6 weeks - first thing in the morning
"Been taking it first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach, everyday for 6 weeks. I think empty stomach is the best time for it's absorption (at least for me). When I go running now (just now noticed, this 6 week mark) I noticed I have a lot more fire to burn than I usually do. I can push harder longer or steady longer. I also noticed that my appetite is certainly suppressed, however, cavet be mental for me; if I smell food or want a stimulation from it, I want to eat. But as far as this goes, actual hunger is lightly numbed-- takes the edge off of it similarly to ketosis. The "I NEED TO EAT NOW" feeling. Thus, based on my experience, I recommend this product to all! Try it first thing in the morning before doing anything else! The only cons to this is that I do wish they didn't have acelsulfame and a few other unnecessary ingredients. Also, as others recommended, so far, I love Snow Cone Flavor! Am scared to try another flavor in case I don't like it as much haha ; hard to want to have it first thing if it wasn't good"
TASTE
"I just received my order and am very happy with my purchase . I am happy with the taste and think it is pretty good mixed with 16 oz water bottle . it is not too sweet with this amount of water. I tried the Orange flavored by GNC and could not hold it down . My stomache was so upset and the taste was sooooo sweeet!!!!
I hoping for energy since I work a physical part time job and eventually trim down slowly."
A good product that get the job done - Fruit Punch is not their best flavor though
"This is the second time I've bought the BPI Sports CLA + Carnitine, and its a good product that does the job. I gotta say, I personally feel the snow cone is the better flavor though, as the fruit punch is not great. Its not as bad if you heavily dilute it with more water, but if you use less water? The concentrated fruit punch flavor is bad, and has a really poor after taste.
I deduct one full star for the mediocre fruit punch flavor and the fact this doesn't dissolve super well in water. It has a tendency to clump up a little bit, which leaves some sediment at the bottom."
