About Raspberry Ketones
An aroma compound (rheosmin) from raspberries, marketed for fat loss. Honest read: there is NO standalone human RCT showing any weight or metabolic benefit — the single human study (Lopez 2013) used a 6-ingredient combination, so nothing can be attributed to raspberry ketone alone. All supportive data is rodent or in-vitro at doses far above what oral supplements deliver. Used on mechanistic hope, not clinical evidence.

How much Raspberry Ketones to take
The RDA prevents deficiency. The effective range is what clinical trials used to actually move the outcome.
Effective
100–500
mg
Marketed dose band, NOT an efficacy range — no human evidence of benefit at any oral dose. Present only so the ingredient resolves; the score should stay low on evidence weight.
Clinical evidence
Limited clinical evidence. No standalone human RCT; sole human study was a multi-ingredient combo; rodent/in-vitro only
