    I wouldn't believe the reviews. I have yet to hear anyone rave about their success with African Mango... and I have
    spoken in RL with a lot of people who have tried it.

    If anyone has a success story that doesn't involve totally changing your eating and exercise habits, I am listening.

    Tried it last summer, before I came here, on a free trial. The stuff did nothing for me. The company actually told me I was taking it wrong since I did not lose a thing with it. In the fine print they say the results are from the pill, exersize and a calorie reduced diet! So... The pill does very little.

    If Dr Oz pushes it, you can pretty much guarantee it's garbage.

    Some examples of poor advice that Dr. Oz has provided in the past...

    The Media Pigasus Award goes to Dr. Mehmet Oz, who has done such a disservice to his TV viewers by promoting quack medical practices that he is now the first person to win a Pigasus two years in a row. Dr. Oz is a Harvard-educated cardiac physician who, through his syndicated TV show, has promoted faith healing, "energy medicine," and other quack theories that have no scientific basis. Oz has appeared on ABC News to give legitimacy to the claims of Brazilian faith healer “John of God,” who uses old carnival tricks to take money from the seriously ill. He's hosted Ayurvedic guru Yogi Cameron on his show to promote nonsense "tongue examination" as a way of diagnosing health problems. This year, he really went off the deep end. In March 2011, Dr. Oz endorsed "psychic" huckster and past Pigasus winner John Edward, who pretends to talk to dead people. Oz even suggested that bereaved families should visit psychic mediums to receive (faked) messages from their dead relatives as a form of grief counseling.

    It's best to take any advice he has given with a grain of salt. Do your due diligence and investigate other sources for validation of anything that he has said.

    I myself like Dr Oz and think he is a smart Dr, IMP..... I too am thinking of trying these but the ones that were recommended have to have all the ingredients listed.Th African Mango is suppose to have L Carnitine,SLendesta,Green Tea and a Carb Blocker in them,
    at least those are the ones he recommends. The ones on Amazon don't hav eall ofthese things in them as far as i can tell.

    I have not purchased any but have thought about it.

    So this is the latest thing Dr. Oz has been paid to promote huh? When will people stop being so naive and realise he just promotes whatever he is paid to promote?

    I've been on 1050 mg of African Mango for 30 days and have lost 4 pounds. I work out 5 days a week and eat very clean and couldn't get the weight off, I was close to giving up but decided to try the African Mango. I'm so glad I did! It's been great for my digestive issues as well, I'm sold!!

    I called a national health food store, and they have a bottle of liquid African Mango for $17.99. I don't know how potent that is...

    Here's the good.....

    African Mango
    African Mango is a natural ingredient found in many different products. It claims to provide powerful weight loss and other health related benefits. When using African Mango, you find that they make bold promises and claims about everything under the sun.

    African Mango has been well studied over the past 20 years. But it has only recently recognized by the industry as a whole. It is more studied than ephedrine, fen phen, any major prescriptions. But yet we have largely ignored it. So the question is, what does it have to offer considering it was so easily ignored?

    Breakdown
    African Mango claims to thermogenically burn more fat, detoxify the body, suppress appetite, fight belly fat, give you more energy, control leptin, and lower cholesterol with an entirely stimulant free approach.

    When using African Mango, obviously there are quite a few claims made about just how it works. They say that African Mango can help you to lose more weight, burn more fat, and get far beyond the usual. But how much of this is true?

    African Mango is an ingredient that has been through multiple studies. It has been shown to produce a powerful thermogenic fat burning effect while suppressing appetite. It has also been shown to control a hormone called leptin. In fact, it is the only ingredient in the world that has been shown to control this particular hormone.

    When using African Mango, you will find that it only requires 2 doses daily of 150mg. But when you use this amount, it can help you to get amazing and entirely stimulant free weight loss and fat burning results. African Mango has become one of the best products. It has been around. It has simply been ignored.

    Okay, tell me it can wash the dishes, and I am SOLD!!!! What a bunch of malarky. Looked all through this thread and still haven't found anything convincing from anyone that has been on it for a while. If there was a magic pill, we'd all buy it!

    He recommends what he is paid to recommend to his viewers. The man shouldn't be called a doctor most days as he's just pushing pills.

    No self-respecting doctor who isn't in it for the money would spend forever talking about the new "magic pill for weight loss"

    Why not just eat an African mango? Or any mango for that matter.
    I think you can buy them for about a buck or two.
