Are these pills black? I recently ordered them and was shocked at the color?

Yes, mine were black. I didn't ask the company.I figured that it was just the color. Call them I guess. Is the number on the bottle?I've had no side effects.

They are a pretty dark color gel cap. I don't know for sure but have always assumed that it is to protect the contents from light since I have known that to be necessary for some products to prevent them from breaking down.

Yes, they are black. I purchased them both online and at the vitamin store and they look the same.

Hello Amy, the reason for the dark capsule and dark jar is to protect the liquid-softgel capsuels from light exposure, ensuring the freshest quality Garcinia Cambogia available.

They are not. They recently changed the color. I thought the same thing, and then purchased this product at Target. The capsules were purple/red. Sometimes they just change. You might want to contact the company for clarification.

They are pretty big, I would search another kind , also these have Carmel color added, always read ingredients, I don't understand the need to have a color added to a pill [---------------------------------] <<~~ This is size of pill.

I guess they could be considered a very, very dark charcoal color. But, I just looked and they look black to me, just as they are pictured!

From what I know, there was a problem a few years ago with old pills but Amazon and sTandard Process have worked together and resolved this issue...make sure you order just 1bottle to be sure and check for dark spots on the pills...that is not acceptable.

The latest bottle of this product that I received, the capsules are WAY lighter in color. what gives? I even emptied each capsule and the substance is lighter in color than the older ones (production date only 5 months different and both freshness dates are good into2017)

No they are chalky like normal pills. Wasn't bad to swallow though. I haven't seen a difference

They are dark grey.... close to black, but not really dark black. Hope that helps.

I don't know about the color, BUT I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM!!! They shrank 20% AND they shrank from square to rectangular!!! And they were supposed to be preshrunk!!! Do yourself a favor and do not waste your money!

Hello, Yes the pills are yellow and they have a distinctive smell. This is normal and consistent with all of the bottles I have purchased from different sources. Hope this helps.

They aren't exactly peachy skin tone, but they aren't yellow either. They are kind of an tan-yellow. Hope that helps. If you are tan they will probably match better than if you are fairer skinned. The picture color is pretty accurate. Mine had a black stamp on them, some sort of serial or item number, but I scrubbed most of it off (I think just with a scrubby sponge and maybe some hot water, I can't remember). Just be aware yours may have that too.

They are tablets, not gel-caps, and do not have smooth edges. However, if this bothers you, they are very small in size and may not affect you the same as other pills.

Yes, as of my last order, they are still blue. It's dye, because guaifenesin itself is chalky white. Still, the Kirkland product works well.

I too noticed the change of capsule color. I am sure it is legit. I just wish the manufacturers would put themselves in the consumers mind set and understand it could be cause for concern. Some acknowledgement on the box would be nice.

The ones I got were sort of that color. I was not concerned with the color when I ordered. As long as it stays put & doesn't give me a rash I am happy.
