“Raspberry Ketones” are a fraud. Ketones are a naturally occurring component found in several plants, including raspberries- take my Herb and Natural Medicine course to really understand ( www.naturalnurse.com EDUCATION) The point is , that taking a supplement will not lead to instant weight loss, healthy eating and exercise will! It never ceases to amaze me that so many people can be influenced by a mistaken concept that Dr Oz shares- perhaps he should include a well trained natural health care practitioner to fact check some of the concepts he quotes to avoid so much confusion and incorrect assumptions, and well as misplaced and unrealistic expectations.
Red Raspberries are GREAT- eat them- they DO contain ketones- but just because a pill is called Raspberry Ketones it will only aid with weight loss if taken along with healthy eating and exercising. For a protocol that DOES work, see my book, WEIGHT LOSS. Ellen Kamhi PhD RN AHG AHN-BC, The Natural Nurse
