SKINNY FIBER....Negatives?

I have read for days about the positives of this pill & have yet to come across anything negative.
Anyone have a negative experience? Side effects? etc?

Im seriously considering this product (Just to try, not long term) BUT being the type of person I am, I dont take anything without ALL the facts. I wont even take vitamins cause Im scared of future side effects not discovered yet

Well then don't take these. Anything that says "proprietory blend" means they really don't have a dosage limit and that usually a 3rd party manufacturer made it. 3rd party manufacturers usually use low grade raw material (a lot from China) and that usually means low/no regulation from imported country.

I agree, she did not ask what to do or what not to do, she simply asked about the product which I was also curious about. In the few responses that actually addressed it, it work for some and the one person it did not.

Do you take skinny fiber?

I am very interested it in it and I will be ordering it. I will come back to give an update of it. Right now I try my best to eat healthy and I exercise 3 (soon to be 4) times a week. I tried the green coffee bean as well and it helped me lose approx. 25 lbs. I stopped taking that a couple of months ago. I reached a plateau and now I would like to try SF. Updates soon to come....

skinny fiber is not just fiber it also contains pre-digestive enzymes that your body needs, however nature intended that we get most of the enzymes that we need from food but when we cook them to the recommended temperatures we destroy the enzymes so yes it does help with digestive problems. What nature intended is that you eat enzyme rich foods and chew your food properly. If you did that, the food would enter the stomach laced with digestive enzymes. These enzymes would then "predigest" your food for about an hour -- actually breaking down as much as 75% of your meal.

Only after this period of "pre-digestion" are hydrochloric acid and pepsin introduced. The acid inactivates all of the food-based enzymes, but begins its own function of breaking down what is left of the meal in combination with the acid energized enzyme pepsin. Eventually, this nutrient-rich food concentrate moves on into the small intestine. Once this concentrate enters the small intestine, the acid is neutralized and the pancreas reintroduces digestive enzymes to the process. As digestion is completed, nutrients are passed through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream.

That's what nature intended. Unfortunately, most of us don't live our lives as nature intended!

Processing and cooking destroy enzymes in food. (Any sustained heat of approximately 1180 - 1290 F destroys virtually all enzymes.) This means that, for most of us, the food entering our stomach is severely enzyme deficient. The food then sits there for an hour, like a heavy lump, with very little pre-digestion taking place. This forces the body to produce large amounts of stomach acid in an attempt to overcompensate. In addition to failing in this attempt (much of the meal still enters the small intestine largely undigested), there are two major consequences.

Too much stomach acid.
Too little stomach acid.

I have been taking skinny fiber for 3 weeks,I feel sick when I take it constipated and no weight loss,just £39 lighter on my pocket,as far as more energy goes I have never been so tired and the reason people push it on the Internet is because its part of a pyramid scheme.....just my opinion of it and I am not a seller

Lol! I'm taking everything I can manage, and so far have only been hypervitaminosis poisoned once-on purpose. I took about 200 000X daily intake of vitamin C, all I got was more bathroom trips.
But in all seriousness if you're looking for fibre, best to get some psyllium husk or something you can control the quantity. Your body WILL become accustomed to high amounts of fibre. Believe me, I went raw for a year.

I know you want to hear from someone that's taken it. I haven't though. But I looked over the sight and it reminded me of the "Green Coffee Bean Extract" thing......It cleans out your colon......If people don't eat right, well yeah, they will lose weight. Their colon is carrying around all kinds of junk! If pills made people skinny, we'd all be skinny I guess. But a clean colon is probably a better colon but there's cheaper ways to clean out your system.

No they didn't. She didn't ask for preaching or advice..just about results of who ever has tried it. Can no one read now a days?

I've taken it for a month. I have not lost any weight whatsoever. I have followed the directions and have had all the water they tell you to drink. Thats one negative. I was hoping for weight loss of course, but also for all the other benefits it claims, like relief from fibromyalgia, blood sugar regulation, etc. So far, none of that has occurred.

I have broken out in a rash in the last few days, not sure what it is from, but Skinny fiber is the only new thing I have ingested so I am wondering if it could be from that. It could also be an environmental allergy so I really don't know and can't say its from Skinny Fiber.

On the positive side, I do feel that it has stopped my cravings for sweets after supper and I feel full faster, although of course that could just be from drinking all that water. I'm upset that I haven't lost anything but I did have a back injury this month which stopped me from exercising regularly so perhaps when I can get out there again it will start coming off. I bought 3 bottles so I plan on taking them all (unless the rash gets worse) and will post again when that is done.
