Raspberry Ketone supplements

[Broadscruiser]

Has any type 1 diabetic tried the new Ketoburn dx supplements, although not cheap, they are supposed to lower Hba1c, diminish appetite, and cause weight loss without dieting.
They sound great, but are they safe for type 1s ? Apparently based on raspberry ketone, and raved over by all the dragons on Dragons Den who have backed it.
I don't want to buy some and find that it's not safe for us to use, although the manufacturer says it's ok. Had anyone actually tried it.
Thanks.

I think the clue here is 'supposed to' . There is little actual data to back these claims and this diet craze was soundly debunked about 10 years ago. Try googling raspberry ketones debunked for a ton of evidence.

Supplements have probably never seen a real plant based source in their short existance
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_ketone
It is a concoction that can be made industrially without ever seeing a berry. according to WebMD website there is no support that this supplement improves weight or fat loss and had many negative responses from their research.

although the manufacturer says it's ok.

So do the Rat Sak manufacturers, but I would not eat it.

It is like a fake tan - a 'pretend' result for no real benefit.
