All their fat loss products do different things as far as fat loss is concerned.
Syntheselen - will speed your metabolism, so you burn fat quicker. It realistically works like a mild anabolic like Primo, etc.
Synthetine - it's the only carrier for fat accross the mitochondria to get burned. It doesn't burn any fat by itself, but it's the limiting factor in how much fat you burn - no matter how many fat burners you take, you will only burn as much as it's being carried across to get burned, so loading up on Synthetine is a good idea.
SyntheBURN - thermogenic fat burner. Super duper ECA stacker. It simply burns fat, nothing else to say.
SyntheBLOCKplus - blocks carbs and fats from a meal when you take it with a meal. Perfect example - 3 slices of dry toast is a diet meal, providing about 100g of carbs. If you add butter and jam to the toast, it's not a diet meal anymore. You take SyntheBLOCKplus with that, the capsules will block enough carbs and fats that are found in the butter and jam. So, it makes a 'bad' meal into a diet meal. So, you lose fat that way.
SyntheBLOCKplus is for people that are already dieting, and they have some craving, or their meals are just on the other side of a bad meal (ie toast with jam and butter). SyntheBLOCKplus helps them be on a diet.
If you want to cheat your diet with a Big Mac though, you'll probably have to take the whole bottle of it with the burger :)
SyntheDEXTRIN - it's a complex carbohydrate, with a very long structure, as such making it pretty much the last carb to be converted into fat. So, if you replace all your carb sources in your diet with maltodextrin, you will still have the energy that you get from carbs, but you will lose fat, as maltodextrin is the 'best' carb out there while all other carbs will more redily turn into fat, than it will.
SynthePURE - pure whey protein isolate. Obviously, you replace a meal with a plain whey isolate shake, you will be losing fat, as SynthePURE it's just pure protein - per 100g of powder you get 96.4g of protein, 0.3g of fat and 0.8g of carbs. No meal will beat that.
All the above are products that affect fat loss in some way.
