Raspberry Ketones Enter the Weight-Loss Arena
Raspberry Ketones Enter the Weight-Loss Arena
Raspberry ketones can give you an extra boost that supports shedding unwanted poundsRaspberry ketones, members of a group of nutrients called polyphenols, have been used for years to flavor soft drinks, pudding, ice cream, and other sweet treats. A bit ironic, since the latest buzz about raspberry ketones is that they aid weight loss. According to supplement manufacturers, along with a healthy diet, raspberry ketones can give you an extra boost that supports shedding unwanted pounds.Boost your healthy living efforts
Based on early research in mice, some researchers speculate that raspberry ketones may increase the body's production of a substance called adiponectin. Adiponectin is produced by fat cells-when in balance, it regulates appetite and ensures that calories are metabolized properly rather than being stored as fat.
According to Lee Labrada, author, founder of the Labrada Nutrition supplement company, and a former body builder and Mr. Olympia competitor with 22 major titles to his name, raspberry ketones should be thought of as a complement-not a replacement-to regular exercise and healthy eating.
Director and Founder of the Institute for Healthy Aging Mark Rosenberg , MD, concurs. "Losing fat is a tricky, and often frustrating, process. No magic bullets can counter poor eating or exercise habits. However, raspberry ketones may help someone get back on track with weight loss-efforts," states Rosenberg.
Pay attention to the details
Celebrity trainers and weight-loss gurus promote raspberry ketones as 100% safe, and they do have GRAS-generally recognized as safe-status from the United States Food and Drug Administration. However, this is based on the small amounts used to flavor foods; the doses in supplements tend to be much higher. Supplements typically provide around 100 mg of raspberry ketones. For comparison, a pound of raspberries yields about 1 mg of ketones.
The jury is still out on whether larger doses of raspberry ketones are safe for everyone, and some health experts believe they derive certain fat-burning properties through action on a hormone called norepinephrine. Norepinephrine is a key player in the "fight or flight" response. When the body produces it in response to stressful situations, the heart pumps harder and blood pressure increases.
This may not be a problem for otherwise healthy people who use raspberry ketones as directed by the manufacturer, but it could pose a danger for those with underlying health conditions. If you have a pre-existing medical condition, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or heart disease, check with your doctor before trying raspberry ketone supplements. Also keep in mind that raspberry ketones shouldn't be confused with red raspberry leaf, a different dietary supplement.

Comments about SUNNY ISLAND Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Raspberry Ketones™:
I lost 60 pounds on WW and needed a boost to help with the last 20. The holidays set me back by 10 pounds and I did my research and decided to try this. I am pleased to say that after taking 3 per day for 4 days I have lost 4 pounds. It def curbs your hunger. No jitters and no side effects that I can tell as of yet. How many times have we had to take a pill that tasted horrible? it's so nice to actually take a pill that tastes like raspberry.

Comments about SUNNY ISLAND Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Raspberry Ketones™:
It definitely curbed my appetite and I felt "warm" whenever I was active or working out. But for some reason, it just didn't help me lose weight. The time frame was 3 months; and I actually GAINED!
I'm bummed, but I noticed I'm not the only one who posted about weight gain. Maybe it's my chemical make up? Oh well.Comments about SUNNY ISLAND Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Raspberry Ketones™:
I've been using this product for a couple weeks. What I am finding is that it does not work unless you diet and exercise too. It does have the effect of slightly curbing your appetite, but it is not effective without eating right. Period. And that is okay. It is motivating me to watch what I eat more and helping (slightly) in controlling my appetite.

Comments about SUNNY ISLAND Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Raspberry Ketones™:
I have been using this product for over 2 months now. I noticed my appetite decreased right away. I love 8 pounds in two weeks. I have lost a total of 12 pounds to my desired weight of 120. I recently bought this for my mother who has been trying to lose weight for years. In the first week she lost 4 lbs. The only con is sometimes the after taste of Raspberry, but it is not gross.

Comments about SUNNY ISLAND Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Raspberry Ketones™:
I haven't taken this product long-term, but have been taking it on and off for about a week. The biggest change I've noticed is that my stomach feels like it is smaller than it was before. When I eat, I feel like I'm full almost instantly. I'm sure if I were to take it as it indicates, I would lose weight. It makes me a bit jittery, and I sort-of feel nauseous since it makes my stomach feel weird, but I also can't get over how it makes my burps taste like raspberry-- even hours after I take it. Despite all this, I haven't given up on it yet!

Comments about SUNNY ISLAND Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals Raspberry Ketones™:
I've been taking it twice a day for 6 days now. I haven't lost any weight, which isn't surprising because you don't see results that fast. I have, however, gained 3lbs. Which is odd because it is controlling my appetite and giving me more energy. I work out every other day and I'm eating way less, so it's extremely discouraging for me to step on the scale and watch it rise. I need to lose 30lbs, and adding pounds to lose is not something I want. But, just because it's not working right for me, doesn't mean it won't for someone else. They are very easy to take and they taste like raspberrys haha :)
