cognitive enhancement, as a mood booster, weight loss, and as a focus aid.(13)
5-Hydroxytryptophan
5-HTP is a precursor to serotonin. Meaning once consumed, a chemical reaction occurs to produce serotonin.
So why not just take serotonin?
This is because Serotonin is too large of a molecule to pass through the Blood-Brain Barrier. Precursors are much smaller and thus can pass though the Blood-Brain Barrier.†
Diablos VS Black Viper
When you compare these fat burners label VS label, there are 6 ingredients shared between Diablos and Black Viper.
| This Includes: |
|---|
We’ve already gone over these ingredients so feel free to scroll on to what makes Diablos special!
As you’ll see here, Diablos shares an exceptional amount of ingredients with Black Mamba. It is also very similar to the last of Innovative Lab’s trio of fat burners, Hellfire. You can read more on these comparisons HERE.
So overall, what sets Diablos apart from Black Viper and Black Mamba is 7 ingredients:
| This Includes: |
|---|
Hoodia Gordonii Extract
Our first ingredient, Hoodia Gordonii is a popular appetite suppressant. There aren’t many studies on Hoodia to pinpoint a compound that results in appetite suppression, but the studies that have been done (and it’s history within the Khoi-San tribes) indicate it is an effective appetite suppressant. (14)
White Willow Bark Extract
This ingredient acts similarly to aspirin. Which comes back to the “ECA” in Diablos’ name that stands for Ephedra, Caffeine, Aspirin. An ECA stack was common and popular fat burner stack among the bodybuilding community. (15)
Tryptamine
Tryptamine is a metabolite of the amino acid L-tryptophan, which is a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin.(16) By including this metabolite into Diablos, there may be additional support for mood boosting properties.
Black Tea Extract
This ingredient may act as an appetite suppressant ingredient. (17)
Theobromine
Theobromine is similar to caffeine so you can expect the energy boost, as well as the mood boosting properties and appetite suppressant properties which makes it a useful fat burning ingredient. (18)
Cissus Quadrangularis Extract
This ingredient is a herbal ingredient that is packed with antioxidants. Surprisingly, it’s more common to see this ingredient in products related to joint health. Yet, there are some studies indicating that it may be beneficial in weight loss, weight management, and prevention of metabolic syndrome. (19)
Black Pepper Extract
Finally, Black pepper is often used in dietary supplements as an aid for increasing bioavailability. Meaning, to increase how effective each ingredient is when digested. However, it may also act as a thermogenic. (20)
What Do The Reviews Say?
“Very good product. It is difficult to rate the effectiveness of a fat burner. I’m currently using this product in the final weeks of prep for a show. I will say I’m happy with the definition I have gotten. However, you must have your diet dialed in and already at fairly lean (you can see your abs) to see the true effectiveness. Hope this helps”
“You feel the effects of this supplement the first time to use it. Great product at a unheard of price. Thank you same day Supplements!”
“Yes this does increase energy and focus. Not sure on weight loss just yet. Does make me jittery after I have it in my system for an hour and lasts about 6-8. No other issues yet”
“It does burn fat, and its quick.”
“Awesome product and amazing customer service!”
“Is helping me to have energy in my day to day. During my exercise I feel that power (energy).”
“This fat burner is no joke. Plenty of energy. Mood boost and curbs your appetite. Dropping lbs every week.”
“Holy smokes I ripped through my workout like never before and still felt stimulating effect 7 hours after I took one!”
“If you’re not a fan of really sweaty workouts, this isn’t for you! I feel the heat, energy, and appetite suppression. Everything I want from a fat burner! I’m a very happy customer and even happier that with all this COVID-19 stuff, my order was shipped on the regular schedule and I didn’t experience any delays!! Thanks Same Day!”
What Should You Expect:
Black Viper contains 150 mg more active ingredients than Black Mamba and about 155mg more than Diablos. It is worth noting that Black viper has 10 mg more of ephedra than Black Mamba and 25mg more than Diablos. Now Let’s get into the categories, but as always, experiences will vary.
