Lipozene
Lipozene appears to be the magic bullet we’ve all been waiting for. With its 100% money-back guarantee, 30-day risk free trial offer, and bonus bottles available when you buy in bulk, it seems like a deal too good to pass up.
Created by Obesity Research Institute LLC, Lipozene is supposedly a clinically proven diet pill guaranteed to reduce pounds of body fat and weight without changing your lifestyle. Simply pop a pill and away you go!
Yet despite its glowing testimonials and university backing, we can’t help but wonder if there’s more to Lipozene than meets the eye. Is it really the best appetite suppressant on the market? Or is this diet pill luring us into a trap?
Inside Lipozene
Lipozene’s sole identified ingredient is glucomannan, a unique fiber that combines with water to form a gelatinous substance in the stomach. Not only does this increase digestive time, but this zero-calorie ingredient can trick your brain into feeling fuller for longer periods of time, making it easier to lose more weight.
Increasing your fiber intake with glucomannan is a great way to lower your cholesterol and improve your overall digestive health. It can help regulate bowel movements and aid in the elimination of harmful toxins from the body that may be slowing down your metabolism.
Gloucomannan has shown to be effective in clinical studies at a dose of 2-4 grams per day. Lipozene delivers only 1500 mg. This doesn’t mean that Lipozene doesn’t work as an appetite suppressant, it just means it’s not the clinical dose that is recommended.
Potential Side Effects
Ever hear of the phrase, “too much of a good thing”?
While fiber is a safe way to improve your digestive system and provide your body with a long list of health benefits, it’s not without its risks. Too much fiber can result in negative side effects such as constipation, diarrhea, bloating, gas, and intestinal upset.
Many consumers have reported feeling ill while using this product, and it could be a result of too much fiber, or it be caused by undisclosed ingredients inside Lipozene. We recommend exercising a great deal of caution when investing in products such as Lipozene because you don’t know what kind of effect it will have on the body.
It’s all in the marketing
We have been consistent in our other diet pill reviews on hammering autoship practices and other sneaky marketing techniques, and Lipozene is no exception.
We love companies that provide lifetime money-back guarantees on their products, and we strongly encourage that consumers look for products with a 90 day guarantee, such as the one that Lipozene manufacturers offer. While Lipozene manufacturers are fairly adamant on pushing the autoship option, they haven’t tried anything sneaky (so far), making it a little more trustworthy than the products that take your credit card number and run.
If you decide to order Lipozene, make sure that you stick to your guns and avoid getting tangled up in the autoship nightmare.
The Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
Lipozene’s parent company, Obesity Research Institute LLC, used to produce a product called Propolene, which was marketed in a very similar way as Lipozene. Buy-one-get-one-free offers, miracle informercial promises, and high advertising budgets were the staple of the business. It almost seemed like a dream come true, much like Lipozene.
The customer service is what raised the red flags. Propolene appeared often on ripoffreport.com and the FTC required the company to $1.5 Million in Customer Redresses. Although Lipozene is not the same product and it could very well give you great results, we encourage the utmost caution when purchasing from a company with a mottled past.
Final Thoughts on Lipozene
Shady business practices and the low-quantity of Glucomannan cast serious doubt on this product, though you may loose a few pounds after a few months. If you’d like to risk it, be our guest, but there are certainly better deals out there.

Does anyone know where I can get Lipozene for cheap? Everywhere I look it is ridiculously expensive.

About six months ago, I recieved an email about Lipozene. I can lose some pounds and it sounded good so I bought it. The first couple of weeks I was feeling really good about it. I didn’t even exercise the first week and I lost four pounds, the other two weeks I lost two pounds. But after that things started to go down hill. I didn’t lose any more weight and I was working out and eating better than ever. I had bought three bottles and the last two I stayed at about the same level. I don’t know why it stopped working and why i was losing weight at the start but not at the end. If you want to try Lipozene go for it but you probably won’t be missing much if you get something else.

I took Lipozene late in 2008. I really liked it at first especially the first two weeks. I lost 8 pounds but after that everything went down hill. I gained all but two of my pounds back. I guess if there is something positive to say about Lipozene it is that it didn’t make me sick. But the problem was that it didn’t make me feel anything. I probably wouldn’t ever buy Lipozene again. There are better pills out there that i have tried hydroxycut and lipovox to name a few.

I KNEW IT WOULD BE MY LUCK TO CHOOSE THE BAD DIET PILL. SORRY I AM NOT IN A GOOD MOOD RIGHT NOW, MY WIFE LOST HER JOB TWO DAYS AGO AND LIPOZEN DIDN’T HELP. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO LOSE 20 POUNDS I HAVE GAINED FOR TWO YEARS NOW AND I DIDN’T LOSE ANY WITH LIPOZENE I ACTUALLY GAINED TWO BACK.
I GUESS YOU CAN TELL HOW GOOD A WEIGHT LOSS SUPPLEMENT IS WHEN YOU ACTUALLY GAIN WEIGHT WHILE ON IT. I EXERCISED AND EVERYTHING. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND DONT BUY LIPOZENE.

I ‘ve been taking Lipozene for a week and I don’t have any appetite. I drink just liquids and do not eat all day. I don’t feel tired after work and I am in a good mood. I will let you know after a month if I will lose weight.

Before I found this page inre “weight-loss programs” customer reactions, I ordered this regimen hoping their television ad “fills the bill” Whenever I found these dismal reactions I am at a loss to understand how can the FCC and or other outlets make such grandiose success rates I am very hopeful…I am just perplexed that such apositive advertisement can be allowed on Television?

All I can say is if you are not serious about loosing weight nothing will work.
I am 53 and now on sinthroid for my thyroid. Living most of my life thin it was hard when my body packed on 50 extra Lbs. two years ago.
The first month I was on Lipozene I lost 3 pounds per week, 12 pounds the first month. I lost 5 inches around my waist and almost 4 around my hips.
The fat is melting away. I changed my way of eating through this process.
Water and exercise play a big roll. I walk every day and drink 4 bottles of water a day. It works, but you have to work with it. I recomend this product.
If your willing to buy it and try it, you must be willing to change your lifestyle.

lipozene just makes me not want to eat anything and kind of lazy. but i actually have to force myself to eat something during the day, because i just don’t have an appetite.

I tried Lipozene for almost a month and I have gained 6 pounds. If anything, the “full feeling” you are to experience kicked in about two hours after a meal. I would then I would feel so uncomfortable I would have to use a Tums or Pepcid. I have since gone off of the pills and feel so much better. The weight is also coming off. I guess Lipozene had the opposite effect with me.

I have been using lipozene for a ttllie over a week and have lost twelve pounds. I use the pills in combination with a healthy low fat and low carb diet. I exercise 2-3 times a week. You can’t expect any pill to do the work for you. A pill or supplement is merely an aide. Everyone’s body chemistry is different and so results will of course vary but I am satisfied lipozene so far.

Everything is true
Everything you have read concering this product is true, it has not worked, and if you are not careful you could end up with some problems. It is all lies then they want to charge you and won’t take the products back. It is as someone said earlier BULLSHIT, This stuff wih mess up your digestion believe me I know.

Worried
I just bought a two bottle bonus pack of Lipozene from Wal-Mart for $20.00. I am a litte skeptical and concern about using this product just because of all the reviews that I’ve been reading. There has also been several law suits against this product due to serious health issues. I think I’ll return this back and continue working out and eating a healthy low carb diet.
