Anyone tried it? What was your experience with it? For those you havent tried it, What are your thoughts on it?

    It's snake oil. Don't buy it because it won't do a damn thing.

    Considering its a fruit native to Indonesia I doubt many will have tried it in its true form. If you are referring to the capsule form, scientific studies found that it has none of the weight loss qualities that manufactures attribute to it.

    It was Dr Oz's biggest money spinner a few years back. He made lots of money. Others lost lots of money. That's pretty much all they lost.

    I tried it years ago because I saw it on Dr. Oz. It didn't do ANYTHING for me. Save your money, have portion control and log what you eat.

    Also if you're on psych meds this can react VERY badly with them. I did some research bc a friend was taking it and i was worried about her. My fears were valid.

    Waste of money. And, to cut to the chase, the only thing that causes weight is a calorie deficit.

    Tried it.. Waste of money and time. It was just as useless as:

    Green coffee bean extract
    Green tea
    Raspberry ketones

    and other over the counter "weight loss pills and potions" that i can't remember the names of anymore.

    Yeah I got sacked in by it, fortunately I only wasted my money, some people suffered far more.
