UPDATE 2: On Dec. 4, 2020, Top Class Actions viewers started receiving checks in the mail worth up to $60 from the Lipozene Weight Loss Pills Class Action Settlement. Congratulations to everyone who filed a valid claim and got PAID!
UPDATE: The Lipozene Weight Loss Pills Class Action Settlement was granted final approval on March 6, 2020. Let Top Class Actions know when you receive a check in the comments section below or on our Facebook page.
A $4.6 million settlement resolves allegations that the Obesity Research Institute deceived consumers about the effectiveness of its Lipozene weight loss pills.
Class Members include those who purchased Lipozene weight loss pills between Aug. 10, 2012 and Oct. 28, 2019 for personal use.
Lead plaintiffs accused the Obesity Research Institute and Continuity Products of falsely advertising Lipozene as a “weight-loss breakthrough” that would “get rid of pounds of body fat.”
The Lipozene class action contended that, contrary to Lipozene’s advertising claims, the supplement is neither a safe nor effective treatment for weight loss.
The product’s main ingredient, glucomannan, is allegedly not absorbed by the human body. According to the Lipozene class action lawsuit, the product is basically a fiber pill that has no value for its intended purpose.
The Lipozene class action further claimed that Obesity Research Institute and Continuity Products, are simply interlinked shell companies run by the other defendants, Henny den Uijl, and Sandra den Uijl, who have a track record of selling other “worthless supplements.”
The defendants do not admit any wrongdoing but agreed to pay up to $4.6 million to end the Lipozene weight loss class action lawsuit.
Under the settlement, Class Members can make a claim for cash for the Lipozene they purchased. In addition, the defendants have agreed to change their marketing statements about Lipozene.
Class Members with proof of purchase can get $15 per bottle, up to four units. Proof of purchase may include a credit card statement or receipts.
Those without proof of purchase can claim $7 for one unit.
To benefit from this settlement Class Members must submit a Claim Form online or by mail no later than Feb. 17, 2020.

I received an email to select my payment option in July. Which I selected PayPal. It’s September and no money yet. I’ve emailed them twice and keep getting a generic reply saying they haven’t issued payments yet and to be patient. Sounds like some bs for $7
I have not receive no paper check from lipozene settlement yet
Has anyone received paper checks for Lipozene. Class admin Heffler has been cheating on paying the consumers.
How many times do we pick up the payment option. It was already checked while submitting the claim. Again they send e-mails to select payment method. And nothing. This is nonsense. Paying $7 without proof when one pack is $29.49 plus tax
Cheating, cheating, cheating. Attorneys already made millions, not interested in consumers.
Received the email, selected PayPal for payment, still have received nothing and the website offers no update. Ugh!
Yer full of shit
I was approved. Didn’t receive an email.
I didnt get either and I was approved.
What happened to the payments and I was signed up for it and now I feel like they have scammed me again. Please let me know.
Payment options emails are being sent
Got a email today for payment option so I’ll keep ya updated
