February 19, 2008 # 4:07 pm # Fat Burning Pills # 71 CommentsLipozene 1500 mg Diet Pill – A Sensational Scam!
Daily I get atleast 20 people searching for Lipozene / Lipocene / Lypozene diet pills. I don’t know whether they come here searching for reviews or to buy Lipozene. I am sure TV Commercials made them to search for Lipozene.
This made me to find out whose product Lipozene is, what this weight loss product is made of and How it works etc. But I could not contact anyone who has used Lypozene.
Who Is behind Lipozene?
The Obesity Research Institute, run by Henny Den Uijl and Bryan Corlett, is the maker of Lipozene. In 2005, the Federal Trade Commission fined these men and ORI $1.5 million for misleading claims about their fiber, weight loss products viz., FiberThin and Propolene.
Ingredients of Lipozene 1500 mg
Lipozene’s main ingredient is Propol, which is company’s trademarked name for glucomannan which is nothing but a soluble fiber found in konjac root.
Glucomannan is the Western name for vegetable fibers derived from an Asian plant family known as konjac.
How Glucomannan works?
According to a study done by the Rush University College of Nursing in Chicago in 2005 “Glucomannan may promote weight loss. At doses of 2-4 g per day, Glucomannan was well-olerated and resulted in significant weight loss in overweight and obese individuals”
According to Drug Digest “Glucomannan does not dissolve in water, but forms a thick, gooey gel when exposed to fluids. The body does not digest glucomannan, so the resulting large soft mass moves through the intestines and may trigger intestinal muscle contractions.”
Glucomannan Side Effects
According to Drug Digest “Glucomannan tablets are not recommended for oral use. Reportedly, several individuals experienced blockage of the esophagus when they took glucomannan in tablet form.”
User Feedback
All these frightened me and I started searching online for user feedback online in various forums and comments for different articles on Lipocene. Though most were negative, I got many positive comments also. Don’t know whether they are true or just spams.
Negative comments said ” It results in diarrhea and cramps, loss of sleep, vomiting etc”
But I could not contact anyone personally who has used Lypozene.
Buy lipocene?
Even after reading this if you want to go for lypozene it is your choice! Price $29.95 for one bottle ( there is buy one get one free offer)
But take plenty of water to minimize side effects.
Recommendation
I do not endorse lipozene whose main ingredient is fiber. Instead you have easier and cheaper ways to get fiber into your diet by consuming high fiber fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains.
But if you serious about losing weight you can go for anyone of the following weigh loss products which I think are fairly good and proved.
- Proactol : This is a clinically proven fat binder that can aid safe weight loss. Now it has announced special discount e-vouchers that make Proactol very much affordable. Read Proactal Review and E-vouchers

I decided to try lipozene after diet and exercise hadn’t been helping me lose any weight. need to lose weight because i moved down here to florida june of 2010 weighing in at 122lbs and now i’m nearly 160lbs. i’ve been using the stuff for about a week and i’ve had some pretty odd side effects. i’ve been following the instructions drinking plenty of water when i take the pills and also increased my daily water intake, etc. in the short time i’ve been taking this product i’ve actually gained 5lbs and i’ve also had really bad diarrhea since i’ve started it. this stuff is literally making me sick. although since i hate wasting money i’m going to finish using the stuff so i don’t have to look at the bottles anymore. i really don’t think i’m going to buy another box after this. if i wanted to take something that has the same effects as a laxative i would have spent a lot less money and just bought laxatives. you’d think that with my diet and exercise on top of taking these pills they would have started to do something in the right direction not the wrong direction.
WHAT ARE THE INNGREDIENTS AS APPEAR ONNN THE LABEL PLEASE? TYPE OUT ALL THE DAMN INGREDIENTS! wtf?
Other Ingredients:
Gelatin, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium silicate, stearic acid, titanium dioxide and FD&C Blue #1
I have been taking lipozene for the past maybe 8 months, and i have not been disapointed. I have not had any side efects from taking the pills. however I dont take them the way it says to on the bottle. what I have been doing is, I drink and breakfast drink in the morning, I drink a wieght loss shake in the after noon for lunch, mild snacks in between, then for dinner, I will take 2 lipozene pills about an hour before my meal and have a normal dinner at night. I have been very happy with lipozene. since May of 2011 i have lost 85 pounds. I feel great and i have recommended lipozene to many of the people in my life…
