Review: XIUM; Pure Green Coffee Bean Extract

XIUM; Pure Green Coffee Bean Extract

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆

So. Not. Impressed. Before I get into my reasoning though, I do want to tell you a little bit about the product. It is a product that has been seen on the Dr. Oz tv show. I've provided the clip of it below.

On their Amazon product page, regarding the product description, the company states: 

XIUM Green Coffee Bean Extract is Pure and 100% free of any artificial ingredients. Why not trust the brand doctors recommend the most? Green Coffee Bean Extract 800 with GCA provides safe and effective weight loss for all body types. Not a stimulant. Our product won't make you jittery or raise your heart rate like other products that may contain roasted coffee or ephedra.

And under important information:

I am not a fan of the Dr.Oz show, and by that I mean that I have never watched it. When I heard about this product, I was intrigued. Aren't most women? The idea of achieving sought after weight loss with the help of just one little pill.  So, when I had the chance to try the product out for free, in exchange for a review on here, I jumped on it. 

I was disappointed. I'd had some luck in the "natural" weight loss category before. Garcinia cambogia effectively reduced my appetite cravings. In turn, I ate less and lost weight.  This product made me hopeful for similar results. 

I actually tried TWO products from this company. There are complementary to each other in supposedly achieving weight loss. I tried them both, as instructed, and received no results for my efforts. I was so disappointed. 

A bottle of 90 capsules is sold for $9.32 on the site I linked above. If taken as recommended, this is less than a one month supply. Another disappointing factor.  Purchasing two bottles a month for something that didn't work it out of the question, and I can only be thankful I didn't waste a perfectly good ten dollar bill on this bottle. 

So why the one star? I had to give this product at least one star, because there is definitely more people on Amazon saying that it worked for them, then those saying that it didn't. For me it didn't. I don't know if it will work for you, or not. 

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
