Good For: Being a natural food supplement that can help you lose weight alongside a healthy, balanced diet.
Overview:
The makers of Meratol™ claim its multi ingredients can help to boost your metabolism, increase alertness, amplify endurance and reduce fatigue. Refreshingly, Meratol™ is promoted as a food supplement designed to be taken alongside a healthy diet and exercise regime, as opposed to replacing it. Its makers even encourage you not to diet when using the tablets, but to eat healthy food in moderation and exercise well.
They also claim that Meratol™ can help you to stay focused when trying to lose weight.
Pros:
- As Meratol™ claims to boost endurance, it should also enable you to improve your capacity to exercise and your performance.
- As well as boosting your metabolism, studies show Meratol™ may help to lesson food cravings and therefore reduce calorie intake. Note the use of ‘may’ in the literature.
- The supplement may also help to burn calories and obstruct carbohydrate intake.
- No food is banned as long as you follow a healthy, balanced diet.
- The supplements are based on natural ingredients and no side effects have been reported.
- Studies suggest that its Cacti-Nea™ ingredient could help with moderate weight loss (among non-obese participants of the study with a BMI of between 20 & 25). The same study also suggests it could have a positive impact on cellulite (aqueous, adipose or mixed cellulite).
- Studies among people with a wide range of BMI, from 28 to 39, showed that the ID-alG™ in Meratol™ (brown algae) helped reduce the ability of the body to store fat, hence reduce the body fat mass, as well as helping to control caloric intake and weight.
Cons:
- Not suitable for vegetarians or vegans due to a small amount of Gelatine in the capsule.
- The 25mg of caffeine contained in the supplement is a relatively low amount if you compare it to the likes of Diet Coke or Pepsi, or even tea, but you do need to take two of the supplements a day. That 50mg of caffeine is potentially equal to an extra small cup of instant coffee each day, so if you’re worried about your caffeine intake, you may want to cut out one coffee a day.
- Since weight loss may well occur even without changing your diet, it could tempt consumers to continue with unhealthy eating habits.
- While the makers of Meratol ™ place a lot of emphasis on a healthy, balanced diet, they include little or no documentation to teach you what that is. As such, you may be eating unhealthily without knowing it.
Sample:
There are 60 capsules in a bottle (one month’s supply), take 2 in the morning before breakfast.
Ingredients:
Capsicum (chilli), brown algae, prickly pear and caffeine.
Health Warnings:
Not to be used if pregnant, when breast feeding or if you have a heart condition.
Summary:
The refreshing thing about Meratol™ is its emphasis on eating healthily and exercising well, as opposed to promising outlandish weight loss claims that it cannot deliver. It is upfront in what the supplement can and cannot do, and what other benefits it may have. If it does live up to its assertions, it may well be the best choice for those who want to lose weight the healthy way but need a little helping hand to keep them on track.

Saw this featured on the front page of the Daily Express this morning – very exciting!
I also saw the feature in the Daily Express and I have ordered a 60day supply.
I too saw this in the daily express and immediately ordered 60 days supply. Is this finally the answer to my prayers ? i ask myself. I cant wait for them to arrive so that I can start.
i order this produvt the day it came out have you recieved yours yet im still waiting and cant seem to get through on the phone was on hold for over 45 min so gave up !!
Has anyone received theirs yet???
I too saw the article & ordered a 60 day supply on 28th December, I’ve received a confirmation email today that my order has been dispatched, along with an apology for the delay!
I saw the article in the Express and ordered four months’ supply on 29th December. I emailed the company yesterday asking where my order is. I received the standard reply which I have seen already on 6th January – posted on the internet by someone else who received this same email in response to her enquiry about her order. It states that “orders made before 3rd January are being processed now and will be dispatched in the next 48 hours”. I hope so. On ordering, we are told it will arrive within 5-8 working days. This is already a long waiting time. Yesterday was the 8th working day. It is simply unacceptable.
I must be lucky I ordered 4 months supply on Thursday and its here already! Took my first two pills today before dinner! Perhaps it was just the first lot of orders that got a bit delayed??
Anyone else received their order yet. E mail said it was dispatched on 7th first class but still not come yet
Well people I am reporting back after using meratol for a week and I have to say Im excited about the initial results!
