Healthy Natural Systems
Garcinia Cambogia Extract

Healthy Natural Systems Garcinia Cambogia Extract fell into our number two spot just below our top supplement. This product has a few good points, but failed to live up to a few of the standards we have set to be the best. It only contains 500mg of Hydroxycitric Acid, which is less than the recommended 1600mg daily serving. In addition, it also contains added ingredients that can dilute the formula and render it less effective.

Is HNS Garcinia Cambogia Effective?

While most formulations of Garcinia Cambogia are effective if they contain pure Garcinia Cambogia and at the 1600mg per day dosage, this formula only provides 500mg of Hydroxycitric Acid and they further dilute the formula with Chromium. We referred to the product website and other retail outlets to take a look at customer reviews. This product received a lot of reviews, but were mostly negative. This product received a few two or three star reviews, but most of them received only one star. We decided to take a deeper look into why this is happening.

The negative reviews focused on the fact that the product did not work for an individual and when thy looked at product labeling, they noticed that the product differed from what they saw on programs that stated the recommendations for quality Garcinia Cambogia. They could clearly see that a product with a low dosage and fillers was not effective. These educated consumers could clearly see they did not get what they were paying for and stated it in the context of their reviews. This is why it is so important for a company to clearly place product labelling and ingredients for people to see prior to purchase.

While negative reviews are not a bad thing, what the company does to rectify consumer complaints is very important. We could not see any communication from the company back to these un-happy consumers and the product remains unchanged in formulation. We can clearly see this product is probably not effective for fat loss.

This product is sold as a single bottle with no multi-bottle discounts offered. While it already has a competitive low price for just one bottle, the lower price could also mean a less quality product. Also, there is no money-back guarantee posted. Having a money-back guarantee means a manufacturer stands behind their product. It shows they have taken the care and detail to produce a quality product and if consumers are unhappy, they can return the unused bottles for a full refund. When there is no guarantee, it makes it appear that this may be an inferior product.

The Bottom Line: We cannot say that Healthy Natural Systems Garcinia Cambogia is effective for two reasons. One, it has a considerably lower dose than the leading brand. Two, it contains added ingredients that can dilute the formula and render it even more ineffective. It may have worked for a few people, but there were quite a few reviews that stated it did not work.

Is Healthy Natural Systems Garcinia Cambogia Safe?

Healthy Natural Systems Garcinia Cambogia contains 500mg Hydroxycitric Acid per serving. This is less that the recommended 800mg capsule to make 1600mg per day for effectiveness. Even though the capsules are a lower dose, this increases the risk of people overdosing by taking too many capsules. It is very important to stay within the recommended guideline of 1600mg per day of Garcinia Cambogia for safety reasons.

They also add Chromium into the formula. The safety of Chromium with Garcinia Cambogia has not been tested. There is no way to tell if Garcinia Cambogia and Chromium have any drug to drug interactions or adverse effects when taken together. It is always best to take 100% Pure Garcinia Cambogia with no added ingredients. This includes no fillers or binders as well.

Summary

In our opinion, this product could be better with a higher dose capsule of at least 800mg per serving. It may also be more effective if the company made it with Pure Garcinia Cambogia without the addition of Chromium. With the negative reviews on the website, we placed this product in our number two position.
