Don't listen to anyone who tells you that something works or doesn't work (I guess that should include me). As long as it's not dangerous to your health or your wallet, give it a try. Just know that the ultimate resolution of the problem (not just the symptoms) lies with you and your lifestyle.
They do work, to the extent that placebos work.
