I didn't know that this was a function of the product. I take it to keep my blood sugar at an acceptable level and balanced.

I purchased the Navitas brand of coconut sugar, and its just that, coconut palm sugar. I really like it. I can tell that it has a lower GI. I don't eat much sugar at all, and when I bake I either use coconut sugar or honey plus a mix of high fiber flour from King Aurther. And eaten in moderation, I don't really get that skin crawling feeling that I would get with regular sugar products. Also my weight is good.

I took the Raspberry Ketones for a week and then didn't for two days and I'm back on it again. What I have noticed is a change to my hunger or cravings. I'm not starving by 4pm and I'm not trying to find something to snack on in the evenings so for me I think it's working. It's not a magic pill and I don't think it will help me lose any weight if I don't try and watch my calorie intake, and exercise but it's nice not to feel like I'm starving and it's also nice to have some help with my self-control.

Hi Linda.... I only took this product for about a week. I didn't notice feeling any less hungry. I actually felt like I was more hungry. Different products work different on different people. It may work for you. Good luck !

I just wanted to point out that the only reason I saw your question is because I was back to order more! I know there's lots of bogus reviews, but I really use it! Also I eat very clean. No more than 20 grams of sugar per day and under about 100 grams of carbs a day! Tough but possible!

I guess it should work, to me raw sugar seems a bit sweeter than white. just try it and see what happens.

I really don't know. I have heard that being too acidic causes sugar craves, so it would seem reasonable, but I haven't used it for that purpose.

Hi Dionne. I am not a chemist and don't know how it works. My guess is, based on my current experience, that it seems to be functioning as an appetite suppressant. Weight loss is all about calories in versus calories out. Some of us seem to have cravings or impulses for certain foods that get totally out of control. I experience that all the time, but this supplement seems to be counter-acting that. Best wishes.

Not sure about the sugar content but I do know it has been a beneficial product for me and I would not let the sugar content put me off.

The only change I've made is the brand of garcinia I'm using. I had 30 lbs.. of successes with my diet and exercise program. We are talking about apatite and sugar craving control that I don't get with this brand that I did get with a brand that had an even lesser amount of the herb than this brand claims. I won't waste my money on this product again. Did you actually read my first review? I was pretty specific.

I was diagnosed having OA more than 10 years ago.By using this product regularly, I am have managed to remain just fine, I walk, go on tread mill and do what ever I want with my knees. I am not diabetic, but I wanted to avoid adding sugar to my body. They used to add sugar to make it sweet and palatable. I was thrilled to read that they have sugar free product. That was a very wise decision because most people who have OA are elderly and quite of them diabetic- a product with out sugar is the best solution. This is a great product. Just don't be over concerned about the claim and and want this the best product. Vikram Tyagi

I use a lot of organic coconut palm sugar...I have lost 15 pounds going off white sugar...I used this in the beginning..and then went to buying 5# Bags from our local Quail cove farm...If I do not stir it well there are little floaters...But the benifits of this products with minerals and vitamins and less fat and calories, perk the taste test for me...I also use a coconut milk to sweeten and I am now using body lab to lose weight and using Silk Coconut unsweetened milk...and have lost more weight..My blood Pressure is down and my doctor is Happy with the weight loss, remarking several times about the change in me....STICK WITH THIS..or any other Brand...the better the product the more intense the flavor...I also buy the pre filled packets to take in my purse for when I buy coffee out! There are certain brands of this for cooking, and certain brands of it for Quick dissolving..if you purchase in the 5 pound bag, it hardens quickly, so you may want too purchase an air tight container...it will last you months if you only use it for coffee and save money in the long run...I paid 25.00 for 5 pounds..or there about...

It Regulates Blood Sugar, helps curb sugar cravings and is safe but, it is an extra added ingredient found in most of these formulas, (Dr. Oz only recommended Potassium & Calcium for better absorption)

I used it in a cookie recipe today, and it worked fine. I used 1/8 tsp. stevia plus 1/4 cup xylitol to sweeten cookies made with 2 cups of almond flour. The sweetness was perfect for my taste.

If you check the labels on Splenda or Equal or other Stevia brands you'll find that all the good-tasting artificial sweeteners include a tiny amount of sugar in some form or another. You avoid much larger intake of sugar using these sweeteners over sugar or honey, but it doesn't drop down to 0.I have no problem with that.

Earthwell brand worked best for me. Yet I have not tried any of the others. I averaged two pounds per week. Felt good all day no racing pluse. The product allowed me to stick to my protein diet without snack cravings. For me I acquired a sweet and salty craving, with this product I just don't have that anymore. Also my excerise program consist of 30 min daily on the treadmill.

You won't taste a lot of the sugar at all.in fact, Herbalife has less sugar, but tastes way sweeter.I find the concentration of powder too high, so I dilute it a bit (add 5-6oz of water per serving)
