Trusted Reviews, News,and Diet Advice.
Trusted Reviews, News,Leptigen is a metabolism boosting diet pill containing several patented and branded ingredients, that claims to help you lose 4 times the weight than with just diet and exercise alone. Dietspotlight has since discontinued the sale of its product, Leptigen. Dietspotlight Burn TS replaced Leptigen.
Pros
Cons
Their scientific formula says that it will help to support fat loss, diminish weight-loss plateaus, boost metabolism, and control your blood sugar levels. In this review, we will find out if the hype over Leptigen is to be believed!
After looking over the information we collected, we’ve come to the conclusion that Leptigen may help to aid weight loss, as well as being one of the safer diet pills available on the market. In the past when we’ve reviewed this product there were no ingredient quantities, something we are glad to see now. A bit of transparency goes a long way.
On the official website, the manufacturers state that there will be no side effects from taking this supplement, however not everybody reacts the same way and you never know if you will have side effects.
the monthly cost is around $90 if you purchase the “free” sample or the 90-day supply. Otherwise, you’ll be paying even more at $109.95 for a single bottle. Unfortunately, this is an incredibly expensive product, and whilst some may think it is worth the money, according to some user reviews it doesn’t always work.
This could also be an issue if you’ve ordered the most expensive option, and there is a possibility that you won’t get a refund if you’ve “overly used” the product. That being said, it is always reassuring when there is a money-back guarantee and one that will last 120-days is very good.
Leptigen is manufactured by a company of the same name and claims to be a metabolism-boosting supplement that contains a blend of four ingredients, two of which are branded. They are Meratrim and ChromeMate. Leptigen have stated that their researchers:
Left no stone unturned in their quest for the most-effective, safe and sensible weight-loss formula.
It definitely sounds promising to us, but with all diet pills, they have to have proof that it does all this.
When it comes to taking Leptigen it is advised that you take two doses per day, at least 30 minutes before meals. A single dose is one pill.
Even though Leptigen are based in the United States, they are able to ship internationally and are very transparent when it comes to company details, something we always like to see. It shows they have nothing to hide. You are able to call them by phone with any questions you have, or you can email them using a form online. The address they have on the official site for returning products is based in Coral Gables, Florida.
The manufacturers of Leptigen claim that it works in the following way:
By using Thermogenic and lipolysis-inducing agents, Leptigen provides an effective, safe way to assist your body in releasing stored fat and increasing metabolic rate in order to burn fat.
It is said to be effective for both men and women in regards to meeting their weight loss goals. They say that’s it is best to pair Leptigen with these recommendations:
- Eat a healthy whole-foods diet, including lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats and fish, and low-fat dairy products
- Drink at least 8 glasses of water each day
- Eliminate empty calorie junk foods from your diet, including sugar-free soft drinks
After looking at the ingredients for Leptigen, we can say that there is definitely potential there for it to become an effective weight loss aid. We like that they have posted the ingredient quantities on the site so people will know what is effective, and could make a noticeable difference to the body’s metabolic rate.
It doesn’t seem that there will be a lot of side effects that come with this product, and if there are any they will only affect those sensitive to them.
With a combination of proven ingredients, superb customer service and a 60-day money-back guarantee, Phentaslim is making big waves in the diet world.

Leptigen only contains four ingredients in the formula, Meratrim, ChromeMate, caffeine, and green tea leaf extract. In the FAQ section of the site, there is an ingredients label showing the ingredients and the amount per serving in one capsule. This is the only place on the website where we can find the quantities. A lot of products say their ingredients are clinically tested, but never actually provide the proof. With Leptigen that isn’t the case, as each ingredient has a page dedicated to explaining what the ingredient does and a link to the clinical study.
Let’s take a closer look at them:
On the official website, the manufacturers state that there will be no side effects from taking this supplement, however not everybody reacts the same way and you never know if you will have side effects. The following are just an example of what you could experience.
Consuming caffeine can lead to these side effects for certain people:
As green tea also contains caffeine the likelihood of experiencing these effects can rise for those sensitive to the ingredients.
Chromemate contains chromium, which can lower blood sugar levels. If consumers already have very low blood sugar levels and take this product, it could lead to them feeling dizzy, lightheaded, and even fainting. If you are diabetic it is strongly advised that you consult with your doctor before purchasing this product.
Meratrim is the only ingredient in this product that doesn’t seem to cause side effects when used in appropriate doses as seen here.
