Ok, so Mangosteen Rind aka Garcinia Cambogia is being pimped on the Dr. Oz show. It's supposed to act as an appetite suppressant. any thoughts or opinions on it? has anyone tried it?
Cheers! :drinker:

    Thoughts: Dr Oz.



    Stop there and change channel. There is nothing to see or think about.

    Consistent in results with most products Dr. Oz promotes.

    CONCLUSIONS:

    Garcinia cambogia failed to produce significant weight loss and fat mass loss beyond that observed with placebo.
