Carb Blocker 2
NutriLite
Overview
This 'Carb Blocker 2' supplement contains ingredients with theoretical mechanisms for carbohydrate inhibition. However, the clinically relevant efficacy of white kidney bean extract for significant weight or fat loss is modest and inconsistent, and the other ingredients (soybean extract, parsley concentrate) do not have strong direct evidence as carb blockers. The claims of blocking specific calorie amounts are extrapolated from laboratory tests and require more robust in-vivo human data.
The Good
Contains a studied ingredient (White Kidney Bean Extract) with some evidence for carbohydrate inhibition.
Non-stimulating formula, avoiding issues associated with stimulant-based weight loss aids.
Relatively low risk of severe side effects for healthy individuals.
The Bad
Efficacy for significant weight loss is largely unproven or very modest.
Potential for gastrointestinal side effects (e.g., flatulence, soft stool) due to carbohydrate malabsorption.
Requires precise timing with meals for potential efficacy.
