I am following a low fat diet, exercise program and taking 400 mg of Brown Seaweed from fucothin and 2 ml of black licorice daily. I have lost 8 pounds in 6 days. I feel good. I’m energized. I sleep well. I am also post menopausal and 40 pounds overweight. Never have I been able to lose weight so easily.

Fucothin is not a mirale weight lose pill. I find it really reduces my cravings for sweets and actually seems to reduce my overall hunger. Very slow weight lose 1-2 pounds every 2-3 weeks but stays off. Have energy to exercise. My main concern is the expense though feel worth it.

I am just opening my second bottle of FUCOTHIN. (2 pills at every meal, 3 times a day). I am very happy with this product and it’s natural properties. After reading other people’s comments, I would like to add my own knowledge:

I have found that I am losing fat, while sticking to a non-gmo, organic diet. I am not dramatically over-weight, just trying to tighten it all up after the birth of my son in 2009. I began taking FUCOTHIN in March 2011, I have lost at least 8 pounds since then. Overall, my energy levels have increased dramatically (I also began sticking with a daily yoga routine) like I said, I do not have a tremendous amount of fat to loose, but I joined a gym for a year and religiously attended (before purchasing this product) without being able to help my ‘problem areas’…even with personal training.

FUCOTHIN, a healthy diet, and my regular yoga routine have CHANGED MY PERCEPTION OF MY BODY! =)

I had started taking this back in June 2008. My starting weight back then was 195 and by the middle of September I was at 164. Unfortunately once it ran out, I couldn’t afford to buy any more. My weight came back on over the years; not because I quit taking this, but because I stopped going to the gym three times a week. I completely agree with some of the other posts. This is not a miracle pill. It won’t magically take the weight off. But it does help with the workouts. Now that my schedule is finally starting to calm down, I will be able to get back into the gym 3x’s a week. And I will be taking Fucothin again. I didn’t have any side effects from it. I will also say this. I didn’t change my eating habits either. But at the same time, I don’t eat much junk food, fast food, drink many sodas. If I do its all in moderation. I refuse to deny myself ice cream or something yummy every once in a while . My biggest problem was not getting into the gym. So with all if that said, once I get over being sick, I will start on Fucothin again and post any results.

Not what WE thought? I rec’d as gift from someone whom lost weight, as I needed a boost. She had lost weight (lots of it) and thought it was great, but now she thinks it links to her cancer. I took it for a few days and stopped owed to a mysterious-nagging *feeling* that something was not right. A month later, I decided to take it again, but after a couple of days, stopped again owed to that same feeling that I could not pinpoint any reason for, but it was negativity and suspicion of something sinister.

Since I was still fat and had no reason for stopping the fuco-thin, I went to try it again a few weeks later, but upon opening the bottle, found a morphed change in the appearance. The capsules had become meshed together like a cancerous-looking mold. The plastic was gone, and this *thing* looked like a plant life form. What had happened to it? It had been kept in a cool, dark location.

When I saw that, I felt that it was my intuition guiding me not to take it. The stuff was alive! A year later, the person whom gave it to me said that the growth I described sounded like what was growing inside of her on her liver. I’m trying to find out if anyone else thinks that they got sick from this concoction? Cancer is not a *good* way to lose weight.

Editor’s comments: FucoThin is basically a seaweed-derived supplement. So unless its been contaminated with a chemical in a production facility, its unlikely its the cause of any sort of cancer, despite how disgusting the pills may have appeared.

Isn’t the placebo effect marvelous? There is no “magic bullet” and fucothin is no better than hoodia, green tea extract, or any other snake oil solution. I dropped $100 on this product and had zero positive effects after months of faithful use. I was very gullible to believe that this product would be effective. All these positive reviews are testimony to wishful thinking.Exercise & calorie restriction is your only solution, folks. Save your money and spend it on something tangible.

It has been interesting reading your comments on Fucothin. I started taking it when I could not got my thyroid supplement for several weeks because they were out of stock. I was leaving for Mexico and panicked at the thought of leaving the country without them since they were making me feel so much better. I googled “thryoid” and found fucothin.

I didn’t realize that it was for weight loss too. It was quite interesting reading Charlie Armstrong’s comment about burning the inner layers of fat deposits because I have been noticing that something different was happening to my body especially around the middle. I am getting those awful celluite looking bumpy things which I have never had before.

Instead of my middle & abdomen being firm, like before, my skin seems loose, not sure if I like that either, ….but, will wait to see the end results. This will be a great bargain if it continues to improve my thyroid (T4) count and I lose weight along with it. I will continue at least for another few months to see. My naturopath didn’t seem concerned about me taking it in place of my thyroid supplement.

I have been taking fucothin for 6 weeks and I have not lost any weight BUT I am noticeably thinner around my waist–my co-workers and family have all commented that I look “so skinny” and my waist is about an inch thinner. The muffin top with too tight pants is reduced. I am able to fit in pants that are a size smaller than I normally wear. When I was first taking it, I did feel a little bit different, maybe a little hotter or sweatier, but I do not notice any change now in how I feel. Even though I cannot tell a measurable difference on the scale, I have definitely lost FAT from around my waist.

I took Fucothin for 2 months as directed. I lost a couple of lbs. I did not know that it was a blood thinner and ended up having a nose bleed that would not stop. I had never had a nose bleed before. I had to go to the ER numerous times and ended up having to have surgery for it and ended up with a blind spot in my left eye. If you do take Fucothin please be careful.
