Overview of Alpha Lion Cheetah Burn PM

Alpha Lion was the winner of the Breakout Brand of the Year award from Fitness Informant in 2019 for their expedited growth and product selection. Alpha Lion was able to do this via marketing, of course, but also because they created quality products that people loved, including us here at Fitness Informant. They have recently expanded their online retailing onto BodyBuilding.com. We are looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table in 2020.

Cheetah Burn PM is a fat burner that is engineered to be taken before bedtime. While it does contain a few ingredients that may help accelerate fat loss, it is primarily focused on reducing anxiety and stress levels. If you are looking for the extra boost to help you obtain your fat loss goals, this product might be for you.

Why You Should Trust Our Reviews

  • EXPERT REVIEW PANEL
    Our review panel is made up of individuals with many years of experience in the sports nutrition industry, dating back to the early 2000’s. Their tenure gives them knowledge on brands, supplements, ingredients, dosages and more.
  • FULL CONTAINER REVIEWS
    Unlike the majority of “review” sites on the internet, Fitness Informant reviews every supplement on a full-container basis. What does this mean? It means that a review is not written or recorded until the last serving of that product has been finished. We’ve all had products that were great for the first couple of days, but then lost their effectiveness shortly after. We want to ensure you are getting a full review based on a full product.
  • INGREDIENT EDUCATION
    We breakdown each ingredient in our reviews to educate you on exactly what the ingredients do, and what is the proper dosage of each ingredient to effectively do what they are intended to do.
  • 100% HONEST – NO B.S. REVIEWS
    Our number #1 priority is to inform you proper supplement selection through honest reviews. The majority of “review” sites on the internet will push you to buy a certain product based on the commissions they received. Not us. We want you to purchase the highest quality supplements at the best value. We put your health and wellness first. To achieve your goals we want you to use only the best supplements that you can afford. We do this by being honest.

Testing Results and Ratings

We reviewed Alpha Lion Cheetah Burn PM gains on 3 categories. We first start by looking at its ingredient profile. This portion of the review looks at the different ingredients used in the fat burning supplement, what their intention is and how effectively dosed are each ingredient.

We then look at effectiveness. An effective fat burning product will use high quality, proven ingredients, at clinically backed dosages.  This is generally an extension of the profile section. The higher quality ingredients used at proper dosages, the more effective that fat burner will be.

Finally, we talk about value. Value is the combination of profile and effectiveness in relation to cost. Another part of value are the competitors and other versions of fat burning products on the market.


Ingredients Profile

(8.0/10)

cheetah burn pm

Cheetah Burn PM is a non-stim fat burner that is engineered to be taken at nighttime. It is meant to be paired alongside Alpha Lion’s Cheetah Burn Thermo stimulant fat burner. You can take the thermogenic fat burner during the day, and the PM fat burner before you go to sleep to ensure you achieve the most results.

Cheetah Burn PM starts off with 600mg of KSM-66® (Ashwagandha) which has been shown through research to be effective at raising natural testosterone levels, decreasing cortisol and reducing stress and anxiety. We typically see this ingredient dosed at 600mg for maximum effectiveness and that is exactly what we are getting here. 

GABA is a sedative and anxiety reducer that we also see typically used in night time muscle-building products for its ability to increase growth hormone metabolism. The clinical dose is between 3-5g and we are only getting 500mg here. 5-HTP is a metabolite of L-Tryptophan and is a precursor to serotonin. It is commonly used to improve mood, aid in fat loss, and aid in sleep. We like seeing this ingredient dosed anywhere above 50mg, so we are well above that with the 300mg Alpha Lion is giving us.

Valerian Root Extract is an ingredient that is known for its sedative effects, making it a good option for a fat burning sleep aid. We like seeing this ingredient dosed around 450mg or higher. We are only getting 250mg here. L-Theanine will work to improve cognitive function by producing a calming effect which will improve sleep quality and time to fall asleep. Effects can be noticed by as little as 50mg, and we are getting 200mg here with Cheetah Burn PM.

Finally, we have BioPerine® at 10mg to increase absorptivity and Melatonin at 4mg to aid in getting a quality night of sleep.

Overall, it looks like we have primarily ingredients that are focused on the stress reduction and calming factor to fat loss. It makes this more like a sleep aid product rather than a fat burner. We have some ingredients dosed properly, but others fall short of their clinical dosages.


Effectiveness

(8.3/10)

The formula of this product is geared more towards being a sleep aid than being a fat burner. It does have several ingredients that work to reduce stress, anxiety and cortisol. All of these factors make burning fat more difficult when they are left unsolved. If you maintain control over these stressors then you will see better results in the gym and in the mirror. Cheetah Burn PM is meant to be paired alongside its partner, Cheetah Burn Thermo. The thermogenic product will take care of thermogenesis during the day and allow for recovery and stress reduction at night.

We did notice a better night’s sleep while using this product. We do not typically use any sort of sleep aid, so even the 4mg of melatonin will do some benefit by itself. Some users feel a sort of “melatonin hangover” in the mornings, but I never really felt that with this product. 4mg of melatonin is not a large dose and it is also naturally occurring in the body, so it should be fine for daily use. Overall, we felt more rested in the mornings which is definitely a benefit when you are in a caloric deficit with fat loss goals in mind.


Value

(8.0/10)

Cheetah Burn PM retails for $49 for 30 servings. When using the code “INFORMANT” on the Alpha Lion website, you will receive 15% off, bringing this product down to $1.39 per serving. To further increase the value, Alpha Lion sells their “Cheetah Burn Fat Loss Stack” containing both their Cheetah Burn PM and their Cheetah Burn Thermo (stimulant version – meant to take during the day) for about $83. After using the Fitness Informant discount code, you can snag both of these products together for around $70. 

That is not a bad value for 30 servings of this product, however it does have limited and circumstantial value when looked at from a fat loss point of view. We definitely do see some  benefit in adding this night-time product into your fat loss regiment. While it is not a necessity, it might be the missing piece of the puzzle you need to achieve your goals.
