Lipozene Review

“Clinically proven to reduce body fat,” Lipozene claims to reduce weight, reduce body fat, and do it without negative side effects. It was created by Obesity Research Institute LLC, and it offers weight loss without the work. They sell largely through infomercials. The main ingredient is glucomannan, which has been shown to aid weight loss by creating a feeling of fullness in the right doses.

Ingredients and Mechanism of Action

Glucomannan, the main and seemingly only ingredient included in LIpozene is a soluble fiber undigestible in the human body. As such, it absorbs water, and when taken in doses of 1 gram with 8 ounces of water 3 times a day, it can promote feelings of fullness and therefore reduced caloric intake for most individuals. Over an 8 week period of time, the average user of glucomannan lost about 5.5 pounds without any negative side effects.

Marketing Strategy and Warnings

Lipozene’s main method of advertising is through infomercials, which basically screams scam. We all get pulled into infomercials, but they are the method used by shady retailers, because it requires them to provide the smallest level of accountability to their customer base. Second, they provide no ingredients list. They say they use glucomannan, and they claim each pill contains 1500mg. But they provide no complete ingredient list(ie active an inactive ingredients, etc)to prove it.

They also claim to offer a free bottle after the purchase of a first bottle and a 30 day money back guarantee. A free trial offer first of all indicates to me that they are vastly overcharging for a worthless product. The second thing it indicates is that they are going to sign you up for a difficult to cancel autoship program with or without your knowledge. A money back guarantee is nice, but if you have ever tried other diet products, 30 days is not a descent amount of time. They also require that you call them to get a return authorization number before making any returns, most likely so they can tell you all the reasons why it wouldn’t be in your best interest to try to return the product in the first place.

Overall Impressions of Lipozene

Would I buy Lipozene. Definitely not. They provide no accountability to their consumer base, and there is no reason to think they can back up the claims they have made about their product.

Lipozene was alotta waste of money. I am a mother of 3 and very busy and I ordered it because I was blue when I was getting asked when my baby was due 3 months after he was born. But it did nothing, I was still always hungry and at Times I thought it seemed like I was more hungry then before taking the pills? I did not lose a single pound on that stupid pill and lost alot of money I really couldn’t afford to be wasting. But I guess I learned my lesson, and that is there is no magic pill!!!

i used lipozene and for sometime, i thought it was the best out there. I mean I lost weight but it was so little that it was negligible. at least it worked i thought. at the time, it was the only weight loss drug that had worked, even though it didn't give me the desired effect. I felt I didn't get the value for my money.

Name: Mildred

i have tried it for about 2 months and have noticed no results yet, no bad results either.
