Has anyone tried it? I've been taking it for a week now, before breakfast, and noticed that I really don't feel as hungry...but I'm not sure if it's my imagination!

    you probably don't feel hungry because you are drinking a liquid "tea" which makes you feel full; same affect as drinking a glass of water when hungry and feeling full….

    nothing magical about green tea.

    it's actually not a liquid, it's a pill

    Another Dr Oz mentioned product that he admits doesn't pass scientific muster.

    If its helping you out keep on it, being a pill still has an appetite suppressing effect, same as drinking a cup of coffee or glass or of water

    There's no proven science behind green tea extract and appetite.
