CoffeeSlender: Weight Loss Coffee?
CoffeeSlender is being released in the UK (link).
The Norwegian coffee drink has become one of the fastest selling weight loss products in Scandinavia (src)- and even has a number of clinical trials to back up its claims.
The Coffee Slender drink is essentially an instant coffee that contains 200mg of Svetol per sachet. Svetol is an extract from green Robusta coffee bean (Robusta is a species of coffee (caffea) plant). Svetol has been available as a dietary supplement since 2002.
Since that time a number of studies (PDF) apparently show that Svetol helps regulate blood glucose levels, and spurs weight loss.
The people at CoffeeSlender claim that CoffeeSlender "can help you lose around twice as much weight compared to dieting alone."
Will this become the next major fad supplement?

"Will this become the next major fad supplement?"
Probably not. We already have a similar product – Slim Coffee.
ReplyWell, it's not for me I guess, I very rarely drink coffee, and it says to drink one cup after every meal. Great for people who are coffee addicts though, I wonder how it tastes?
Reply"The people at CoffeeSlender claim that CoffeeSlender "can help you lose around twice as much weight compared to dieting alone."
ReplyI believe 98% of people who "diet" do not sustain any weight loss so twice times zero equals...honest advertising...Geez!!
Look interesting..how much is the price.
ReplyI bought this product when i went to norway over the summer. I tried the product for a week and i lost nothing, it just had me running to the bathroom all day long. So unless you have a problem with regularity I wouldnt take this product. Its just another scam.
Replyhmmm it probably works by leaving the drinkers sped up and manic.
ReplyI work for the UK distributor of CoffeeSLENDER. Perhaps I could clear up a few points;
1. CoffeeSLENDER costs £11.95 for 21 sachets (one weeks supply) or £29.99 for a 200g tube (one months supply)
2. Its not a scam - our claims are backed by rigouros studies performed by qualified independant third parties. Unlike other companies, our studies are available to download on our website. Our evidence has also been positively reviewed by suitably qualified professionals.
3. Its not an "overnight weight loss" or "miracle" product. You need to drink it after meals for at least a month to get the benefit. You also need to diet for it to be effective.
4. Unlike other products, our Studies are available for everyone to see for themselves on our website - www.coffeeslender.co.uk
Hope this helps
David
ReplyThis is a prime example of fraud marketing campain that makes people lose weight unhealthy. Fokes, Keep this "weight loss" junk out of your diet. Instead, try eating "weight loss" fruits and vegtables and stay away from tras fats. You'll lose weight healthier there.
ReplyAs with all supplements, you have to do your part.
ReplyAt the bottom of some weight loss supplement there is a statement to the effect 'when used with a diet and exercise program' and when the weight loss companies advertise a person's weight loss they add 'not typical' even if it is just a couple of pounds.
If you are willing to be running to the bathroom and want a little extra help this sounds like a program for you.
David..thanks for your info. Maybe coffeeslender only work for certain people.I hope its really work, not just user running to the toilet all day long.
ReplyJust what we need... another weight-loss supplement.
ReplyDo people really get roped in to buying this stuff?
Coffee itself has been known to curb your appetite.
Oh well, somebody will get rich off this idea.
Hey James!! This one's for you Buddy! On Good Morning America today which is broadcast from New York City, the Muppet character Kermit the Frog was a featured guest. When asked if Miss Piggy was with him, he answered," No, they won't let her in, she's got too much TRANS-FAT!!" HaHa!!
ReplyWow!! I learn something new every day! I need to find a better joke writer! :-)
ReplyPeople are always looking for the easy way to lost weight without restricting their caloric intake.
ReplyTherefore, others will continue to take advantage of this by coming up with new ways to lost weight, effortlessly.
A ton of money can be made before people discover that a product really doesn't work.
well i guess if you have to go to the restroom all day, then you will lose some weight.
