Can any hcp tell me if raspberry ketone supplement is safe to aid weight loss in diabetics. I am type 1 for 33yrs and am age 44yrs on insulin and also metformin and 10mg ramipril for blood pressure and and have always been a little overweight but find it difficult to stick to various diets long term even though I am a busy mum and moderately active. I have read a little on line about initial raised bg and Bp on initial stages of taking raspberry ketones. Please help I need to be bikini ready by May !

I only know bits about it that was in an article on womens health mag or channel 4 news website and it was mentioned that this was the latest celeb diet fad and as they come from raspberry I thought I might be natural enough. I wouldn't try anything like this without the right advice as I'm no doctor and just wondered if anybody else knew more than me x c

I was overweight 112 kg HCP kept telling me its the insulin and I believed them, but one day about a year ago I decided enough was enough. so I cut out bread butter all fried foods and started a healthy diet and for me the magical addition to my diet was linseed and chai seed taken with my morning bran flakes now I am down to 87 kg and have never felt better its worth a look at these seeds Very Happy and of course heathly eating

You should be very careful where you source this from. It's a well known scam.

My advice would be to buy only after speaking to healthcare professionals and sources them properly from a local supplier. Even then, just avoid!
