I am wondering the same thing. I saw this on the Dr. Oz show,but I am not sure if I want to try it.

I have taken them and I feel like they are not necessarily good for losing weight but good for not gaining weight when you are going to eat something of track -- because supposedly it helps your body metabolize excess carbs instead of storing. I will take them when I'm going out for drinks usually, sometimes when I go out to dinner or during the holidays. I have taken them 3x/day 30mins before meals and ate prettymuch whatever I wanted for like a month and I didn't gain...

Dont take it for extended periods of time, kind of like every other supp out there. Just cycle on and off 4-6 weeks at a time i wouldnt do more than 8 weeks at once

SIDE EFFECTS: Garcinia is POSSIBLY SAFE for most people when used for 12 weeks or less. Long-term safety is unknown. Garcinia can cause nausea, digestive tract discomfort, and headache.

GARCINIA Uses & Effectiveness

Possibly Ineffective for:

Weight loss. Taking garcinia fruit rind extract doesn't seem to decrease weight, fat breakdown, or energy expenditure in overweight people. There is some mixed evidence that garcinia might help people feel full even when eating less, but it's too early to recommend garcinia for this use.


Insufficient Evidence for:

Treating worms and parasites.
Emptying the bowel.
Severe diarrhea (dysentery).
Other conditions.

More evidence is needed to rate the effectiveness of garcinia for these uses.

I'd say no. I wouldn't take it that's for sure.
