I am still on the first bottle, and take 5 a day, so been taking them for 30 days. I do notice less carb cravings, and have lost a few lbs. I do feel, not as fatigued. I think I may increase to 10 a day to see if there is more of a difference. So far these are good. I think it will take a bit longer to relieve the joint pain in hips and knees, although I notice there is a bit less.
