What Is Garcinia Cambogia Used For?
Question: Any thoughts on the garcinia cambogia pills?
Brief Answer:
Not very effective alone
Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
These pills I suppose you want to take for weight loss.
So,let me tell you that there are no standard trials which claim there efficacy.
They are slightly helpful only if combined with exercise and dietary modifications.
I won't recommend you to depend on it solely.
I have not seen very good or significant responses in my clinical practice in my patients who choose to take these pills.
However , yes, definitely there is slight reduction in craving for carbohydrates and sweets.
I don't feel there is any problem if you want to give them a try.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.

I used to take them. I found I was full fast when I was taking them. I heard good things as long as you get the right ingredients. I just wanted conformation from a doctor that they are ok since mine didnt know much about them.
