Is anyone taking any supplements to help them lose weight? If so, what are you using and are they working?

    I don't take anything to help me lose weight, but I take a general multi-vitamin as well as 6,000mg Flaxseed Oil and 6,000mg Omega 3 Fish Oil daily. All are good to take for regular health.

    Hi. I would suggest to talk to your physician before taking certain supplements for weight loss. Certain illness can be aggravated or become worse if if your taking these supplements.

    B12 for metabolism, a green tea extract pill for energy that helps burn fat (right before exercising), and an acai berry supplement instead of the 100 calorie juice option (taken when I eat) to suppress hunger urges, all that good stuff. None of the pills I take promise to make my fat vanish but they help me little at a time.

    That and I drink a detox tea with my green tea (replaced coffee with tea) every now and then, just helps cleans your system and tastes pretty good mixed with the pomegranate green tea.