We would have preferred to see more independent reviews, or even an unfiltered and unedited review system on the manufacturer’s site. Does the fact they don’t have this mean they’re not confident in the product?
We are receiving lots of customers reporting feeling they have been scammed purchasing Leptigen, here are some examples:
They are a scam. I received product and rang to cancel any more shipments and you can never reach them as they keep saying the office is closed even though it is in their working hours that they state in their phone message. They charged me for another shipment and I haven’t received. I have had my bank change my account so future payments cannot be taken out
LEPTIGEN IS A SCAM. THEY HAVE SLICK PROFESSIONAL ADS! You think you are dealing with a professional company. Signed up for the trial and immediately emailed to cancel the autoship after I got the product. Low and behold about 2 weeks later they charged the autoship to my account.
The official website boasts numerous testimonials for Leptigen from customers, however, we are always wary of this as they are selected to show the product in it’s best light. Any reviews that happened to be negative or mentioned side effects would not be shown on the site. Here is a selection of the reviews:
I have been taking Leptigen for three months and just started to notice that I am experiencing a difference in the way my clothes are fitting. I take the Leptigen according to the directions and have had no side effects. After reading other testimonials, I am excited to witness further reductions. I have had no headaches, jitters or sleeplessness like other products that I have tried. This is by far the best non-prescriptive product that I have taken. Leptigen lives up to all the claims that have been expressed by others.
My name is Cheryl and I am 57 years old and have been using Leptigen for a month and a half. I am a night snacker and using Leptigen has helped me. What was surprising to me was it really reduced the craving to eat and did not have the usual jittering you would have expected with a supposed “diet” supplement.
I love Leptigen! I started using the product a few weeks ago and have been so happy with the results! I have always been someone who can lose weight but keeping it off is the biggest challenge for me. I have always had to deal with cravings and being “hungry” and having tried many different things and nothing has worked until now. I noticed right away that I was losing my “evening” cravings when I began Leptigen and I am hopeful that not only will I lose the weight I need to but that I will be able to keep it off as well! Thank you Leptigen, you are a product that really delivers!
We were able to find some independent reviews on Amazon where the product is being sold. There were only 7 posted altogether, here are a few of them:
In my opinion, this is the biggest fraud since Don Lapre was alive.
My friend tried the rest of my bottle and couldn’t agree more. However if a company gets a few thousand people to spend 200 bucks before reviews come around, they’ve laughed all the way to the bank.
Would be better if the “company” would post its basic ingredients on the advertisements for all to see
I was excited to try Leptigen after reading great press about it. The product’s FAQs advised that thyroid patients get their doctor’s okay before using. My doctor cleared me for trying it, but unfortunately, after taking Leptigen for two weeks, I added 8 pounds to my small frame. After doing further research, I read that the product may inhibit the absorption of thyroid medication. The sellers processed my refund in a timely fashion as promised; however, I’m still trying to drop the weight I gained on the product. I would recommend checking out the product if you don’t take thyroid replacement medication.
Didn’t seem to do anything for me
When it comes to figuring out if this product works based on the reviews our answer is that we’re not sure. How do we know if the testimonials are true to their word? Some would say that this product needs to be taken on faith, but if it doesn’t work you could be out of pocket if you don’t meet the requirements for returning the product.
The manufacturers of Leptigen do offer a money-back guarantee of 120 days, which is quite a lot if you ask us. This only applies if you purchased the supplement from the official site. Third party suppliers will have different return policies.
They have outlined the policy by stating:
All we ask is that you follow a few reasonable guidelines:
- Products must have been purchased directly from www.leptigen.com (our website or 800 numbers). We cannot accept returns of products purchased from other retail outlets or affiliate partners. Please follow the return policy agreed upon through purchasing through the respective affiliate partner.
- Products purchased through www.leptigen.com must be returned within 120 days of order date.
- Please call our customer service department at +1 800 555 3951 to obtain an RMA number, required with your return, include a copy of your receipt (or a note with your order #, name, email address, phone number) and your reason for returning the product(s)
- We cannot accept returns on overly used products.
- Original shipping and handling charges are non-refundable (if applicable).
We’re not sure what “overly used products” mean, but we can only assume it means more than one used bottle. It is always best to clarify this by contacting the customer service team.
Leptigen offer three options for purchasing their product on the official website. All the options come with 5 free gifts.
The first option is a 30-day supply of Leptigen at $109.95.
