I’d say 5 stars I take 2 capsules in the morning 30 min before a protein drink .. no hunger or cravings all day around lunch I have a cold pressed juice maybe a small healthy low cal snack as I don’t feel the need to eat anything big (appetite suppressant) by dinner I have a little appetite but only for something small and light .. a salad w protein.. soup.. a small piece of protein w clean steamed or roasted veggies… gives energy.. curbs cravings for bad foods.. I’ve lost 10 lbs since starting (about a month) no late night cravings after much smaller dinner than I’m used to … this product is a win .. no foul flavor or smell actually you burp up raspberry for maybe an hr after taking which is actually pleasant lololol…. Oh an in addition I DO NOT use caffeine at all like ZERO and hate the jitters because it worsens my anxiety and this product DOES NOT give any kind of caffeine feeling or jittery sensation no heart racing no anxious urges so if you deal w this sort of thing it’s kinda perfect
