Any success with taking TTA products?
Tetradecylthioacetic Acid

Where it comes from: Tetradecylthioacetic Acid (also known—and more easily pronounced—as TTA) is a fatty acid that does not get used for fuel by the body, but instead helps to regulate how much fat the body stores by influencing genes that control the metabolism. It’s delivered to the body in supplement form.
What it’ll do for you: “Early studies are suggesting that [TTA] helps to burn fat from the body without the need for exercise,” explains Amy Shapiro, RD and CDN of AWS Nutrition. Often used in conjunction with other supplements (such as sesamin), TTA can help individuals feel full more quickly while the fatty acid decreases overall hunger and burns fat.
Suggested intake: TTA is often found in fat-lass products such as LipidFX by SciVation and is also marketed as the headliner ingredient with bonus minerals (TTA with electrolytes!).
Studies have demonstrated that TTA is safe and well tolerated when given once daily for seven consecutive days at doses up to 1000 mg. However, more research is still needed.
