What Is In SlimSet? The Ingredients And Label, Row By Row

By SlimSet Team · Medically reviewed by Dr. Dean Tomlin, Doctor · Last updated October 16, 2026 · 8 min read

If you want to know what you are putting in your mouth, the Supplement Facts panel is the one honest page of any bottle. SlimSet prints a fuller panel than many. Here it is, with the arithmetic done so you can read the numbers the way a researcher would.

What is SlimSet, and is it a capsule, pill, gummy or drops?

SlimSet is a dietary supplement in capsule form, one a day, sold in a bottle of 30. A bottle is therefore a month. The bottle’s category line reads “Weight Loss Product,” and it also says “Dietary Supplement” and “30 Capsules.” Those three are the only claim-like text printed on the artwork.

So, to the common search: it is not a gummy, not a powder and not liquid drops. “Pills” is fine as everyday speech, but the product is a capsule. The shell is hypromellose, a plant cellulose, so nothing in it is animal-derived.

The appetite, fat metabolism and energy lines belong to the seller’s sales page, and the bottle does not print them.

What does the SlimSet panel actually print?

The label prints a double asterisk on every row and the footnote “Daily Value (DV) not established.” Serving size one capsule; thirty servings a container.

There is no proprietary blend. A milligram figure is printed for every one of the five actives, and the five add up to 658 mg. One small oddity: caffeine is the largest row but is printed fourth. That is a formatting slip, and it changes no amount.

What does “caffeine anhydrous” mean?

Anhydrous means without water. Take the water out of caffeine and you get a dry, fine powder that can be measured precisely into a capsule. It is the same molecule found in coffee beans and tea leaves, and the body treats it no differently. What changes is precision: a capsule can state the dose, and a cup cannot.

In SlimSet it is the largest row, at 138 mg. The green tea row is capped at under 3% caffeine, so it can add at most about 3.9 mg, and the green coffee row adds a small amount the label does not quantify. A fair total is 138 mg plus single-digit milligrams.

That precision is why this row is the one worth understanding first. When an amount is printed, it can be set beside the amount used in research.

What do the percentages actually turn into?

An extract weight and a compound weight are not the same thing. Three rows print percentages that convert one into the other.

Adding the last column gives about 456.5 mg of named compound from the 658 mg of extract.

The three green tea percentages are nested, not added. Ninety-eight percent polyphenols is the broadest band, seventy-five percent catechins sits inside it, and forty-five percent EGCG sits inside that. Reading them as three separate quantities is the commonest way this kind of row gets misquoted.

What are the other ingredients, and is SlimSet vegetarian?

One line: hypromellose (vegetable capsule). Then the label prints “Contains Caffeine.” on its own, where a person scanning for warnings will look.

Hypromellose is plant cellulose and the usual vegetarian alternative to a gelatin shell. No animal-derived ingredient is declared. The label also lists no filler, flow agent, sweetener, flavouring, colour or preservative. Its allergen-style statement is the caffeine line, and no milk, soy, wheat, egg, fish or tree nut declaration appears.

If you have an allergy or a dietary rule that matters to you, read the panel on your own bottle. It is short enough to read in a minute.

Which plant parts and species are named?

• Green coffee bean extract: Coffea robusta, seed. Robusta is named on the panel rather than the commoner arabica, and the two differ in acid and caffeine content.
• Garcinia extract: Garcinia cambogia, fruit. The marker compound is hydroxycitric acid, which every garcinia trial has measured.
• Green tea extract: Camellia sinensis, leaf.
• Raspberry ketone and caffeine anhydrous: no species printed, because each is a single compound.

Raspberry ketone is the aroma compound of ripe raspberries. The label does not say whether it comes from fruit or is made in a lab, and the compound is the same either way.

Where do the amounts match the research, and where do they not?

Take the roughly 456.5 mg of named compound in a capsule. Only the 138 mg of caffeine is at an amount the research used. The other 318.5 mg is not, and 130 mg of that is raspberry ketone, which has no human amount to compare with.

• Caffeine, 138 mg: inside the range that raised resting metabolic rate in studies of 100 to 400 mg.
• Chlorogenic acids, 65 mg: under half of 140 mg a day used in the blood pressure trial, and against weight literature that was judged at high risk of bias.
• EGCG, 58.5 mg: about a fifth of the 300 mg used in the thermogenesis pilots.
• HCA, 65 mg: about four percent of the 1,500 mg a day used in the 12-week trial, which found nothing over placebo.
• Raspberry ketone, 130 mg: no human amount published.

None of this says the capsule is unsafe or useless. It says “clinically dosed” would be the wrong phrase, and it tells you where to put your attention.

Frequently asked questions

Our view

The panel is the strongest part of this product. Every row has a number, three rows have standardisation percentages, the stimulant is named twice, and the shell is the only other ingredient. Many labels in this field hide more than they show.

What the panel shows is a caffeine capsule with four modest plant rows. That is fine, as long as you buy it for what it is. Read your own bottle against this page, and let your doctor see the caffeine figure if you have any health condition.
