What You Should Know
The manufacturers of Proactol tell us that it is a daily supplement which will help reduce your body weight. They say that it will burn off to 28% of your fat intake and also reduce your food cravings. They go on to tell us that their product not only helps you lose weight, but that those who have taken Proactol have also experienced greater joint flexibility, lower cholesterol, and higher energy levels. Sounds like a miracle! The main active ingredient is Proactol is a patented fiber complex known as Neopuntia.
Ingredients
The main active ingredient in Proactol is a patented complex called Neopuntia, which is derived from the Optuntia Ficus India Cactus. Optunia Ficus India is also more commonly known as Prickly Pear, and has since been cultivated to grow in other climates.
Product Features
There is a very detailed official website for Proactol. It can be ordered directly on line for a price of $89.95 for one hundred and twenty tablets. When you order Proactol you also receive a free toning belt. The official website also states that there is a one hundred percent money back guarantee. The manufacturers advise that three to four Proactol tablets should be taken after each meal. They also say that those who have kidney disease, are breast feeding, or are taking medication for high cholesterol, should seek medical advice before taking Proactol.

Advantages

Disadvantages
- Prickly pear, when taken too often, can cause stomach problems.

- Proactol does not seem to contain any unique proprietary ingredients that set it apart from other weight loss supplements.
Conclusion
There are a number of things in favor of this product. For starters, there is a money back guarantee and a very detailed website full of information. The official website also presents us with the results of clinical trials that do seem to indicate that the product will help result in a certain amount of weight loss. However there are other products on the market which will also help users to achieve this weight loss. The question we are concerned with is whether Proactal is actually superior to other weight loss products on the market. Considering that the manufacturers recommend taking three or four pills after each meal, undertaking a full Proactol course could become tedious. We also have some hesitations about consuming that quantity of prickly pear essence, since this can result in negative health effects in some users.
My wife bought Proactol for me as a gift. I tried to get a hold of customer support to get an account so I could follow THEIR rules for the money back guarantee. This is what happened. These people will find any way possible NOT to give the money back for an over priced product that is actually making me gain weight! I am 5′7″, was 210 lbs. I am now 216lbs in 2 weeks and it is tearing up my stomach . I have always been athletic, but enough about me, here is the emails back and forth with Proactol customer support…
Hello Dan V****,
Thank you for your enquiry.
I am sorry to advise that I am unable to give you your wife’s login details.
This is due to Date Protection.
I can also advise that because you are taking your wife’s Proactol you will not be able to claim under the money back guarantee.
I hope that this information has been helpful.
Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
