Will Calocurb make me lose weight?

How many capsules are in a bottle?

Each bottle contains 90 capsules, typically a month’s supply at up to four capsules per day. Many users adjust their daily intake (1–4 capsules) to suit their needs.

Is Calocurb safe to take?

Calocurb's ingredients are GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) and include only Amarasate®, rosemary leaf extract, and vegetable oil. It’s not tested for use by anyone under 18 or for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Always consult your healthcare provider if you have concerns or medical conditions.

When will I start noticing results?

Most people feel reduced hunger and cravings in the first week after following the Calocurb onboarding protocol. Individual results can vary so if you have any questions or concerns, email us on hello@calocurb.com. Consistent, daily use alongside balanced meals and exercise will produce the best outcomes.

How long does a Calocurb capsule last when taken?

The effects of Calocurb are typically felt within an hour. Most users feel Calocurb’s effects for several hours, helping them manage snacking and portion sizes.

What are the potential side effects of Calocurb?

In clinical studies, Calocurb showed a low incidence of side effects when starting on Calocurb, and no ongoing side effects . Mild patient discomfort (e.g., loose stools) can occur in the first 24–72 hours as your body adjusts to the levels of GLP-1 you are now naturally activating. Gradually increasing your dose over a number of days helps minimize any discomfort.

Is Calocurb FDA approved?

By law, the FDA does not approve dietary supplements. But, the FDA does regulate both dietary supplements and dietary ingredients. Calocurb follows "current Good Manufacturing Practice" (cGMP) regulations requiring that manufacturers evaluate their products through testing identity, purity, strength, and composition.

What if I don't notice a difference in appetite when taking Calocurb?

Everyone has a different physiological makeup, so some people will experience the biological affect of Amarasate® differently. If you are one of the few who have started taking Calocurb and are not seeing any difference in appetite simply try increasing your capsules by 1x daily. If this is not working for you after a couple of days please get in touch with us to speak to a Calocurb team member, sometimes all it takes is some experimenting to get into the right rhythm of when best to take your Calocurb.

Science

How does Calocurb activate GLP-1?

Calocurb's delayed-release capsule releases in the upper intestine, where Amarasate® triggers special sensory cells which are our ‘bitter taste receptors’. Upon sensing the bitterness of Amarasate®, these receptors then release natural gastric peptides (GLP-1, CCK, and PYY) at up to six times their base level, sending “feel full” signals to the brain.

Can Calocurb be taken alongside a GLP-1 receptor agonist?

Calocurb has been shown to increase GLP-1 by 600% in clinical trials. Please consult your doctor or specialist if considering taking a GLP-1 receptor agonist in conjunction with Calocurb.

What are the ingredients in Calocurb?

Calocurb's active ingredient is Amarasate®, an extract from hops only grown in the South Island of New Zealand. Amarasate® works by stimulating the gastric tastebuds to release a natural blend of gastric peptides GLP-1, CCK, and PYY. This triggers the 'bitter break' that helps the body effectively manage appetite, overeating, cravings, and hunger. In a GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) credited facility, Amarasate® is gently blended with Calocurb's other two ingredients, rosemary leaf extract (a natural preservative) and a Non-GMO, glycophosphate-free canola oil (a stable, consistent oil that allows Amarasate® to disperse effectively upon contact with the gut surface). Our delayed release vegetarian capsule is made of hypromellose. All our ingredients, including the capsule, are 100% plant-based and vegetarian, vegan & gluten-free.

What clinical studies have been conducted on Calocurb?

Three published human clinical trials have been conducted with Amarasate® to test the effects on gastric hormone release, appetite measures and caloric intake. These clinical trials can be found in our 'Science' section under 'Clinical trials'.
