raspberry ketone

What is everyone thoughts on Raspberry Ketone? I saw it on Dr.Oz and I'm not one to take pills for anything, not even for headaches. Just curious on what everyones thoughts were on it. Or if anyone has used it I'd love feedback!

    I'll give you the nice answer first:

    It's a scam. If it worked, there'd not be a fat person in America (and they wouldn't be charging anything less than 10 grand for a 30 day supply.) You'll notice the bottle says "with diet and exercise" - that tells you what will be doing the work. (And it ain't the pill.)

    Here's the not so nice answer:

    I saw it on Dr.Oz

    He's a sham, and so are the magic cures he shills. Eat a calorie deficit and move. Yes, it really is that simple.

    It's delicious. I sprinkle it on my ice cream now and then.

    I love raspberries. Haggen Daas Raspberry Sorbet is to die for! Not sure why you have to take them in pill form. They taste good enough to eat without drying them and putting them into a pill.

    The sad part is Dr. Oz is an absolutely brilliant heart surgeon. He just spends most of his time being the mouthpiece for snake oil.

    I hate to admit it, but earlier this year I tried Raspberry Ketones for 3 weeks. All I got was really jittery and paranoid. I ceremoniously threw them into a public garbage can.

    Now I am trying to do it the right way - 1-2 lbs per month. Reading everything I can here

    Beat me to it! :drinker:

    Mostly they just make your wallet thinner. Skip it, use MFP, it's free and it works. :smile:
