SlimScience Garcinia Cambogia

At first glance, SlimScience looks like an extremely professional, high quality garcinia cambogia extract. They tout being the ones behind many leading health supplements that are featured at GNC. However, we didn’t just say “Ok, wow, sounds good to me…” You should know us better than that by now. Especially if you stay updated with our review chart.

Instead, we spent a little time going through the site and trying to see what’s what in regards to the common criteria that we rate garcinia supplements on. In the end, they actually don’t stack up well at all. Keep reading to find out…

Super Tricky Free Trial Gimmick

SLIMTRICKS

 

Gotta admit. We were surprised that a company seemingly so professional would resort to such tactics. But that makes you realize that you can’t just take people’s word for what they say. On the front page, there is no order button. The only option you have is to see if you “qualify” for a 14-day free trial.

This is just a sneaky marketing trick playing on your subconscious. You see, your brain will automatically be semi-curious to see if you qualify. You’re tempted and drawn into filling out the form. Of course, everyone qualifies. Every single person who fills out that inquiry form will qualify. They just want it to seem like you’re “lucky!”.

Click the little terms link in the fine print at the bottom of the site and have a little read. You’ll find out that if you don’t cancel in time, you’re locked into an auto-ship subscription program that will ship you a new supply of pills each and every month. And guess what? This is the most expensive HCA extract we’ve found yet.

**Update: The above information was written when we reviewed the page that sits pretty at the top of the paid search results advertising area on Google. That ad leads to a special trial offer. However, we’ve recently went back to look at their main site and guess what? If you order directly from their main site, one bottle will cost you about $15 less than if you fell for the trial offer!

Seriously? Crazily Over-Priced Product

We always warn that garcinia extract should never run more than $30 or so. It’s just a simple fact of the matter that it does NOT cost that much to produce a quality garcinia supplement that’s all natural and effective. But some companies mark prices way up to make as much money as they can as fast as they can. And SlimScience has marked it up on beyond belief. For a single bottle, you will pay $74.98! Yep, so if you don’t cancel your “trial” in time, you’ll be billed $74.98 then billed that monthly.

**Update: If you go straight to their site to order a single bottle, you pay $59.99

Important Ingredient Information Completely Missing

Any supplier of a garcinia cambogia product should clearly show you how much HCA it has. Why? Any good one will have at least 50% HCA. If it doesn’t, then it’s not going to work like it should. HCA is the vital ingredient that makes it so powerful. But SlimScience doesn’t tell you how much HCA is in it. In fact, they don’t show you the label at all. They want you to take their word for what’s in it. Speaking of ingredients, they have quite a few extra ingredients. They may have been shown beneficial on their own, but just how extensively have they been tested when combined with HCA extract? Who knows. They don’t tell you about that part.

**Update: This information was completely missing on the trial offer page. They do show the label on their main site if you go directly to it. However, there’s still no mention on the percentage of HCA this supplement contains compared to other ingredients.

Get Ready to Jump through Hoops for Returns

They say there’s a money back guarantee and there may well be. But upon reading the fine print, here’s what we found out for you.

If you are on their auto-ship subscription and decide to return the product, you can do so even if it’s been opened. But you’ll have to get a return authorization number from them, pay for the shipment back to the company and hope it arrives in time.

If you buy a single bottle (although we couldn’t find an option to do that), then you can NOT return an opened package. It must be unopened and you still have to get a return authorization number as well as pay for shipping the product back.

Conclusion

Don’t fall for illusions. This is an extremely professional site that would easily fool others, but we know that since you’re here doing your own research you won’t fall for it. The infamous free trial gimmick to get you into a subscription, the ridiculously high price, keeping important ingredient information from you then making you jump through hoops to get a refund? It’s pretty clear… skip SlimScience, save money and deal with someone more reputable.

We  understand how tricky it can be to find a reputable supplier. It’s difficult to tell the good from the bad a lot of the time. But we really hope that these reviews and the time we spend to dig into these different suppliers will help you make the best decision for you.

garciniabanner270613As for a supplier that we can comfortably recommend? Yes, there is one! Sadly, only one at the moment. It’s sold by AlivebyNature.org and it’s the only place you’ll find this garcinia extract made by NewLifeBotanicals. Well, aside from Amazon where they recently decided to start selling.

This product meets all of the important criteria that Dr. Oz recommends:

  • It’s all natural (always a good thing)
  • It clearly provides 60% HCA
  • Continues to receive amazing feedback
  • Has 600mg per capsule
  • You don’t get ripped off with it being full of fillers
  • You get the most amazing money back guarantee we’ve seen (no questions asked, no return authorizations, nothing!)
