    There is not one scientifically proven reason to take them. I mean this in the most helpful way possible, don't waste your money. A simple calorie deficit will work.

    Only on the radar because Quack Oz started promoting. No data to back up it's effectiveness at all.

    The most helpful comments you're going to get on this thread are "No." As in, no don't do it, no don't waste your money, no don't waste your time, no there isn't a pill that's going to make you lose weight, and no these have absolutely no scientific backing.

    If there was a pill that allowed people to eat Big Macs and lose weight, there'd not be a fat person left in America.

    no evidence to support it works.

    And I'll sum up the general MFP response for you:

    I'm ashamed to admit I tried these on a friends recommendation. All they did for me was make my burps taste like raspberries and make my wallet lighter. Save your money.

    They work with a reasonable calorie deficit and exercise, but if you take the ketones out of the equation you get the same result.

    Don't waste your money.

    I wish they came in other flavors. I don't really like Raspberries. Why can't they come up with Scotch ketones?

    They don't come in other flavours and certainly not scotch! But you can mix them in your scotch as long as the alcohol doesn't take away from the raspberry ketones fat burning aroma:)

    Maybe if they were served on top of vanilla ice cream and drizzled with Scotch. You think that would still melt the fat off?

    Let me guess. You're the type that also puts raisins in cookies and laughs at the poor kids who think they're getting chocolate chips, right? eVil!

    OP: Seriously. Please do not take the ketones. They aren't necessary and will not help you. Eat at a reasonable calorie deficit, move more than you did before, and be patient. That's really all it takes and you will succeed.

    Raisins are nature's candy.

    Don't waste your money. I tried them and found that I didn't have a tolerance to them. Not long after taking them I found I was burping a lot and felt uncomfortable. Hope this helps!

    I tried them and didn't notice any difference. It was a waste of money in my opinion

    I wouldn't mind raspberry burps! Better than garlic! However, I would just rather eat raspberries to get them.

    Raspberry burps would be way better than fish oil!