The most popular option is a 60-day of Leptigen at $199.90, however as there is an offer on it is usually $219.90.
The best value option they offer is a 90-day supply of Leptigen at $269.85, with the usual price being $329.85. This works out at $89.95 per bottle.
Leptigen is a very expensive supplement, which is why you need to be 100% sure that it will work in the way it is supposed to.
You are able to pay with a credit card and PayPal.
The Leptigen supplement itself may be fine, and with the right diet and exercise may work. The problem is if you opt for the so-called “free trial”, you will likely find it difficult to cancel and end up paying more for the supplement than first realised. Many customers who contacted us feel cheated when signing up for the trial.
If you go for buying without the free trial you will be paying over $100 per bottle, one of the most expensive diet pills on the market. Considering the options available and the poor track record of the company, we would suggest looking elsewhere and avoid buying Leptigen.
Overall, we do not recommend Leptigen to our readers.
Taking Leptigen too close to bedtime may cause insomnia for some individuals, due to the Caffeine content of the capsule.
Other side effects are possible, such as headaches, increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, heart palpitations, increased urination, dehydration, jitteriness, and dizziness.
It may do, but it’s unlikely to be as good as claimed!
One of the ingredients, Meratrim, has shown weight loss potential in a clinical study. Subjects that had undertaken a 2000 kcal diet with moderate exercise, consuming a daily dose of 800mg, lost a reasonable amount of weight and saw a decrease in BMI.
The other ingredients are either inconclusive or contain too few ingredients to actually exert much, if any, weight loss benefits.
This is a very expensive supplement, as the monthly cost is around $90 if you purchase the “free” sample or the 90-day supply. Otherwise, you’ll be paying even more at $109.95 for a single bottle.
US shipping is typically free, but International customers will be paying fairly hefty shipping fees!
It’s not immediately obvious who actually makes this supplement, but after some digging, we can see the manufacturer is Green Bracket LLC, a company based in Florida, USA.
The company have been trading since 2008 and have been behind a few supplements such as Leptigen, Pronabolin and the now discontinued Avesil.
The company have previously fallen foul of the Florida penal system when a civil matter was taken to court.

They have a contact form on the official website, although replies are fairly slow.
There is also a telephone number available during core business hours of 8am to 7pm (Eastern Time), with reduced hours over the weekend (10am-3pm Eastern Time).
Although Leptigen state that they have a 15-day “free trial”, you pay $3.95 for the shipping and handling.
Importantly, if you DO NOT cancel within 15 days of ordering then you will be charged $89.95 + $5.95 shipping for another bottle, and again each month until further notice. Here are the terms:
…you will be enrolled in our Leptigen Member Program, where we automatically send you a one-month supply of Leptigen in 15 days and every 30 days thereafter for just $89.95 plus $5.95 shipping and handling.

After using this product for a month I was unable to sleep. Before I could stop the auto shipments, I received two more bottles. The company will not take them back or give me a refund. NOW they want me to buy the cafiene free Leptigen. Why didn’t they tell me about this before when I complained? This is a scam. Don’t buy this product.
Do not sign up!
I only ordered a free sample and now they are taking over £75 from my account.
Do NOT do it.
Don’t sign up!
I only ordered a free sample and now they are trying to take large sums of money from my account.
Don’t do it.
I ordered the “free” trial of Leptigen over a month ago and still haven’t received it, but they charged me $96 for a second bottle already. The customer service at this company is appalling – I was given a fake phone number to call that had one too many numbers in it and when I did get through, the guy was eating the entire time. If I had the power to reach through the phone to smack him in the mouth I would have.
They state on their website that they have a 120 money back guarantee, but they won’t give my money back, even though I haven’t received anything.
i just finished canceling a membership i didnt even know i had. i remember paying for the “free trail” and another bottle for just 20 something bucks. then i was being charged 96 dollars a month for a bottle that i didnt agree to buying. When i called to get my money back, they said i had signed up for a membership and that to cancel future payments i would now have to pay 65 dollars on top of the 96 i just unwillingly paid. YEY LEPTIGEN!
This is the worst product and company to work with. I got violently ill taking just one of the pills, I felt like I was poisoned, I threw up for over an hour. I was sicker than I have ever been in my life. They wouldn’t refund any money, even on a completely unopened bottle.
