Been looking at the ingredients of a certain weightless drug and cannot see anything worrying.

Raspberry Ketones, African mango extract (Irvinga Gabonesis), Acai Fruit, Green tea extract, Resveratrol, Anhydros Caffine, Apple Cider vinegar (Powder), Kelp, Grapefruit (powder), Gelatin, Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium Stearate.

Clearly asking following the devastating news of that poor girl who died having taken Dinitrophenol DNP and died three hours later - doctors told her there was nothing they could do.

What's reservatrol? That's the only thing that sounds chemically

Found in grape skins amongst other places.

Nothing looks risky on there, it just looks like it will do nothing for weight loss (it's a bunch of plant extracts with no weight loss activity, plus some chalk).

I suspect all else was not equal. Did you consume exactly the same food over those few weeks?

So far as I can tell the only active ingredient in them is caffeine.

Maybe - but if it's perfectly safe then no harm taking them otherwise binned.
