Helps curb appetite
- 33 overweight or obese adults were randomized to take 500mg of Caralluma fimbriata extract twice per day or a placebo for 12 weeks, while being guided to consume 500 calories less per day and exercise. Compared to the placebo group, the group taking Caralluma had a decrease in palatability (appeal) of food and sodium intake. [1]
- 50 overweight or obese adults were randomized to take 1g of Caralluma fimbriata extract per day or a placebo for 60 days and were given recommendations for reducing food intake and doing physical activity. The group that took the Caralluma had greater decreases in appetite compared to placebo. [2]
- 83 overweight or obese adults took 1g of Caralluma fimbriata extract per day or a placebo for 16 weeks and were given recommendations for reducing food intake and doing physical activity. The group that took the Caralluma had greater decreases in appetite compared to placebo. [3]
- A study of 20 obese adults took 900mg of 5-HTP per day or a placebo for 12 weeks. For 6 weeks they were not given a diet to follow, and for another 6 weeks they were given a reduced calorie diet to follow. The group that took 5-HTP had a greater reduction in carbohydrate intake, felt full earlier while eating, and had greater weight loss compared to the placebo group. [4]
Balances blood sugar levels
- A review of studies supplementing chromium to people with and without diabetes found that 200mcg/day of chromium (the amount in Skinny Bird) appears to help balance already healthy blood sugar levels in people without diabetes. [5]
Helps manage stress eating
- A study of 20 obese adults took 900mg of 5-HTP per day or a placebo for 12 weeks. For 6 weeks they were not given a diet to follow, and for another 6 weeks they were given a reduced calorie diet to follow. The group that took 5-HTP had a greater reduction in carbohydrate intake, felt full earlier while eating, and had greater weight loss compared to the placebo group. [4]
- 14 healthy participants either took 100mg of 5-HTP supplement or a placebo and then 30-45 minutes later were shown images of different types of foods from TV commercials while in an MRI to measure brain activity. Results showed that the 5-HTP activated the part of the brain that responds to food rewards, indicating that they were less likely to crave a food even if it was desirable (i.e., high fat, high carbohydrate food images). [6]
