This is a new Dr. Oz recommendation. I've looked at the studies, which look good. All of the reviews I've read are good. There are no side effects. So, I bought some to supplement my eating/exercise plan to see how it works for me.
Have any of you tried it?

I havent tried it. I do work at GNC though and we have been selling out of the Green Coffee Bean very quickly.
Along with that, Raspberry Ketones have been selling also, its another more natural diet supplement with little to no side effects.0 -

I've heard about the Rasberry Ketones too. But I was really impressed with the studies on the green coffee beans. I'm not one for the latest diet craze. But for some reason, I feel like this might help me alittle!0 -

One of the theories is that it works due it's high chlorogenic acid content, but
Dark roast coffee is more effective than light roast coffee in reducing body weight, and in restoring red blood cell vitamin E and glutathione concentrations in healthy volunteers. Mol Nutr Food Res. 2011 Aug 2. doi: 10.1002/mnfr.201100248
Abstract
Recent results from prospective cohort studies have shown that moderate coffee consumption is associated with a reduced risk for diabetes mellitus type II or Alzheimer's disease. Since reactive oxygen species (ROS) are believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of these diseases, antioxidants in coffee might contribute to this risk reduction. We aimed at elucidating whether a dark roast coffee beverage (CB) rich in N-methylpyridinium ions (NMP: 785 μmol/L) and low in chlorogenic acids (CGA: 523 μmol/L) has stronger antioxidant effects on human erythrocytes than a CB prepared from a light roast with opposite proportions (CGA: 4538 μmol/L; NMP: 56 μmol/L). Following a 2-wk wash out period, 500 mL of the respective CB was administered to 30 subjects daily for 4-wk. Blood and spot urine samples were collected at the beginning and at the end of each intervention. Intake of the dark roast CB most effectively improved the antioxidant status of erythrocytes: superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity decreased by 5.8 and 15%, respectively, whereas tocopherol and total glutathione concentrations increased by 41 and 14%, respectively. Furthermore, administration of the NMP-rich CB led to a significant body weight reduction in pre-obese subjects, whereas the CGA-rich CB did not.0 -

Most likely they won't do much at all. If they are cheap and you want to try them out you could, but I'd prob save my money.0 -
This article takes a critical look at the study cited by Dr. Oz.
http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/index.php/dr-oz-and-green-coffee-beans-more-weight-loss-pseudoscience/
Unfortunately, Dr. Oz seems like a bit of a shill to me. But I guess the same old health/fitness tips that have been around for years don't make for great TV.0 -
why waste $$ on it. There is no quick fix. But I guess if Dr Oz says its great, then gee it must be. I wonder what else he has to sell/promote in his bag of tricks?0
-
Since so many women seem to take every word Dr. Oz says as gospel, it's too bad he won't just advocate what really works - reasonable eating at a deficit and exercising regularly. Only problem is that the supplement companies wouldn't fill his wallet for telling the truth instead of hawking their snake oils. There's no "magic pill", no substitute for dedication and hard work.0

Ok, thanks. I think I need to look into something that will make my workouts more effective. But I already bought the pills, so I'm curious to see what happens. Thanks for your input!!

I don't take anything anybody says as gospel. I've been at the diet and fitness thing for a long time, so I know there isn't a magic pill. But it would be nice to know there is a supplement out there that would boost my weight loss efforts. It's not like I am trying to get out easy. I work out, eat right, etc. My weight loss is slow because (I think) of hormonal issues. I get so frustrated.0 -
