Meticore You should just include the full name, now it shows up in search results and I doubt they can remove this

The only pill that ever worked for people to lose weight was Amphetamine and we all know the saying; "speed Kills". Robert Heinlein had a saying that he used to use; "TANSTAAFL" There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch which means there is always a catch and diet pills are either dangerous or are just placebos. There will never be a safe pill that will lose the weight for you.

They've taken out a lot of ads that use "scam" and "fraud" in the title and keywords and have bought millions of farmed backlinks. Why would a legit company do this? They wouldn't.

Based on your description, I'm sure it's a scam. The only other items I've seen with similar paid search results were also listed as paid content on the APNews wire (pretty disappointed in them). I wish I could shed more light on how exactly they're accomplishing this dearth of negative information and legit reviews - hopefully someone else will know and be able to share.

I purchased Meticore and took as recommended, but had side effects of immediate digestion issues. I reported it and requested refund which they are refusing to honor. I do not support this company or the product, as the customer service is not honoring their refund policy and the product did not work.

I looked up the address on the bottle (ugh, don’t ask: it was a ‘gift’ from my mother). It lists as The Healthy Back Institute. The BBB has it listed as not accredited with a grade of D-. Apparently their miracle back pain medication didn’t work, and neither did their money back guarantee. Anyone else think it’s possible that Meticore is just repackaged back medicine? Seems on par with their other unscrupulousness.

I stumbled upon the video pop up and started to watch it. I thought it was going to be like some exercise or something, but lo and behold they started mentioning ingredients and I knew it had to be fake. As a sucker for informercials I have fallen to buy those diet pills like carcinoma-something cambodia. With no luck. And then that NuLife pill that was supported by a well-known celeb “doctor” which gave me anxiety for some reason. And again gave me a refund but wanted ALL the bottles back. Even the one I had finished. WEIRD. I am upset because it’s always these cheesy videos and they hook you in by saying they’re gonna tell you soon or in the next couple of minutes. AND THE LIE THAT ITS ONLY LIKE A 2MIN VIDEO. ITS NOT. Mr.Todd Pittman, you are no better than all of those vultures who prey on us desperate people. We know it’s normally not a real thing, but they play on that hope that it is. It’s sick.

Agreed. It took me ages even to find the original post of Patient\_Jacket's review! I have seen the clever marketing tactics online. I have seen the fake websites that sell the fake product. I even came across a video which I thought was promising talking about the 'scam' and pros and cons, but again, it was all about 'just make sure you buy from the official store and results vary for everyone'. Although I do believe the product itself exists, I absolutely cannot believe the integrity of the company as they seem to be removing/restricting genuine reviews from the web. If it's too hard to find genuine reviews about someone's product, simply put, you don't buy it.

I read one article that headlined “negative reviews” but it was crap. Hard sell stuff. No reviews at the end. It said there is no info about the actual manufacturer on the website but that’s ok. I don’t think so. SCAM

u/Archaeia
I just saw this ad on my Facebook. Once I finally found the name of the product, I searched reviews. I had to scroll through 3+ pages to find this site! There's something ominous about a business who has such effective strategies, SEO, etc that they can flood google results so effectively. This should not be allowed or able to happen. I think that if Google was notified, an investigation would occur and this bullshit would be managed somehow.

Holy shyt. They've got spammy subs ALL OVER Reddit, with empty comments and cheesy videos with this same ad trick about"scam", and then talk about the fake websites..WTF is going on with this ish??😳 I only stumbled on this crap because it popped up in my feed, and my fat arse has to snoop everything before buying. This shyt is legit FRIGHTENING in how actual reviews are buried! What kind of spider bot army do they have crawling the web?? Cambridge Analytica, is that your new gig? WTH ever this is, I'm not touching it with a ten foot pole!

This was the first “real” review or conversation I found about this “miracle” product. I did click on the Facebook profiles claiming “amazing” results and every single one was fake. Each had 3-5 friends and were created in November of 2020. Another indicator that this product is 100% scam.

Just watched the gotdamned video. I was really wishing it were true. I looked up for reviews before taking a bite and buying. But found none. I tried youtube for reviews and all was crappy advertising. Then i remembered to google for meticore reddit. This popped. Saved me some money on useless scam. Thanks!

