What matters on the label?
The milligrams of citrus extract and the milligrams of synephrine are different quantities. BfR’s risk assessment proposed limiting supplemental synephrine to 6.7 mg daily, based on dietary exposure. This is a risk-management proposal, not a dose shown to produce weight loss. 1 2
