PRODUCT REVIEW: E-book: The Weight Loss & Detox Secret - Green Smoothies by Jonathan Vine

Jonathan did a great joke writing this book! He includes an explanation of what "Green Smoothies" are, what the benefits are from juicing, weight loss info, and great recipes.

I enjoyed trying the Kale & Blueberry, the Spinach & Citrus, and the Spiced Pumpkin (it has molasses!) and they were great! I can't wait to try the others!

PRODUCT REVIEW: Sari Foods' Organic Spirulina

I so wanted to love this! I am a big fan of proteins and wheys and the like, that I add to my smoothies or teas, because, honestly, I did not have a great diet as I aged, so I balance out my bad habits with adding greens and proteins that I would not normally consume or chew, to my smoothies. This Spirulina is a great concept. Really! But sadly, this was a poor product.

After cutting open the top of the bag, the odor hit me. I thought, ok, I could get used to this just like I did with valerian root, just leave the bag open a minute while you get other things ready... no, I can't, it was just too overwhelming.

Second, the 1/2 spoonful I put into my hot tea did not melt. It clumped up on the spoon like a baby koala hanging on his momma for dear life! Strangest thing I've ever seen. So, I stirred and stirred. Approximately half of it broke away and floated on top, never mixing in. The rest of it stayed firmly attached to the spoon. I had to use a paper towel to pull it off over the trashcan. Then I dumped out the ruined cup of tea and rinsed the cup out.

Third, the bag would not reclose! No matter what: starting from the end, starting from the middle, mash mash MASH! It did not matter, that zip was not going to match up and seal! So I slowly folded the top over (so as not to inhale anymore odor), and zipped it into a gallon baggie.

Unfortunately, I will not be trying this in a smoothie this week... maybe next week.

I'm so sorry to give a 'bad' review, it's my first in a very long time, but I do not think, at this point in time, that this product is a good choice. Maybe later down the road after improvements.

I suggest they rework the seal situation, and somehow incorporate something into the 'food' to make it blend into hot liquid. 

My Rating: Poor (because I can't bring myself to type an 'F'!)

PRODUCT REVIEW: True Sol - Saffron (fat loss)

Two weeks ago, I was using these daily and actually enjoyed doing so; I like the ingredient label, and the fact that I don't have to take these 'before' I eat a meal. I simply do not have time to do that, much less count the time until I am supposed to eat.

There was no strange taste or odor, they swallow easily, there were no side effects, and I did notice a difference in the way my clothes were fitting, that's the main goal.

I had no problems with this product at all.

My Rating: A

Product Description

When used as a weight loss aid, saffron supplements are purported to curb appetite and reduce cravings. Some proponents suggest that saffron can help increase brain levels of serotonin (a chemical known to regulate mood) and, in turn, help prevent compulsive overeating and the associated weight gain. #saffron

PRODUCT REVIEW: 80% HCA Garcinia Cambogia Extract Fat Loss Tablets by Wellness Bioscience

I enjoyed using these because I am not required to take them 30 minutes before meals like other fat blocking pills. If I forget to take them before a heavy meal, I can take them later when I remember.

They did not have a strange flavor, they were fairly easy to swallow considering their size, and they did not cause any side effects like stomach pain, etc. 

I did see a difference last week in how I felt about eating, and how my clothes felt, so that is a huge plus.

I had no problems with this product what-so-ever.

My Rating: A

I have these last two photos enlarged so that you can read the labels well.

Discover the Easy and Effective Way to Lose Weight, Gain Energy, and Transform Your Body Into a Lean Machine

Garcinia Cambogia is a small native fruit from Indonesia. It has been used in South Asia dishes, and it was found that its use could result in weight loss.
Researchers claim that its natural extract called hydroxycitric acid (HCA) can significantly increase one's weight loss results. Now it has been clinically proven to be not only effective in weight loss, but also promotes healthy cholesterol, increases serotonin levels and ultimately enhances general wellness.
Look no further if you want to boost your health through curbing your appetite, improving your mood, and losing weight.

Understand Now How the HCA Works

The HCA helps block fat formation. It inhibits the citrate lyase synthesis, which is responsible for the conversion of carbohydrates into fat.
HCA suppresses appetite by increasing serotonin levels, which is a neurotransmitter that makes you feel good and improves your mood, helping control reactive or emotional eating.

Fast and Effective Weight Loss, for Guaranteed Results

(09-11-2014, 210 lbs starting weight, post bathroom, pre breakfast: I started using it this morning before I had my coffee and a chicken biscuit from Chickfila which I rarely eat in the a.m., so that was a good 'testing' time to start! You take 1 tab twice a day 30 minutes before meals. That was always hard for me to do when I worked outside the home and was trying to lose weight, but now I work from home and can control time! Muahahaha! Well, inside my own home at least...)
