Not here to sell anything. Just sharing what I wish someone had told me before I ended up at the doctor.
Bought a weight loss capsule from Instagram. "100% natural." No FSSAI number. 8 days later — heart palpitations, zero sleep, doctor immediately told me to stop.
What I know now:
Every legal supplement in India needs a 14-digit FSSAI number. You can verify it yourself on fssai.gov.in in 60 seconds. If it's not there — the product is not legally compliant. Full stop.
1 in 5 Indian women here have PCOS. High-stimulant capsules make PCOS symptoms significantly worse. Stimulant-free herbal formulas are the safe route for us.
Found a solid safety guide specifically about weight loss capsule for women in India — covers FSSAI verification, dangerous ingredients, and has a dedicated PCOS + thyroid section. Bookmarked it.
Stay safe everyone ????
