Join Cameron English and Dr. Chuck Dinerstein on Episode 154 of the Science Dispatch podcast as they discuss:

New data suggests they’re largely safe and may modestly support weight loss when paired with an overall healthier diet, but they’re no magic fix, just tools whose benefits depend entirely on how, and why, we use them.
