Calotren Review
Calotren markets itself largely through radio advertisements, by Top of the World Distributors(TOTWD). This company is responsible for a number of general health products, and unfortunately they do not accept any returns. In fact, their "about" page is all about the fact that they do not accept refunds.
Price: $69.95
Ingredients and Mechanism of Action
So the question remains, what is Calotren? They call themselves an "all natural protein formula working as a nutritional supplement that assists the body in shedding excess body fat and toxins naturally." So in other words, it's a collagen based supplement. I guess they never got the memo, collagen has never been proven to do anything for weight loss. Its counterpart CLA has, but only in extremely high doses, generally around 3000mg to 4500mg per serving. However, Calotren also contains green tea, synephrine, and caffeine, just in case I suppose.

Overall Impression of Calotren:
To be blunt, I was not impressed. Calotren is a sub par product at an extremely high price. You will not see results beyond those of your diet and exercise plan. Their magical weight loss tip: don't eat for 3 hours prior to bedtime. Um...duh!
