Wild Raspberry Ketone, a real addiction
WILD RASPBERRY KETONE and raspberry ketone, yet another product based on this famous substance. It’s a product that’s everywhere you look, that’s the talk of the town, and that’s ubiquitous on the web.
We were intrigued by the sheer number of discussions about this product, so we decided to test it out and present you with the summary of that investigation in what follows.
Wild Raspberry Ketone, the test…
Presentation & Promises of Wild Raspberry Ketone
Wild Raspberry Ketone is a slimming treatment to be taken once a day. It is often combined with a Daily Power Cleanse, which we recently tested. (read the test of Daily Power Cleanse)
Wild Raspberry Ketone promises you to “get the best body of your life in 4 weeks”.
But that’s not all! Thanks to this weight-loss product, you’ll, according to the official website:
- Melt away excess weight
- Improve your weight control;
- Boost your metabolism;
- Burn fat reserves;
- Reduce your appetite;
- Maintain muscle mass while losing weight;
- Say goodbye to compulsive eating.
Who makes Wild Raspberry Ketone?
The mystery remains, as it does for Daily Power Cleanse, which apparently comes from the same company, since they are presented everywhere in a single pack.
To date, information on the company behind Wild Raspberry Ketone is limited to an address in Las Vegas and a P.O. box in Cyprus, with no company name.
A lack of transparency that does not inspire confidence.
The ingredients of Wild Raspberry Ketone
The base of this supplement is, as its name suggests, raspberry ketone, but it also contains green coffee, as well as a mystery ingredient…
1. RASPBERRY KETONE :
This ingredient is extremely famous for its fat-burning virtues.
In fact, raspberry ketone increases the production of adrenalin and adiponectin, which in turn stimulate lipase, the breakdown of fat.
To find out more about raspberry ketone, read our our blog article dedicated to this ingredient.
Wild Raspberry Ketone is, according to the website, formulated with the highest quality raspberry ketone, and with the strongest concentration. Unfortunately, no information on the product allows us to verify these claims.
2. GREEN COFFEE :
Green coffee is rich in chlorogenic acid, which acts on the metabolism of sugars and fats by delaying their absorption by the intestine, and therefore their assimilation. As a result, fewer calories are stored by the body, and the transformation of sugars into fat is reduced.
Green coffee also acts as an appetite suppressant, fat burner and appetite regulator.
If the Wild Raspberry Ketone sales page is to be believed, green coffee and raspberry ketone are the only two ingredients in this product. However, when we took a closer look at the site, we came across a most interesting piece of information, revealing the famous “mystery ingredient”.
In the conditions of sale contained on this page, we read:
“You acknowledge and declare that you know and understand that the materials on this website include products that contain nicotine”.
Does Wild Raspberry Ketone also contain NICOTINE?
Why doesn’t the manufacturer mention this ingredient clearly?
We’re guessing for the simple reason that nicotine is a highly addictive substance found in cigarettes.
So yes, nicotine is said to have appetite-suppressing, craving-reducing and metabolism-boosting properties. But it’s clear that anyone in their right mind would want to lose weight without endangering their health.
By offering a product containing an addictive substance, and by deliberately concealing the presence of this substance in the composition of its product, the manufacturer of Wild Raspberry Ketone takes the health of consumers to the second degree, which in our view is a flagrant breach of ethics and professionalism?
Scientific studies on Wild Raspberry Ketone
Several studies have demonstrated the virtues of raspberry ketone and green coffee in the weight loss process, but what about the mix and dosage of Wild raspberry Ketone, does it respect the recommendations of these studies?
According to an analysis of various clinical studies, green coffee causes a significant reduction in body weight, compared with placebo groups.
As for raspberry ketone, several studies show its effects on lipolysis and fat cell oxidation. Read the extracts:
The anti-obesity action of raspberry ketone :

and Raspberry ketone increases both fatty acid oxidation and lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes:

