After lucking upon info about pinolenic acid (thank you Health Ranger Mike Adams!), I did a good bit of research on it. I'd read that PA can work to suppress appetite, and I know from having lost 30-40 pounds four years ago that what I needed more than anything was an appetite suppressant. Some of that weight came back (I have hypothyroidism), so I had to find a way to take care of it, because, as we all know, it really is unhealthy to carry around even 20 lbs. of extra weight, not to mention demoralizing. I have, so far, found this product to be quite effective at either eliminating my appetite or at curtailing my eating when I *do* decide to eat.
I take one early in the morning, and have no appetite until noon. I take 1-2 more later in the day, and once again it knocks my appetite right out, to the point that I forget to eat until later. When I do eat, I get full quickly and don't really desire bad food. I do drink lots of water, though, but I have always done that. I also eat far fewer carbs, a lot of vegetables, lean meat, and no sugar...So, right now, I am eating really healthy stuff and don't feel deprived at all. I just pray that this continues...I honestly don't even think about food that much.
One more product that knocks out my appetite and perks me right up is Alive! Whole Foods Energizer supplement (in the little packets that you stir into water) by Nature's Way. I don't know if it's the massive B vitamins in that product or the spirulina, but that stuff is genius when it comes to making me feel better and controlling my appetite.
So, both of these products seem to be helping me. But I started taking pinolenic acid two weeks after I had begun taking the Alive! supplements, and I am finding it to be the most effective of all.
I am writing this review to help others, since I was unable to find many reviews by real people when I started my research. I wouldn't tell you the above if it weren't true...I am in no way associated with any of these companies; I would just like others to find appetite control help the way I did. Best of luck to all of you who read this. :-) |
It works!

I've tried hoodia and other things, but this stuff works, and I haven't had to take the recommended dose - which is 3 capsules each time you take it. I take one in the morning with my coffee and bagel, and that lasts me through the day - I eat normally, and then I take one in the late evening because I have problems with late evening eating. Now I'm getting through that time period just not feeling the desire to eat. For me it's more of an emotional pattern in the evening, than an actual hunger.
I haven't noticed any adverse effects, so for me this has been a good product. I'm hopeful I'll start to see some results, and with healthy
nutrition and daily exercise, I'll get in better shape and feel healthier. |
Oh my gosh - it really works (for me anyway)

| One is wise to take any Diet pill review with a grain of salt. Hoodia didn't do a thing for me, so despite all the good studies & "alleged" reviews for Korean Pine nut oil, I decided to try this stuff out and see for myself. Taken as directed, it actually takes my hunger away. Emotional binge eating, and nightime TV snacking are huge issues that have escaped my control. Until now. Honestly, these things DO give me the satiety that allows an empty handed trip BACK from the fridge :-) May not work for you, but sure does for me. |
No perceivable effect

| I see no perceivable effect. Pine oil is apparently great for reducing blood pressure, maybe that's will end up being utility of the pills. |
Did not work!

| I took these for about 2 weeks and felt absolutely no change in my appetite. Didn't lose a pound! |
