BODA Botanicals

BODA Botanicals Review:

Background

BODA Botanicals sells a diet supplement that promises to help dieters lose 20% fat in just 12 weeks. It also says that it will build lean muscle mass. Unlike many other diet pills, BODA is FDA approved for these two claims. The FDA gave it the GRAS label, which means “generally recognized as safe.” The pill is based on research that says that linoleic acid reduces body fat and also helps to maintain lean muscle.

What to Eat

Typically, dairy and meat are the body's sources of linoleic acid. However, BODA Extract No. 3 uses a process that converts the linoleic acid in safflower oil to conjugated linoleic acid.

The Good

BODA Extract No. 3 is a natural diet pill. In fact, it is derived from safflower seeds and boosts essential fatty acids. It is also a benefit that BODA has a 30 day return policy. BODA has been on the Today show, CNN and CBS, so it clearly has some respectable credits behind it. The BODA website provides more information than you typically get with a diet supplement site and that is a definite point in this company’s favor.

The Bad

While the 30 day return policy is great, it isn't sufficient time to see if BODA's claims to lose 20% of fat for 3 months will work. Therefore, dieters may be stuck with this product even if it doesn’t deliver what it claims.

The dose is 3 capsules each day. However, many people will find that to be too many pills to take comfortably. While we know that BODA contains safflower oil, it is unclear if this is the only ingredient. BODA is vague about the exact ingredients in their supplement.

Exercise

While BODA Botanicals doesn't recommend specific exercise programs, they do mention that BODA Extract No. 3 enhances results that you will get by exercising.

Cost

One bottle of BODA is $47 and two bottles are $98. If you buy three bottles for $147, you also get a free ebook.
