if they worked everyone would just take them and be skinny. anything that works is not legal and anything that is legal does not work.

Don't waste your money. If it's legal, it doesn't work and if it works, it isn't legal. The way to burn fat is a good old calorie deficit. There are no shortcuts.

They make your wallet lighter.

Most (legal) fat burners contain caffeine or an herbal component that gets your heart rate up or gives you some quick energy. It makes you feel like it's doing something. It's not.

If you're using them as stimulants they're okay I guess, I've had grenades in the last and I did find them helpful, but for actual fat loss, it's all nutrition and exercise.

They’re a gimmick. Just a marketing ploy to get you to spend money.

You mean Keto Melt isn't going to make me instantly thin? But, but, Shark Tank...

This. Seriously.

Although there are like 3 caveats. Multivitamins are worth taking because you're not always going to hit all your micronutrients, and joint support stuff actually does work. Pre-workout DOES give you energy but it's also not that great for you and an XL black coffee would do similar and is healthier.

Other than that...don't waste your money

If they work they're dangerous and illegal, if they're safe and legal they don't work.
