Pros: low cost, working for me.
Cons: Not the right choice if you are after rapid weight loss.
Overall: Being a massive sweet tooth ( i am talking craving cakes and buscuits for breakfast) i decided to give these a go. I found them at the local priceline chemist so they are very easy to find.
I take one first thing in the morning, lunch and then after dinner. I find the later you take these at night the effects still seem to kick in in the morning, which works for me.
I did start taking a double dose in the morning for the first week to kickstart, this seemed to work very well for me, not sure if it's the right thing to do but seemed to have no ill effects, only good ones.
I have noticed if I forget to take a tablet at lunch then i am not craving sweets again until about 4-5pm.
The great thing about these tablets is that if they don't work at least you haven't forked out a fortune as they are only around 12-15 dollars a bottle.
So i have been taking these for about two months and i have lost about 5kg. I have been eating healthier also. Give them a try at least.

Pros: Inexpensive (considering it's just vitamins & minerals)
Cons: Didn't work for me, didn't stop the cravings.
Overall: I'm a 4'11" who is currently 20kg overweight due to my sweet-tooth cravings (seriously hardcore sweet-tooth) and sedentary lifestyle.
I tried this product for a week and it did not do any wonders for me. That said, it didn't stop the sweet cravings and I still feel hungry. I didn't lose any weight at all. I wonder why I am the only odd one out of the reviewers who gave fantastic 5stars review for this, hmmm?...Anyway, I'm not that mad since it's not that expensive...but, I was so disappointed, hoping to get the same positive result as others...maybe it's just not for me...or maybe, reading the ingredients, it's just a bunch of vitamins and minerals, so it could just be the placebo effects which of course, will not work for skeptics like me...so I stopped taking it, start eating smaller meals, went to the gym instead. I guess there's simply no short cut to this. To non-believers, stay away from this, might as well fork out a little bit more for something stronger and proven scientifically to work. Good luck!

Pros: Inexpensive, felt a change straight away, can be found at chemists and supermarkets
Overall: I have been using this product for about 2 weeks now and I have noticed a difference in my eating habits.
I take around 3 a day and I feel like I have stopped craving high sugar foods. I feel like it has stopped that horrible bored hunger you get for junk food. I have also recently changed my exercise and eating habits before taking the supplement so it is more of a "helper" then a total weight loss solution. I have read online that this is a great vitamin for those who have PCOS (which I do).
Overall I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to eat healthier and help break their sugar addiction. It is around $20 for a bottle of 60 tablets.

Pros: A very simple and convenient tablet that can be consumed either once or twice a day. Reputable brand, worth the price you pay and you will SEE results!
Cons: Nothing overall, perhaps a better packaging like the lid in particular.
Overall: This is probably the best vitamin capsule I have taken! I love that is simple and easy to consume with a price that won’t leave the wallet empty. I was overweight for about a year, so I sought to find a product that would help reduce those nasty sugar cravings. With this product, it keeps my cravings at bay and at times I never really had the urge to binge or overeat. I have currently lost 15kg (and continuing to lose) in a period of 4 months. I highly recommend this product to anyone who helps need that slight push in their everyday lifestyle, and you WILL see results! Patience, endurance and time is the key. I will continue to buy this product in the future. Perhaps they could have made the packaging a bit different. Instead of the flip top, possibly have a twist-style packaging? I encourage anyone to try this fantastic product! In addition, I would highly recommend diabetics to try this! It is so much cheaper and effortless to consume rather then having to deal with the side effects diabetics undergo at times.

Pros: It's natural and contains a lot of vitamins and minerals needed daily
Cons: No medical testing or conclusive studies have been done one this product, there is nothing to support the manufacturers claims. Coupled with a multi-vitamin it could result in too much of some vitamins and minerals. There is nothing to support its safety during pregnancy.
Overall: It's just another weight loss support supplement with nothing to back it up - next week it will be something else. I will trust my doctor on this one until some conclusive studies have shown its benefits rather than trusting the manufacturer who only wants to make more money.

Blackmores Sugar Balance has been formulated to help:
- balance sugar levels in the body
- balance the appetite and reduce tiredness due to low blood sugar
- reduce cravings for sweet foods that can develop due to dieting
- replace nutrients needed for energy production and appetite control that are lost due to increased exercise
- support the production of energy from the metabolism of food

Can this product be taking when you have type 1 diabetes?
tiarne asked on Nov 5, 2011
yes, though its much cheaper and really just as good to take chromium tablets from health food store and cinnamon powder sprinkled or cooked in food

Hi there, I have been taking Blackmores sugar balance for a couple of months now. I am finding that without much effort I have lost a little weight. Do you think these tablets help with weight loss? thanks
Bruce asked on Jun 26, 2011
Yes I do because he chromium in this product reduces strain on your pancreas, in other words your body copes better with the sugars and starches you eat; and it also reduces craving for sugars and starches - these are high energy foods and so encourage weight gain.
If you worry about sugar and you pancreas add half a teaspoon of cinnamon to your cereal or buttered toast (in which case sprinkle with sugar substitute as well) Stevia or Xylotol are the healthiest sugar substitutes
Good wishes,
