Carborid Review
Carborid they claim reduces fat production in relation to carbohydrate intake. They promise that even those on a low carb diet can consume many hidden carbohydrates, and they can help you to achieve greater success, all without yeast, chemical additives, or artificial dyes. No side effects have been reported with Carborid. But then again, that is a constant reality with products only meant to block the body from processing a certain amount of your carbohydrate intake. Meant to block carbs from your diet helping you lose weight without worrying about your carb intake, it puts all your money in one basket to help you lose weight.
Price: $29.95/bottle
Ingredients and Mechanism of Action
Carborid ingredients include chromium picolinate, phaseolamin, fenugreek, gymnema sylvestre, green tea, galangal rhizome extract, cinnamon twig extract, banaba leaf extract, and vanadium.
We see one commonly used carb blocker. The rest have no application to weight loss or they are found in such small amounts as to be completely inconsequential. And the one carb blocker, phaseolus vulgaris, requires at least 1000mg for that kind of effect. They use 500mg. Their only other promise in promoting weight loss is green tea, which causes caffeine related weight loss. But they stuff it into a proprietary blend containing all of 200mg total, when you need at least 400mg green tea to promote weight loss.

Overall Impression of Carborid:
Carborid is really just another product claiming to be something it's not. They use one novelty ingredient that is supposed to block carb absorption by the body. However, their use of Phaselus Vulgaris requires much more to have the effect that is promised by Carborid. Instead, they use only half the required amount. This essentially means that you are not going to get the full results you are looking for. So, if you are relying on Carborid to help you lose weight, you may have completely different results.
