Why diuretics? Water loss via a thermogenic seems like a cheap trick.

I assume that most everybody who takes a thermogenic is trying to cut fat. Not just lose pounds. Unless they are a pro boxer or something.

So why put diuretics in a thermogenic stack? Is that just a marketing thing done by the companies who make them? I guess if people don't know any better they'll think 'wow I lost 5 pounds in 2 days!' In reality the thermogenic is just making them pee more.

The reason I ask is that I'm about to take Animal Cuts. It's a multi-pill thermogenic and you can remove the diuretic pill. Why on earth would I take a diuretic?

Also, I'm starting creatine, which causes you to retain water. So, again, why in the world should I take a diuretic? Am I missing something?

Any advice is appreciated!!

Absolutely. Then you can have testimonials for marketing that sound great, when in reality the product does far less, or in many cases, nothing.

I'm going to take the thermogenic, but I'm going to pick out the diuretic pill. It's just bizarre to me.
