Korrean ginseng

Options
curious if anyone's used korrean ginseng capsuls before and the result? My brother in law reccomended them to help me lose weight as I've tried almost everything else. Anyone's opinions? Thinking it couldn't hurt as long I continue trying to excersize and eat healthier

    Seconding. Calorie deficits are free. Save your money and buy a food scale instead.

    Why don't you try a calorie deficit?

    Even if it does work (which it won't), you won't learn anything that you need in order to maintain that weight loss once you've achieved it.

    As above, calorie deficits are free. Save your money.

    If you could buy a weight-loss cure, Oprah wouldn't be overweight.

    These two responses hit the nail on the head.

    Eating more than you need is the issue, not buying something to counter it.

    Have you tried eating at a deficit and exercising?

    Stop trying stuff

    There is no magical cure out there, so get rid of every dieting tip you've ever heard or read

    Eat fewer calories than you burn and keep doing it every single week
