Supposed to be good for energy, blood pressure as well as help with weight loss. I tried googling reviews of this but so many sites are really just vendors, can't find any true feedback other than 2 reviews on Amazon.
Thanks!
So I went back on Amazon and did find lots more reviews, both good and bad. So I am undecided about trying it.
I find most of his reccomendations to be fads honestly - I take very little of what he says seriously.

I had heard about this episode and accidentally deleted my DVR recording of it. Does anyone know if this show or segment can be viewed online any place? I'm very curious. I don't believe in this type of dieting but this is a very respectful show so would really like to hear more. Thanks.
I have to disagree with the other posters about OZ. If they actually took the time to watch his show they would realize the excellent research that goes into what he brings to his viewers.
I saw that episode and would love to try it!
I'm with Kristina M.
Dr. Oz is a health extremist. Take his advice with a grain of salt, and yes, he probably finds fault with salt.
But no, I never tried green coffee, not even on St. Pat's Day!
Starbucks released a drink that had green coffee in it last year. They had two, and they looked like a tea. I do remember they were low in cal (compared to anything else they have besides plain un-sweetened coffee) and the pink one was really yummy. It still gave me a burst of energy like any other coffee did.
I was dieting last summer which is why I opted to get those instead of my regular high calorie frapps. I think it was just a seasonal thing though.

There are nutritional properties to just about all foods. It's misleading and "hype" to take one nutrient that the food offers and suggest it can do miracle things. (Sometimes it's not even safe, and supplements aren't regulated by the FDA.) Dr. Oz's show is too "sensational" for my conservative views. I am a registered dietitian. We believe that eating nutrient-rich foods and physical activity are the way to go for weight management and health; not supplements.
You probably can't find information about pure green coffee bean extract because the research isn't there to support it.