I have weighed in today at just over 5lbs less than last week which is very exciting indeed!! I can definitely see the difference on my tummy as well. Granted, I have been eating better and walking every morning and evening, but since I started taking this I can definitely feel a bit of a difference
Mine have still not arrived after several weeks and an email on the 13th stating they were dispatched 1st class on that day, it’s now the 19th!! Have tried contacting but no response
Ordered mine 29th december, and mine arrived today. If that’s any help to anyone
Mine apparently was despatched on 13th Jan now the 25th Jan, think it’s a bit longer than 4-5 working days to arrive- not happy
I started mine today, took two with cereal and I havent felt hungry all day…..
Extremely unhappy about the shipping, ordered a month and half ago and still not received it!!! I think this could be a red flag…! please be cautious! I will keep you updated once I received it!
After my first order was “lost” a second batch arrived. The suppliers told me to keep the first batch if it subsequently appeared.
I am a 66-yr old man in reasonable health with an average weight of about 14.5 stones. I usually starve myself to lose the few pounds put on over Christmas but decided to try Meratol.
I have been taking the tablets for one week and there is absolutely no sign whatsoever of them taking effect. There is no increase in my metabolic rate and no suppression of hunger.
I shall report again in a few weeks but I am seriously unimpressed.
mm i ordered mine on the 3rd Jan-apprently they were despatched on the 14th-still waiting………..keep been told to wait til the end of each week!
can anyone tell me if the company is legitimate?????
i finally received my bottle at the weekend after a long wait. I’m taking 2 in the morning but I don’t feel any different apart from feeling very tired. Is this the same for anyone else !!!
With some persistence I did manage to get through to their customer service department and apparently the reason why orders are taking so long to process is because the company has been “inundated with orders since meratol was picked up on by the papers”. So they are “very busy”.
I can appreciate that, but shouldn’t they have been prepared? Surely they knew this would happen?
Ordered mine on the 14th and received them today (27th). Have been on a diet for 4 weeks and have lost 13lbs should I now increase my carb intake now I’m taking tablets? I have been on 1000 calories and less than 14g of fat plus 1/2 hr exercise a day. I am 5ft 11 so diet is quite severe.
Mine arrived earlier this month after just over a week of waiting. Been taking them in conjunction with 30 mins/5 days of morning exercise ever since and haven’t lost a pound in actual weight according to the scales. However I have lost a good 1/2 inch at least off my waist and look a little more toned and shapely now aswell.
So I think these meratol pills are helping but I think its important to get some exercise and not rely on these pills to do 100% of the work. These pills may help you burn calories and lose fat but exercise is still needed if you want to get th best looking body after weight loss because it builds and tones your muscles and shapes your body.
well i have been waiting since the 21st dec and im still waiting….not happy at all!!
i have been taking mine for 3 weeks and have NOT lost a pound !!!! i have done everything it says on the box ,i think they are a complete waste of money !!!
Iv been taking the meratol pills for 5 weeks and only lost 3 pounds, iv also been eating sensibly and excersising too. I cant feel a major difference but gonna stick by it. Gud luk everyone!
Never written on a blog before, but considering the difficulty I had finding a decent review of these pills Which didn’t seem to be an advert for them I thought I’d share my experience with these!
Despite finding little independent reviews on this product, I ordered 2 months worth, only took a week to arrive! Guess I was lucky.. Been on them nearly a week now, taking 2 every morning, and have already lost 9lbs! I know it sounds bit crazy, think most of it may be water weight as had a few drinks at a friends party and woke up with the worsttttt headache! Feeling no side affects at all.. I’m 19, was around 180lbs and couldn’t seem to shift the weight I wanted to loose with just exercise, so I thought I’d give these a go! Exercising a lot still and eating much healthier which helps but I can’t imagine I would have lost that this quickly without the pills.. Will try and keep you guys updated on how it’s going if people find this helpful, Internet seems to be’ filled with what seem like crazily biased reviews!
Update from my review of 27th January. Having already lost 3 1/2 pounds a week for nearly four weeks I started to take Meratol to give me a boost to help carry on with the diet. Since then I have lost only 3lbs in two & 1/2 weeks. If I stray from the diet (only slightly – extra 200 calories) I find I put on weight the next day. Not very promising if you hope to use it to maintain your weight and I don’t think the tablets have anything to do with the 3lbs I have lost. Very disappointing.
