Question About All of These Things I Can't Even Pronounce But Are Supposed To Help!

  • Hi, just wondering if anyone has any info on whether the following things really have any benefit in a weight program. A friend of mine gave me a few samples of a packet of citrus drink you put with water that have the following:
    Calcium Pyruvate
    Chromium Picolinate
    Garcinia Cambogia
    Vitamin B-6, B-12, B-3, C
    Garcinia Cambogia
    Burdock Root Tea
    Licorice Root Tea
    Fennel Seed Tea
    Peppermint Tea
    Stevia (sweetener)
    Purified Water and Preservatives

    Packet is about 2Tsp. of liquid you mix with 8 oz. of water.

    Thanks in advance for any info!!!!!!!
  • a little info.
    I can offer some information ( a little bit anyway) about the chromium picolinate (sp?). It is made to speed up the metabolism. Trouble with it...you have to take it for the rest of your life. If you stop, the metabolism goes with it. Commonly found in a lot of over the counter diet aids.
