I have been on this for one year and lost 2 stone, however I have never been offered any blood tests or vitamins and now have been really ill with pancreatis, and I have noticed this has occurred in a few people who have been on this a long time. I now feel really ill. I WOULDNT ADVISE TAKING IT FOR A LONG TIME