I ordered mine on January 24th and received on February 14th. I started on February 15th and so far have noticed no side affects, only decreased appetite and a lot less munching!
Almost finished my first month’s tablets and I think they are a total waste of time and money as I have not lost a single ounce.
I have lost almost 5 lbs with meratol in two weeks which is great! But I’m wondering will this rate of weight loss continue for as long as I keep on taking the pills?
These meratol pills have shifted about 3lbs off me in the first week of taking. That’s with no exercise and only eating less due to reduced hunger level. They suppress hunger well and must be working because I havent’ changed anything else.
i am taking for 2 days and feel less food craving
Hi guys,Have been taking meratol for weeks now they do work you just have to give them time to react to your body,also my order came within 4 days,So if you ordered them around christmas time their sure was a delay.
These tablets are not a appetite supressor i assure you but they do work for carb blocking so that is a plus. If you are after a appetite supressor then i can reccomend you take pure hoodia it works a treat i lost 30lbs in 4 months took them for 7months altogether but they do stop working after a certain period of time hence why i have started to take meratol.xx
Great product, does the job well. Feel more energetic with them and lost 5 lbs since started beginning of month.
Good review -
I was expecting to be disappointed with these same as every other slimming pill I’ve tried but these ones DO work. No magic bullet but defintely getting steady weight loss of about two pound a week from taking them which is good for me!
Don’t know if its same for every order but i got a £5 voucher with mine for my next order so thats a bonus!
I tried these tablets for one month and they made absolutely no difference to either my metabolism or my appetite, think it must depend on the individual!
Both myself and my friend shared 4 bottles of meratol and in 2 mnths I lost 14 lbs. and she has gained 2 lbs. Why? Because she abused it and ate rubbish thinking the pills would make her lose weight regardless (even tho she wont admit it!)
Lesson to be learned here ppl: dont think that because your taking them you will lose weight without thinking about what your putting in your mouth!
Hi
I ordered my Meratol on Monday and received them on Wednesday … great. Have started them and don’t feel hungry at all.. will keep you posted
I have been taking these for 3 days now after being on a diet for almost 4 weeks! I can now get through the day eating a healthy breakfast lunch and dinner without feeling hungry in between! Before I started taking these I was constantly starving so they definitely suppress ur appetite! Haven’t felt any bad side effects at all! Don’t feel an increase in energy which I think is a good thing as it’s not what I want from a diet pill! Overall I would recommend these from what I have felt so far!
Me and my friend ordered 2 months supply between us, I didn’t diet I ate what I wanted when I wanted without a 2nd thought.I did not put weight on, however upon stopping the tablets my weight went through the roof. My friend lost 6lb the first week and has continued to lose weight since, and she does diet but she has her bad days too,I’ve ordered my second lot and this time I am going to diet swell, so let’s see the result. I do think whilst on these tablets they blocked a lot of my calorie intake hence not putting on weight whilst eating terribly.
hi when you stop them u will double weight… trust me.. i,m on tabs now but no use to suppres hunger. plus a diet i have done and dot a friend to try it i lost 6lb she lost 10lb but u only do it 3 days a week can any1 tell me good hunger supressasant please cos metrol fecked me up
I just wanted to share this with everyone, after reading on the website that there were no side effects from taking Meratol, I was suprised when almost straight away I started experiencing tight chest, chest pains and phlegm. I did some research and turns out that these symptoms and also hives and skin rashes are allergic reaction to the prikly pear. I didnt take these long enough to judge if they worked well for weight loss, but I what I will say is look out for these symptoms. Proactol also contains prikly pear so I cant try these, but I have ordered some Capsiplex so I will see how I will get on with these, I dont eat chilli much but as far as I know I am not allergic!!
I ordered these last Saturday and the tablets arrived on Tuesday so very quick delivery .I started them on Wednesday so early days yet ,after two days I don’t feel any differ ant ,still wanting snacks .I am also following sw so will see if they will help me loose a bit more as weight loss has been slow with diet and exercise alone .I have one stone to loose to target so will keep you all posted
well nearly a week on the tablets still craving sweets and chocolate but pleased to report a 3lb loss this week .I am not sure now much is the tablets as I have also been on my diet plan but happy so far if i get a good loss this week will be very pleased .I just wish I wasn’t craving the wrong foods x