Our first fat burning property is energy: We would award the energy category to Black Viper. Now although Black Mamba and Diablos features more energy ingredients, it has significantly less mgs. So we expect Black Viper to provide a stronger energy component. But as always this can vary person to person.
Our next fat burning property is mood boosting/focus: We’re giving mood boosting and focus as a tie between Diablos and Black Mamba. This is due to the shared PEA alkaloids.
The next section is Thermogenesis: In which we’re expect Black Mamba to be more potent. This is because of all the ingredients going towards it. From Synephrine to Evodiae Rutaecarpa, you have ingredients going towards thermogenesis.
The last fat burning property is appetite suppression: We expect Black Viper to have a stronger appetite suppression. This is because we expect Black Viper’s dosage to play a large role in the appetite suppression. So although it doesn’t have many ingredients directly impacting appetite, the stimulants will take over.
Hellfire VS Black Viper
So we have gone over Black Mamba and Diablos, but this blog wouldn’t be complete without a comparison to Hellfire!
When comparing Black Viper and Hellfire, there are 4 ingredients that are the same or similar.
| This Includes: |
|---|
| Caffeine |
| Beta Phenylethylamine |
| Ephedra |
| Yohimbine HCL/Rauwolfia Serpentine Extract |
This leaves 4 ingredients unique to Hellfire:
| This Includes: |
|---|
| Higenamine HCl |
| Evodiamine |
| Rutacarpine |
| Peppermint Extract |
Higenamine HCl
Higenamine is a beta-receptor agonist that is often compared to Ephedrine and Synephrine. But, Higenamine shows properties of a vasodilator, which leads to increased blood flow to the muscles. Unlike in most stimulants that are vaso-constricting. (21)
Evodiamine
Evodiamine is like capsaicin in that it increases thermogenesis. (22)
Rutacarpine
Rutacarpine is extracted from the dried fruit of Chinese herb Evodia rutaecarpa. Similar to evodiamine, rutacarpine is thermogenic agent. (23)
Peppermint Extract
Peppermint Extract may aid in digestion and appetite suppression. (24)
Which Should You Try?
*Notice Of Delays*
As of September 2021, there are a lot of delays with products in production, manufacturing, and importing. So unfortunately, your options for trying fat burners are limited. But that’s why we write these blogs, so you can find the best option even when they’re limited. Currently, at Same Day Supplements, we are accepting pre-orders for fat burners affected by the delays like Hellfire, Black Mamba, and Diablos.
But if you don’t want to wait out the delays, Black Viper is readily available to ship! However, if you’ve tried one of Innovative Labs’ fat burners before and aren’t ready to give up, you can still purchase it and your order will ship when the items come in. And you don’t have to worry about committing to the pre-order. Our team at SDS is ready to help you update your order if you change your mind.
Now that leaves anyone who hasn’t tried all fat burners mentioned in this blog!
Here’s the scoop, if your tolerance to stimulants is low…like a cup of coffee can give you the jitters… these fat burners may be too much for you. In that case, we would recommend something like RAW Ignite. RAW Ignite has a hefty dose of caffeine, but the serving is split to 3 capsules and that means you can adjust your to how you feel with more ease.
If your tolerance to stimulants is moderate to high you may enjoy Diablos or Black Mamba more. The deciding factor here is going to be based on how important thermogenesis is to you. As we mentioned before, we do expect Black Mamba to perform better for this category. But this will vary between individuals.
Now if you know you have a high tolerance to stimulants, Black Viper and Hellfire are going to be your best options. For starters, Hellfire has 150mg of ephedra, which is going to pack a punch. But on top of that it has 150mg of caffeine. And that means 300mg of stimulants before considering the blend. Black Viper on the other hand has 300mg of caffeine right off the bat. That’s equivalent to 3 cups of coffee in one pill. Then you have 75mg of ephedra, which is more than Diablos and Black Mamba.
