Has anybody tried it for weight loss? If so, what do you think? Any success? Any side effects?

It is one of Dr. Oz's weight loss miracles. It is suppose to help with appetite control...most reviews I have read are not very favorable.

The things I read about it have to do with the percentage of this fruit that is contained in the supplements. There are only two companies that actually HAVE the right percentages. Unfortunately, supplements like this are not regulated by the food and drug admin. No one actually knows the conditions under which these things are manufactured for consumption. The same goes for vitamins, though at least certain companies have established themselves as reputable when it comes to vites. Often with some of the herbs and other supplements, there are trace elements of lead and other harmful ingredients, plus other things that interact badly with certain prescriptions.
