it seems to be that i have built up a tolerence for the main ingredient in phen, hydrochloride. does anyone know of any home remedies that i can do to deminish the ingredient from my system or maybe there has been a post previously and could direct me to the thread.
any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!!
thanks ALL

I have 2 suggestions ... the first is if you take phen everyday try to skip a day. I experienced the same tolerance issue and stopped taking it on the weekends. The second suggestion is to drink a LOT of water. I try and drink 2 liters every day.

I don't know if there is any 'evidence' to support either of these claims, but they worked for me. Hope this helps.

Someone mentioned lemon juice on another thread.

i thought the lemon juice was to enhance the phen, not to diminish it, but i could be wrong.

i looked up about the lemon juice and you were right deborah, lemon juice is to help remove the tolerence! Thank you for your help, sorry for the confusion

ive been doing the lemon juice-in-the-water thing, and i think it helps! for me, it also helps me to drink more water...cuz plain ol water can get kinda boring after so long, ya know...so now, i won't drink water any other way...i buy the big bottle of Real Lemon Juice, keep 1 at home AND 1 at work, in the fridge, and add some every time i refill my water

wait a minute...does the lemon juice actually do anything, or just make the large amounts of water more tolerable? crystal light is a delicious no-calorie addition to water. i love it. i sound like a commercial.
