Just tried a scoop of Valentus this morning. I must say it gave me a lot of energy. So far so good. No bad side effects yet lol
. Anyone else use this with success?

It's a scam product distributed by a pyramid scheme (MLM) company. You helped a company that destroys lives, and all you got was over priced coffee with extra, possibly harmful ingredients.
Want the same effect? Get a Starbucks and eat a balanced diet. Then, smile because you saved money and didn’t buy into a pyramid scheme.

There are no products with any actual proof that they cause "fat burning" (that is a really common diet industry scam unfortunately). And unless your kidneys and liver have stopped working, you don't need a detox (and if they did stop working, you'd need a doctor).

So it's basically just expensive coffee with extra caffeine. Sorry11 -

That is good! But I still wouldn't drink it. It's not helping you any more than a strong cup of cheap coffee would and some of that extra crap in it might cause damage.3 -
