Apatrim: at a Glance
Patent Health is the manufacturer of the weight loss product Apatrim. The website for Apatrim is generally informative; however, it’s marketed as an “As Seen on TV!” product, which is off-putting to some consumers. The website for the product contains some customer testimonials, including a video with “before” and “after” examples.
The website also claims that the product was tested by Dr. Ronald M Lawrence, who claimed that Apatrim works 100% of the time. Patent Health has been involved in a number of shady practices, including buying newspaper ads and disguising them as news articles, and making outrageous claims for Apatrim. However, Patent Health was sued by Gencor Pacific, who sponsored the clinical trial.
Apatrim: Facts
Apatrim is made out of plant extracts, and contains no stimulant. Apatrim is largely comprised of Caralluma Fimbrata, which the manufacturers claim is an appetite suppressant which has been ‘used for centuries’ by tribesmen. Caralluma Fimbrata is similar to Hoodia Gordonii, which is used in a number of weight loss products. Without ingredient information, people with food allergies or sensitivity may be at risk. Apatrim’s instructions simply state to take two capsules before lunch and dinner.
Apatrim: Positive Features
- Though there’s no information about how much, it does contain an appetite suppressant.
- Apatrim doesn’t require a complicated dosing schedule, and the instructions are easy to follow.
- Apatrim is inexpensive, at only $48 for two bottles.
- Apatrim comes with a 90 day guarantee.
Apatrim: Negative Features
- Apatrim and Patent Health (the company which makes Apatrim) have garnered a number of negative reports.
- The claims and statements made by the company are not FDA approved.
- Almost every claim which the company made is followed by a disclaimer in tiny print which is hard to read.
- There’s no information about what the product contains.
- Apatrim has been marketed as a “miracle” product, which seems rather unlikely.
- The testimonials also make such questionable claims such as the one that says the product begins working at once.
- This product can only be purchased directly from the company.
Apatrim: Conclusion
Apatrim is probably not the best product for appetite suppression. Informed consumers will likely steer clear of a product which makes such grandiose claims — and refuses to list its ingredients. Some people will find the ingredient, Caralluma Fimbriata, attractive, but most would rather use a product containing Hoodia Gordonii.
