Akavar™-20/50 is a popular supplement that claims to help with weight loss. However, because it has not been adequately studied, it is not known if Akavar is indeed effective for this use. Akavar products contain caffeine, which may help to suppress the appetite and possibly boost metabolism. Possible side effects include a rapid heart rate, insomnia, and nervousness.