Update:. After several emails and the request to return the empty bottles and original purchase receipt, I did receive the refund. After 90 days, no weigh was lost.

u/BeanBlessed
Wow, so grateful to find this post! I thought I was going nuts too! Found the same thing as others. No real credentials here except the experience of being the gullible one that gets sucked into the ads and then realizing by the end that things that seem to good to be true are and I'll never get my waisted time back lol. I went through honestly at least 15 pages of ads before I found this post and I didn't think it would be legit as I also saw an earlier one on reddit that was promoting these guys. Soooo weird, I agree. I checked it out for my stepdad and I'm not gonna lie, it would have been nice lol It's super disappointing to hear that the LORD's name is used several times to gain them trust from their believing audience as well. But, there were also a lot of inconsistencies with a Bible based faith in the presentation so that pretty much leads one to believe it's only for marketing purposes anyways. Thanks so much for giving some validation-I just wanted to find 1 person that also saw how crazy it was when even the posts about being a scam were pretty much the same info stated in the site and in the video and several links to the "real main site". Although I probably wouldn't understand how they're pulling this off technically I can appreciate the depth at which this is operating based on how at every turn, there they are again. Thanks again for your post, I truly hope it helps some people not get caught in their snare. 😁

I feel like the biggest idiot ever. I watched the cheesy ad. I'm smarter than this! But I felt so desperate! I didn't research before buying. I barely looked it up and saw websotes and fb reviews but briefly looked at it. Right after ordering I looked more and more. And my heart dropped to my stomach. I had been scammed! I have the 3 bottles. Been taking once a day evry morning. I may not lose weight but if the ingredients in it are what they say they are I figured it couldnt hurt. I doubt ill get my $ back because I didnt keep a reciept I dont know if I even got one? And I hate sending stuff back. Especially to a scam company that probably wouldn't refund me anyways :( i just thought their ads were so cheesy because its so new. I've been duped. I could have spent that money on somthing more legit to help me lose weight or organic products from the store.

Hi all, I have bought a 6 month supply of Meticore. I am only at day 3 of taking it but I plan to make myself a guinea pig. No side affects at all so far. I'm have had some weight loss but early days, so could be due to other causes as I've started walking in the last 4 days. I usually have about an 85% healthy diet. I guess I'll see how it goes.

u/helen13864
I ordered this morning and as I keep searching and digging online, I find less useful info. Below the Facebook ad, all the comments were so positive, but somehow none of them had mentioned anything about it being a capsule, and all referred to it as "this"! I really don't know what to trust. Even the YouTube videos are full of people saying the same stuff and asking everyone to buy from the original website! I am so confused now 😕

I am a diseased heart patient with a pacemaker, as a result of taking well advertised drug combination that only your doctor could prescribe. Approved by the FDA. BIG pharma made billions of dollars, until people started dropping dead. My friend had a heart attack stepping out of her shower at age 40. No heart problems diagnosed, but she was taking Phen-fen. I am one of the lucky ones, still alive years later. You wouldn’t like my life in bed. I am an RN. I knew secrets to weight loss was not in a bottle. This is a scam. The ingredients probably won’t hurt you (maybe, allegedly) but you won’t eat all you want, and drop weight like Todd and his wife did in this hour long advertisement. Don’t fall for it.

Supplements won't make you lose weight, so don't waste your money. If something like this worked, then everyone in the US would be at a healthy weight. Instead of looking for a quick-fix solution, focus your research on CICO, healthy meals, and sustainable habits that will help you lose weight and keep it off. This sub is filled with lots of inspiring posts of people who have lost weight simply through eating better and exercising, and it really does work.

I tried it. Did not work. I made no changes as I didn't want to "skew" the results. No weight loss. It's a scam. Which deep down I knew but was hoping that maybe someone found an alternative to good diet and exercise. Nope.

There appear to be different versions of Meticore available for purchase with various ingredients which raises some red flags. Some of these ingredients include [bitter orange (synephrine)](https://www.opss.org/article/synephrine-dietary-supplement-products), PEA, [yohimbe](https://www.opss.org/article/yohimbe-and-yohimbine-dietary-supplement-products), and [caffeine](https://www.opss.org/article/caffeine-performance). These ingredients can be dangerous when taken in substantial amounts, and may be more hazardous when used together.

This is a sponsored review. Read the very bottom. There are affiliate links 🤦🤦🤦 I cannot find any reviews online of this shit that aren't sponsored. That's a huge red flag to me. These people have invested in a serious online presence campaign. It's actually sort of impressive lol Even their sponsored reviews are all over Reddit cause they knew we would come here. They seem to be one step ahead...

I actually ordered mine from the official website and received the box within a week. You have to take it at the same time every single day and not miss a dose. I’ve lost 4 lbs in a week. I started it 7 days ago. I’m just trying to help people out and do more research on it myself. I’ve seen a lot of people complain about it so maybe it doesn’t work for everyone but I see results so far. Maybe it’s not from the meticore, who knows, but I’m def losing weight
