Does BPI Sports Burn XS Work?
Note: This is a review. Click here to visit the BPI Sports Burn XS website.
BPI Sports Burn XS is one of quite a lot of products in BPI Sports’ fat burning line. One the one hand, you might wonder why so many. If they would just get it right, they’d only need one. But on the other hand, it makes sense to make products that cater to different needs. After all, we’re all different and may need different kinds of support.
BPI Sports Burn XS calls itself a “Thermogenic Euphoric Catalyst.” In other words, it burns fat while making you feel good. It’s a combination fat burner and brain booster that promotes energy, focus, and concentration while suppressing your appetite and boosting your metabolism to burn more fat. If this stuff works like it’s supposed to, losing weight will seem practically effortless. And it just may, but if the customer feedback is to be believed, BPI Sports Burn XS is very strong, maybe too strong in the end.
BPI Sports Burn XS Benefits
Starting with basic fat burning benefits, BPI Sports Burn XS promises:
- Enhanced fat burning.
- Supported glucose regulation.
- Increased energy for better workouts.
- Boosted metabolism.
Then they go further into the world of nootropics, or brain boosting, by offering:
- Pin-point focus and concentration.
- Enhanced mind/muscle connections.
- Endurance and stamina all day so you accomplish all your goals, not just weight loss.
BPI Sports Burn XS Ingredients
Clearly this can be categorized as a “fat burner plus” kind of product in terms of what it promises. But to see if it delivers, we took a look at the BPI Sports Burn XS formula. It starts with Niacin and Vitamin B6 for increased blood flow and energy. After that, it’s split into two proprietary blends:
T
he Nootropic and NeuroCognitive Blend includes:
- CDP-Choline (1) which increases the amount of the neurotransmitter Acetylcholine for better focus and concentration.
Lycoris Radiata which is an antioxidant that can promote neurocognitive health by preventing the breakdown of acetylcholine. - GABA which supports blood flow to the brain for better clarity.
The Lipotropic Blend contains:
- Caffeine which is a central nervous system stimulant for energy, focus, fat burning, and metabolism.
- Solanum Tuberosum (Potato Extract) which has recently been shown to improve glucose metabolism.
- Cocoa Seed Extract which contains digestive enzymes that help metabolize food into energy.
- Citrus Aurantium (2) (Bitter Orange) which is a stimulant/fat burner that came onto the scene as a replacement for Ephedrine when it got banned.
- Taraxacum Officinale (Dandelion) which is known to act as a diuretic.
- Turmeric Extract which acts as an anti-inflammatory.
- Yohimbine (3) which is another central nervous system stimulant.
How To Use BPI Sports Burn XS
The recommended dose is one capsule taken in the morning on an empty stomach, about 15 minutes before your first meal.

BPI Sports Burn XS Before and After Reviews
There’s lots of customer feedback to sift through, and they mostly stick with the same couple of themes. BPI Sports Burn XS is extremely strong. For some, this is a good thing. For others, it’s too much of a good thing.
Anna says: “By far the best fat burner I have ever tried. The product is strong it does make my face red and slightly burning, but so do some pre-workouts. I take this on a empty stomach and then do my fasted cardio for the day or ill take it mid-day as a pre-workout.”
James says: “Before anything I want to say that this stuff is STRONG, so make sure you use with caution. After a bottle of this stuff I can really say that it is amazing, The mental focus that this product gives me is just insane! The energy is long and keeps you going all day. My recommendation is is you are overly sensitive to it then take it with food and you will be fine.”
On the other hand, JJ says: “What the actual hell!? This stuff is way too strong! Im a supplement veteran and this stuff is making me look like I have a sunburn everywhere! Do not buy this stuff!”
And Catie says: “I took it and within 15 minutes I felt absolutely horrible. I told my boyfriend I didn’t feel good and he told me my face was turning beat red. It was hard to breathe and I legitmately thought I was going to die. This doesn’t seem like a safe fat burner at all and I do NOT recommend that anyone takes this.”
Where to Buy BPI Sports Burn XS
BPI Sports Burn XS is available online or in GNC stores. At the BPI Sports website, a 40 serving bottle costs $42.99, and Bodybuilding.com sells it for $46.99.
BPI Sports Burn XS Pros
- It’s a strong fat burner.
- It provides all day energy.
- It has a nootropic element.
- You only have to take one pill a day.
BPI Sports Burn XS Cons
- There are several reports of side effects. Even people who have overall positive experiences with BPI Sports Burn XS say they get a burning red face after they take it. The combination of 3 cups of coffee worth of caffeine, yohimbe, and citrus aurantium is potentially too much for most people. And the niacin only adds to the likelihood of side effects.
Our BPI Sports Burn XS Conclusion
Whether or not you like the way BPI Sports Burn XS works depends a lot on your body and your perspective. Some users love how strong it is, but ultimately the fact that it causes pretty harsh side effects and may be potentially unsafe makes it impossible to fully recommend.

Q: I drink 2 energy drinks a day so will my high tolerance to caffeine. Would it make it so the caffeine don't bother me as much? I take 240 mg 2 x a day that's more then this product right? And should I discontinue the drinks and just take the product? -Jay
I Just started 8 days ago. so I can take these continuously 40 days (per day one) or should I take rest between?
I guess you could take BPI Sports Burn XS continuously until you stop seeing results. Most supplements are good up to 8 weeks and then a rest period
This was recommended to me at GNC, and I LOVED it. Yes it’s very strong! Fortunately the GNC rep told me to eat breakfast first, and eat a decent breakfast. I was very impressed by the effectiveness! I had to give up drinking coffee because I couldn’t handle the extra caffeine. You have to be careful but they work! Now I’m looking for something similar because my body adjusts so quickly and I need a recommendation for something equally as strong.
I just started taking the BPI sports burn xs. Is it normal to want to throw up with starting to take it? Other than that i feel fine. Just want to throw up. Maybe i should eat a little piece of toast or crackers with it?
Its probably the Yohimbine. Commons side effects of Yohimbine like the one in BPI Sports Burn XS include headaches or nausea. Some people get sick, some people dont. Take a break and try it again. If it happens again, then I doubt there is much you can do about it.
