I was kindly sent a tub of Raspberry K2 by Forza to review so let's get into it!
Raspberry Ketones are found in, yes you've guessed it, raspberries!
These ketones are supposed to help you use fat for energy, your go to source is normally carbohydrates, then protein then when it really has to decides to crave away at your fat stores.
Raspberry K2 is essentially Raspberry Ketones with a few added extras to help them work more efficiently at using fat for energy rather than fat being stored on your love handles.
The extras are lots of caffeine, vitamin K2 and choline.
I am sure most of you are familiar with caffeine and weight loss but if you are not basically from a weight loss perspective it increases your metabolism and in some people it helps suppress appetite.
Unfortunately for me if food is put in front of me I am going to eat it because I am a pure beast!
Vitamin K2 helps increase skeletal metabolism helping you get stronger bones but also helps your blood clot, helps protect against heart disease and may reduce your chance of prostate cancer by as much as 35%.
Choline helps with liver function, nerve function, helps with energy levels and helps maintain your metabolism.
But does Raspberry K2 work?
Well yes and no in my opinion.
The recommended dose is a hell of a lot of caffeine if you are not used to it with 600mg a day which is slightly more than 6 cups of coffee.
You should be aware of this before taking it and of course consult your doctor is you are at all worried or at the very least do you research.
I adapted to the caffeine pretty quickly, I would say this is because I started taking Raspberry K2 straight off the back of reviewing Muscletronic.
The capsules were easy you take, you just need to have them with a glass of water so no need to worry about eating anything with them.
I do feel they helped my fat loss.
My diet has been diabolical for about a month and a half, partly because my mood has been terrible so instead of hitting the gym and addressing the issue I decide it was best to eat like a beast.

I don't think the Raspberry K2 was the reason my mood was so crappy, I believe I was a bit deficient in vitamin due the tradition British summer this year, I started supplementing and my mood improved and the sun came out.By this time my birthday had rolled round so I thought funk it, I am having a break from blogging,realign my chakras and binge on Iceland buffets and Echo Falls.
I feel the Raspberry K2 minimised the fat gain and I actually lost an inch on my waist despite my bad behaviour.
This does not mean you should rely on supplements to get to you fat loss goals and to demonstrate this here is a picture of me this time last year and me now.
My final thoughts on Raspberry K2 are that if you are already living a healthy lifestyle and just want a final little flourish then give them a go.
If you are out of breath from reading this post you should probably have a look at your lifestyle before pinning all of your hopes on a supplement.
