just saw an infomercial on this weight gain supplement called CB-1...claims to increase appetite and slow metabolism. I have no interest just curious on if anyone has used it or heard of it.

Probably a cannibinoid agonist.

That's the only assumption I have with a name like that
 
I found someones overview, IDK I'd rather take anabeta to get hungry

"I had to dig a bit and find out what exactly is in CB1 that makes it so powerful. And guess what the main ingredient is? ECHINACEA! Yes the herb that you take to ward of colds and boost your immune system! The pills contain two Echinacea types – Angustifolia and Purpurea , and both are known to have strong immune boosting and anti inflammatory benefits. But there’s more…

The alkamides (components) of these two herbs contain a chemical similar, although much less powerful, to THC! Yes that THC – the stuff that gives you the munchies in marijuana. There is some evidence that these compounds do stimulate appetite a bit, so the company’s claims that you will be hungrier may be true. But I’m not sure that’s necessarily a good thing.

Okay for one, from what I’ve read the appetite stimulating properties of CB1 are virtually zero compared to the immune system boosting benefits of Echinacea. From what I could find, the true appetite stimulation was weak at best. Two, even if CB1 does stimulate your appetite, without a proper exercise program you’ll just get fat! Plus what exactly will you be eating with your newfound hunger pangs? Sorry guys – taking this pill will won’t give you a muscular beach body and on the women’s side, how can eating more food give you curves in all the right places – it won’t! It’ll give you a gut!"
