Propolene Experiences
Written by: Ellen R. Delisio
Some customers have reported great success losing weight while using Propolene, while others have said that they are displeased with the product and with the Obesity Research Institute's marketing and sales approaches.
In one infomercial, consumers described weight loss while using Propolene as easy, saying it works by itself, and that all people have to do is take a pill and the weight comes off.
On one Web site, a user says she lost 10 pounds after using Propolene for five days, no longer eats as much as she used to and plans to continue using it until she reaches a goal weight. Another person reported taking Propolene for about three weeks, taking three pills before dinner, and has lost 10 pounds, without exercising. At the same time, this person reported now eating a healthy breakfast and lunch, and recently starting an exercise program.
Still another consumer noted losing 10 pounds and nine inches overall after using Propolene for a month. The same person wrote that her appetite decreased substantially, and she did not experience any of the jitters or other side effects as she did with other weight loss products.
Others, though, reported either no weight loss while using Propolene, or side effects that made them discontinue using the product.
Some people, though, have complained that they developed abdominal cramps and diarrhea after taking Propolene, and did not experience any weight loss. One person reported feeling sick and cramped after two weeks, and had not shed a pound.
In other cases, consumers reported discrepancies with the advertised cost of the product and what they actually were charged. Several people reported being told that the cost was $29.95 a bottle, and then were billed $89.95, after being told they would receive two bottles for the price of one. Some people also said that they were automatically billed for more shipments of Propolene, even when they didn't order it.
And some mentioned that customer service representatives were reluctant to give them credit, even though the company guarantees money back in 30 days if customers are not satisfied. That is minus the cost of shipping.