I want to,cancel my order of Leptigen and have tried numerous times on the number given at various times, weekdays, weekends, night times and all I ever get is a recorded message saying the office is closed at this time and please try again later when one of our consultants will be available to,help you. But times are never specified, this has been going on for over three months now, so Imwil be visiting my bank next week to,provide them with written advice that these payments are to be cancelled immediately and no longer to be withdrawn from my account.
FRAUDS! Do not go for the free trial, you are entering into a autoship monthly payment that is impossible to cancel. Customer service very friendly and helpful but that’s where it ends. They lie! Nothing will be stopped even the amount of phone calls you have with them. I don’t mind paying for a product I receive and can send back for a refund but so far this hasn’t happened but yet more payments off my credit card and so called shipping orders to my email address!
Just wanted to say regarding everyone’s opinion that it is a scam… if you read the terms and conditions that you check “I agree” to, you would know you were being enrolled in a subscription. I just called to cancel mine and was on the phone for less than 1 minute, and he asked zero questions as to why, and did not try to convince me to stay with any other “offers.” Maybe I just got a lazy rep who didn’t feel like arguing with anyone, but I was impressed given everything I’d read about how hard it is to cancel.
What number did you call?
Lucky you! I had to repeatedly and calmly say, “No thank you. I would like to cancel.” for 5 minutes. 😀
I ordered the trial bottle first, it came in the mail with no directions on dosage to take, just a bottle in the box. Then I noticed my bank account was being charged from liptegen. $3.50, .45cents, I called to cancel the next month $95 out of my account then lesser amounts all under liptegen. Called to cancel again was told it was already cancelled, then got billed again. Not sure if I trust what I have. the third bottle came with an insert with dosage directions. No refund was offered when I called a third time. Spoke with a rep from my bank, no more liptigen fees will come from my account.
I just cancelled my free trial due to being newly diagnosed with cancer. Justin answered the phone immediately after the standard “a rep will be with you shortly” message. He brought up my account , cancelled me and stated he’d send a confirmation e-mail. Easy peasy. No hard sell ,no guff. Pleasant and fast. Tahnk you Justin.
I ordered the Leptigen sample, read the reviews on how it was a scam, so I called customer service (1-800-555-3951) to cancel my trial. The paper that came with my sample said something about being able to extend the trial, so I asked what that was about. What that is is giving me another week, and they are sending me another week’s worth of Leptigen capsules. So if you’re going to do the trial, you can call to get an extra week and more capsules.
The operator said something about $287.90 (not sure if that was monthly) but then said I could sign-up for automatic payments for $95.90 but there was a 3 month supply I could get for $136.00, and that one doesn’t come with a subscription. The operator also said that, if I was not happy at the end of the 90 days, I could get a full refund but if I lost weight and was happy, they would appreciate a testimonial. I haven’t started taking the capsules yet but it’s good knowing that if it doesn’t work, I an get my money back.
It was really easy to get a hold of customer service, which I was afraid would be the case, because of the bad reviews I’d read. I’m going to cut-and-paste this to other places too because I don’t know if the product works, but the customer service is good and it seems really easy to cancel.
I tried the trial but was under the impression that there was no obligation. I recieved the autoship bottle and charged for it. Called the company and was told they would credit 25$ ( I would still owe 75$ for the bottle ) and they would cancel the auto ship. It is no where in the info I signed up with or on the website that you would be enrolled in an autoship program. The invoice with the bottle gives no contact number or way to call – had to go to the website. I feel like this is a scam and you do not know that you are signing up for auto ship. They assure me that I am now un-enrolled. We will see.
I received the free sample and then sent an email to cancel, I received confirmation by return saying it was cancelled, this was followed up by a sales email that also confirmed my account was cancelled and no further monies would be taken, and the haven’t. Found it very straight forward.
CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME THE EMAIL ADDRESS AS I WANT TO CANCEL MINE.
Do not deal with this company, they are scammers. When you sign up for the free sample you are authorizing monthly deliveries and credit card payments of $127.95 for Leptigen. Their website is very good at tricking you into this contract which you need to cancel before you even have the free sample. These people treat customers like fools. A good lesson learnt in future check online reviews before going ahead with any online purchases.
I was able to stop the auto payments, and was send some free samples afterward, but I can tak the stuff… stomach ache then diarrhea… not wonder you lose weight~
Terrible !!!! Didn’t even get a chance to finish the first bottle to know whether or not it even works for me and just got charged 95 for the second bottle. I haven’t even received the 2nd bottle.
