If you are looking for a miracle pill it's NOT. Most multivitamins have a good amount of CP and that may be good enough for most of us. I also took an extra dose for a time, but did not experience any reduction of cravings.
Dr. Weil doesn't mention it in his assessment, but I have read studies that too much CP can induce depression in some individuals, it's one of the reasons I stopped taking the extra dose.

Eating a well balanced diet on a regular schedule will definitely assist in feeling cravings or grazing tendencies. I have to be very very diligent about giving in to my cravings when I get them. I am always around junk food, I count my blessings that most of the time I don't cave in.
But... I follow a pretty balanced way of eating and I have been trying to up my calories, so this week I am experimenting with the Paleo version of the Bulletproof Coffee. And talk about not getting hungry!!! If I didn't eat on a regular schedule I would have gone all day without eating. It was actually counterproductive to my upping my calories, since I actually ate less than I intended because I was really not hungry AND that is a rare thing for me lol!
Ps...
I posted the recipe here if you are interested in trying: https://www.gastricsleeve.com/forum/...735#post576735
