I wasn't impressed with this product. I liked the other white kidney bean products better. I hate the hard to swallow capsules. Effectiveness Other products with just the white kidney bean was more effective. By the way, I'm on a strict 120 carb diet so you can't say oh it didn't work because she went hog wild on carbs. Not so. Side Effects This will keep you awake all night even if you take it early afternoon.

the product has work good for my needs Effectiveness I've used Carb Intercept for a few years now and what it does is helps me maintain my weight while eating the foods I like which happen to be starchy carby foods!! Im sure if I cut back on the carbs, Id loose weight. I notice weight gain when I don't use the product. Cloths are tighter. After I resume taking CI its all good and try not to run out. I believe its doing something that is a benefit to me weight even if its maintain it. Side Effects I have not noticed any side effects at all at this point

I would highly recommend leaving this product on the store shelf where you found it. Changes are you may even find it marked down on clearance. Even still, leave it on the store shelf where you found it. This product does/did nothing to benefit any type of weight loss and just left me feeling a bit worse than when I started...I thought it left me with funky breath but that was about it.

This pill is not an exuse to sit and eat carbs all day without gaining weight or extra buldge. Although I have seen reviews about losing weight.. thats also not what this pill intends to do. You have (for lack of better terms) a slab of fat behind your stomache that is fed soley on sugar. When carbs turn to sugar gets where it mainly goes - your belly! So for me, it was perfect. I have smaller legs and arms, but my belly has always had a little extra, and by little i mean a good amount. So i kept to my healthy diet, I stil ate wheat/whole grain breads, but this blocked out any of the extra sugar. I did not lose any weight from this product, I just noticed a dramatic decrease in the love handle/belly area. Its also only meant to be taken at 2 meals, so if I decide to have cheesy bread for a snack one day, I know that this product will not effect that at all.. and if I have one meal with pizza, bread sticks, quesidillas, etc. its not going to work for all of that either. To sum it up, if you have a generally healthy diet already and just need a little extra assistance with your mid section, this product is for you!!

Natrol Carb Intercept was not all it's cracked up to be. I took it as directed for about a month and it didn't help me. To be honest, I ate more carbs while taking this product because I had the excuse of the intercept in mind when I would decide what to eat. When I wasn't taking this product, I stayed almost completly away from carbs, but once I started with this product, I ate carbs freely, which hurt my diet. And even though I was taking the Carb Intercept, I didn't lose any weight. I don't think I would recomend it, but people react differently to different products, so it might work for other people.

I am someone who works out regularly, eats healthy but eat way too much at night. I have tried for years not to get the late night munchies but always crave carb loaded but good foods and way too much. Not good! During the winter months I can put on a good extra 15lbs. I noticed this winter that the jeans were getting tight.  I bought these about a week ago and my jeans are already falling off me! Note: I have a fairly fast metabolism but binge eating at night will sabotage just about any body type. I do work out quite a bit. I gave my buddy a few and after a few days he noticed the same thing.  This seems to act like a laxative, which is partly why it works... but I have taken fiber pills and these seem to work much better.  I never weigh myself because lean body mass and body fat % is all I am concerned about. I will take a ready tomorrow morning and post my change in a couple of months. One person said these were expensive? Really? Very inexpensive for weight control. If you really want to see big losses of fat... eat a lot of fresh veggies, fruits with some lean meats. Try to do 15-30 min. of Interval cardio which is short bursts of high intensity followed by something less intense. Example run until your heart rate is high then walk, when you feel like you can run again. This is twice as effective as simple cardio. Have your cheat days or meal (Like mine at night)  just use this product as it says. You should still avoid bad fats. Get your good fats in moderation, fish oil, handful of almonds, flax seed oil. No I don't work for, sell or benefit from this review. I feel like I have finally found something that can help me over the hump get very lean.

I tried the Natrol Carb Intercept and did'nt lose any weight at all . I was very dissapointed. I have struggled with my weight for about 18 years now. It is very hard deciding which diet pill will work because there are so many of them on the market. What works for one person may not work for another. This pill might be great for someone else but it did'nt do anything for me so. I'm not saying dont try it.

Okay so what I mean by the "psychological" side effects, is the ability to fool yourself into thinking that because you are taking this pill, you can eat carbs just the same as you did before and your body will process them differently because of the pill. Although I did think it helped a little, it is not a magic pill.  Obviously there isn't one or obesity would not be such a prevalent disease in our society.  And you must remember, we are meant to have carbs, just make sure they are the right ones, and eaten in moderation. This pill also seemed to give me stomach issues if I did happen to have a meal heavy in carbs.  You should really just try to stay away from complex carbs and eat only high fiber fruits and vegetables. I guess I started writing this review thinking that I was endorsing the use of this product but with a warning label, but now after thinking it through I'd suggest spending your money instead on fresh produce and let mother nature do her work!
