My husband has been taken this as directed now for 4 weeks. It has helped him to cut down on his munching and grazing in the pantry at night. He loves that he has cut down on portion size and has lost 7 lbs so far. Very good product for him. Gave him the ability to do what he was already trying to do - cut back on food intake.
