Life Extension CoffeeGenic, Green Coffee Extract, 400 mg, 90 vcaps

I use this to help suppress my appetite and on that front it works best out of what I've tried, which was multiple other products and fibers. On a day where finding something to eat would be at the forefront of my mind, with this I really only notice if I'm truly hungry. I will say that this helps with the cravings, but if you're like me, you also need to fix bad habits. What that means is if you grab an ice cream at 4PM every day, this won't stop you from doing so because it's a bad habit. If you work to stop the habit, this will help you skip out on the snacking later in the evening.

Maybe it’s just me, but these gave me horrible headaches. Stopped using.

This product tends to work really well for some people and not at all for others. I have to say, this is the only brand that works. The problem is after a while it stops so you have to take breaks from it. I typically take it for a week or two and then take two weeks off because I have been taking it for a long time now, I have figured out that is what works for me. It helps to lower blood pressure for some people. The key to this product working is that you cannot take it when you have any milk protein in your stomach. Milk protein can be hidden in surprising products so you may not know you have consumed it, and it will bind with this product (or other medications and supplements) and cause it to not have the intended effect. For me, it curbs my appetite hugely allowing me to make good food choices. I love the non-jittery energy I get from it but I am not a regular caffeine user so that may be why I can feel it. I would take this every day of my life if the effects didn't wear off and I needed to have a break from it. In any case it is well worth the gamble if you want to give it a try, just take it on an empty stomach without any milk protein (google milk protein, there a re a lot of different names for it like casein, etc.) I take 2 in the morning and sometimes 1 in the afternoon.

I'm nit quite sure about it's fat burning properties. But it hasn't given me any unpleasant side effects, including no caffeine reactions. I tried add 2 capsules to a coffee Jello, & it has a definite bitter flavor. Best to just stick with a light roast for that. I can see why it's put into capsules.

My diabetic husband is impressed with this product. He takes it after a meal. But does not take it when he takes metformin. Does not want to combine them. But it is making a difference in his diabetic numbers.
