    Default Other Tonalin side effects?

    I dislike the dark circles under my eyes I've had since I've been on Tonalin. Has anyone else had this happen? My face looked nice when I was 10 pounds overweight, now I just look gaunt. Oh well, guess you can't have it all........

    How sweet, but seriously, the muscle-shrinking effect of Tonalin is backfiring, I'm having problems with my eye muscles twitching, and the dark circles are annoying. Has anyone else had appetite increase while on Tonalin? I'm going to cut back on the Tonalin and probably update on this if I have news worth sharing.

    I had appetite increases and HUGE bruises all the time. I had to stop taking it.

    The only thing I have noticed is that warm icky feeling in my stomach after I take 2-3 pills.

    I have had dark puffy circles under my eyes since I had my baby 4 years ago, and what has helped me is Chanel Precision Age Delay Eye Cream for undereye circles and puffiness. I have used it for a week and I am seeing a difference. Maybe that can help. It is expensive but it works.

    Hmmm...I've had bruises and dark circles for as long as I can remember; Tonalin hasn't made it any worse or better.

    I seem like I am bleeding more but my hormone have always been f-ed up so it may not be the tonalin. And speaking of eye muscles twitching, my LEG was just twitching. It may not even be related though. And does it really make you lose MUSCLE??? I don't want that!

    I got dark circles also. It also made me start to bloat and I was bruising easier. I stopped taking it and the dark circles are gone and I lost weight. Maybe it just isn't for some people. I was disappointed though 'cause my skin did real soft and I really wanted it to work.

    Ladies, I've been on this over a year, haven't had any side effects at all, other than, at times, if taken on an empty stomach, I will feel a bit nauseated. No bruising, no dark circles, no anything.

    The twitching and dark circles under the eyes can both be caused by B vitamin deficiencies - sorry I can't look it up currently, but maybe you can find it online. Otherwise try a good B complex. Dark circles under the eyes can also indicate adrenal exhaustion and kidney problems (don't worry -the circles are usually extreemly dark if they are bad problems!) so drink lots of water and make sure your diet is a nutritious one!

    Try teh green cenimide (sp?) eye gel from these guys if you keep having the circle problem. It worked for me!

    I used it for a while last year and within a week I bloated up. I was working out like crazy the same as ever so it ws due to Tonalin. I stopped taking it and I shrunk back down to my normal size and my periods got regular again.

    I just went out to walmart and picked up Eas AdvantEdge High Performance CLA. It's a fat burner. I couldn't find Tonalin, so I got this instead.
    Has anyone tried it?

    That is so weird! I noticed a couple weeks ago that my lower lid on my left eye was twitching but I never thought of the CLA being linked to it! It has been constant for about two weeks. I just started back on CLA a couple weeks ago. I can't feel the twitching though, but can see it in the mirror if I look really close like when I'm putting mascara on. I did drop 5 pounds the first week and that put me where I wanted to be (115) so I'll deal with the twitching lol.

    Sweet Toxica- I bet EAS AdvantEdge CLA is the same thing as Tonalin, since Tonalin is just the Trademark name for Cognis Co. CLA= Conjugated Lineolic Acid.

    I can't blame the eye twitching just on Tonalin. It might have just been vitamin deficiency, irregular sleep, drinking or stress (average week around my family LOL).