However, it is certain that no specific studies have been carried out on the blend contained in Wild Raspberry Ketone.
Side effects Contraindications
The advantages of green coffee are that it allows you to benefit from the slimming virtues of caffeine, without the side effects.
Raspberry ketone also has no side effects.
The absence of exact quantities in Wild Raspberry Ketone means we can’t comment on the presence or absence of side effects.
Finally, nicotine is, as we’ve said, a substance which can be highly addictive, and which also has carcinogenic properties. This is the first time we’ve come across a product containing such a harmful substance in its composition.
Price & Guarantee for Wild Raspberry Ketone
Nothing is clearly indicated on the official page. Only by filling in the order form with your personal details will you have access to an order page where the various prices and packages are displayed.
- 1 month’s treatment, i.e. 1 bottle, will cost you 59€.
- 2 months cure + 1 month free is 99€.
- 3 months’ treatment + 2 free months costs 148€.
The site mentions a 30-day money-back guarantee. But here too, a quick look at the terms and conditions of sale revealed a number of contradictions.
It reads:
“If, for any reason, you were not satisfied with your product, you can return the unused portion of your bottles within 30 days and we will give you a full refund.”
Then further on,
“We cannot accept the return of products that have been opened.
As a result, we believe there is no guarantee of a refund in the event of dissatisfaction.
If, in spite of all the above, you still wish to purchase this product, we invite you to take a close look at the terms and conditions of sale before placing your order.
User testimonials of Wild Raspberry Ketone
There are a large number of people on the web who are dissatisfied with this product.
In addition to the lack of effectiveness on weight loss, there is also talk of overcharging and unjustified amounts, particularly when the order combines Wild Raspberry Ketone and Daily Power Cleanse.
The overall trend in consumer reviews of Wid Raspberry Ketone is negative.
Our opinion on Wild Raspberry Ketone
The lack of transparency concerning not only the manufacturer, but also the composition of this product, obliges us to put Wild Raspberry Ketone in the category of slimming pills to be avoided. The presence of nicotine makes this product harmful to health.
We believe that transparency regarding both the manufacturer’s laboratory and the exact composition of the product is a prerequisite that must be provided to the consumer. The premeditated absence of this information can only be the result of bad faith.

I tested wild Raspberry ketone AND I AM TOTALLY SATISFIED.
The only problem is to be able to contact them, which is just impossible!
In a moment of madness I ordered the two packs Wild Raspberry Ketone and Daily Power Cleanse on June 17.
For me, it was a free trial offer, I just had to pay the postage (about 11 euros in all).
An hour later, pulling myself together, I canceled my order by email.
Their reply gave me two codes to use for returning the goods to a P.O. Box in Cyprus and warned me that my “subscription” (?) was cancelled.
I then wrote that I should not receive these products as I had cancelled my order very quickly, as French law provides for a retraction period. Nevertheless, I received the package posted on June 20?
Again, “they” sent me back the codes. So I phoned. I don’t want to pay the return postage. I threatened to file a complaint, but according to them, if I don’t send the package back, I’ll have to pay for the products. “Read the conditions of sale again, Madame”. Surfing on the Internet, I have the confirmation that they are real swindlers.
Hello
What are the differences between the 3 products you tested with raspberry ketone?
Thank you
Hello Crapouille,
The main difference is in the composition of each product, and where it comes from (its manufacturer).
I invite you to read the tests carried out to compare these raspberry ketone products.
I ordered wild rasberry ketone once and for the last 4 months they have been systematically sending me some.
I can’t find any email address or phone number (the one I called doesn’t answer).
How can I stop these shipments and the corresponding direct debits?
Do you have any addresses or phone numbers to give me? Thank you
Hello Danoushka,
To stop the direct debits, you should contact your bank and cancel your bank card.
Here’s a link to a forum where you can find answers from people who have the same problem as you: http://www.60millions-mag.com/forum/commerce-en-ligne/raspberry-ketone-fresh-t6841-10.html
I hope it can help you stop the bleeding.
They are thieves
I’ve filed a complaint and the bank is now blocking the monthly debits that Phénom HealthKit charges me without my consent.
Caution danger
Hello,
You are absolutely right: If you want to buy this product despite all the above, we invite you to go through the terms and conditions with a fine-tooth comb before placing your order.
On a community site, they say the same thing. Here’s the text:
out at the bottom of the order confirmation page on the Wild Raspberry Ketone site, this is what it says in skinny type (them): “By placing your order, you will be enrolled in our auto-renewal program. This program will allow you to try the product and on the 15th day you will be charged an amount of €79.31. Thereafter, you will receive a large-format copy of the product and will be charged €79.31 (+ shipping) every 30 days until you cancel. […] “Dubious syntax included
Of course we’re talking about that famous wild raspberry ketone.
AND in another text, here’s what an official body announces about this kind of fraudulent practice:
The European Consumer Centre (ECC) is familiar with the practice of selling samples of beauty products at modest prices, disguising a subscription. “We’ve dealt with similar cases, such as Purslim and True Cambogia capsules,” says Julie Seipp, CEC spokeswoman.
Following these cases of hidden subscriptions, this organization specialized in the defense of consumers in dispute with a foreign company in the European Union has published several recommendations on its site.
There you have it, girls, you’ve been warned.
A bon entendeur
Thank you Laetitia for your comment and your thorough research. We do indeed warn our readers about these free trial scams, and prefer to recommend reliable products that practice a transparent pricing policy. Weight loss doesn’t have to mean a melting wallet!
Hello,
Are wild raspberry ketone and raspberry ketone fresh the same product?
Thank you
Hello Jennifer,
No, at first sight these two products are different. We haven’t tested raspberry ketone fresh, so we can’t guarantee that it’s not the same company marketing 2 identical or almost identical products under 2 different names. As a precautionary measure, we advise you to turn to approved raspberry ketone products, such as Raspberry Ketone Plus pills for example.