Terrible !!!! Didn’t even get a chance to finish the first bottle to know whether or not it even works for me and just got charged 95 for the second bottle. I haven’t even received the 2nd bottle.
Is a scam… I can’t believe they are not getting sued for this . They are not transparent with their costumers .
I tried leptigen twice the first time I was vomiting had cramping spazim in my back and abdomen and spent all night on the toilet unable to move from it whilst vomiting!
I thought I’d try it once more just to be sure it was the leptigen and what do you know same thing happened again both times I was scared and thought I should go to the hospital
I just received my free sample yesterday in the mail. I was very scared that I was going to have problems cancelling it, but I just called the number that was listed in my confirmation email and, Ray, the guy that answered, actually gave me an additional free sample, plus a free sample of the cleanse/probiotic and told me that my new cancel date was April 28th and to call him directly with any questions or if I need to cancel.
I decided to do the free trial for this product. I wasn’t even three days in, when I noticed on my Paypal account that I was charged $95 from Leptigen. I immediately called Paypal and told them that I didn’t authorize that transaction and they refunded me my money. Which by the way, Paypal will ALWAYS take care of their customers from any unauthorized transactions. Two days later, I received another Leptigen bottle. I didn’t open up the package, but knew it was from them because it had their name on the recipient. I immediately called Customer Service, and I told them I would send them back their package and that it’s still sealed in the envelope. They said that that wasn’t necessary. They did say that they couldn’t refund me my money, but did cancel the subscription. Little did they know that I had that taken care of already. I had no issues contacting them, and I recommend to ALWAYS read the fine print.
They told me that too.. I was on the phone with them until they bended and told me they will give me back the money , only after I mentioned lawsuit and bad reviews . They tried to sell me more stuff while i was on the phone resolving this issue .
I will say this….When you sign up for the free trial, it definitely states that after 15 DAYS you will be charged for the subscription. Read The Disclaimers Thoroughly!!!! And Cancel in Time!!!
Has anyone said how the company got your credit card information? If you did not give it to them then that is above fraud, that is theft. If you gave it to them, well, let the buyer beware. You should have heard the bus horn in the distance.
So sorry I got these pills
I got it last night for the free trial, and I cancelled it this morning with no issues, but I hope it stays that way. I got a cancellation confirmation email, and they’re still sending the trial bottle. I’ll try to keep you guys updated for here on out.
What number did you call because the number on the webpage does not work.
(844)392-7885 that the number I’ve used to call them up .
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT AND SAVE YOURSELF A HEADACHE! If you signed up for the free trial beware they will be drafting from your account within 14 days. Call your credit card fraud department right away and have them call the company on three way. This is the only thing. That worked for me. I had tried several times to fight the charge on my own and nothing worked until I called them with the bank on the line. Do not give up! Don’t let them get away with stealing your money!!
I sign up for the free trial and didn’t even get to use the whole product to get a feel on how good it was. I then got another shipment in the mail & was confused as to why. I tried to call Leptigen to find out what was going on and they were always stated it was out of business hours even though it was not. To cut to the end. I’ve cancelled my cards and asked my bank to chase my money back for this overpriced product and one why I just wanted to try a sample and was unaware I had signed up for a subscription. They are now accusing me of shop lifting in an email sent to my back which is abhorrent. These people are not to be trusted.
I have been using the trial version and it does seem to be working. I was going to cancel because of the price and I emailed the company to do so. I received an email back that I had to call but that they would give me an extra week to try it. I called today and it was easy to reach the company and talk to a real person. They offered three months for $150. I couldn’t decide so they offered to send and additional free sample and another 30 days to see results. They will hold the promotional price if I decide to purchase next month. Overall I am happy with the product and customer service and I think I will make a purchase if my weight continues to drop.
I sent for trial of Leptigen. I’ve been trying to cancel this for months now as ridiculous amounts of money coming out my bank. I’ve messaged them they said nothing else would be taken from bank but they are still taking it, it’s causing so much stress I don’t know what else to do.
Marie do you have their return address?
It seems to be a scam; the order page has no information at all to indicate that you are signing up for a subscription, and no information about how to cancel. There is no customer account and no way to learn what will be shipped, what has been shipped, or at what price. You simply get charged without warning. I advise contacting your credit card company to dispute the charge and get this canceled. When the credit card company intervenes you will get customer service and the problem will get resolved.
