The desire for weight loss can make you take desperate measures.
But sacrificing your long term health to achieve weight loss and aesthetic goals is dangerous.
The outstanding failure of most diets with strange names to give lasting weight loss to people who have tried it should be enough warning that diets and extreme weight loss measures don’t work.
If it did, we will not have 50 different shades of diet floating around.
As you’re reading this, someone, somewhere is cooking up another diet or pill to sell to you.
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself whatever happened to all those overhyped diets?
Now it’s diet and weight loss pills.
And they all come with the promise of “no side effect”
Even coffee has side effects – palpitations, insomnia, trembling etc
Before taking any magic pills for weight loss, here are some questions you need to answer.
You owe it to yourself to answer these questions.
- Who prescribed the diet pills to you? Is it your Doctor?
- Is it a friend or a Multi Level Marketing (MLM) organization?
- Are they qualified to prescribe drugs? Do they know about your health?
- How long should you take them?
- What are the ingredients?
- Are they safe?
- What are the effect of those ingredients on your body and internal organs?
- How exactly do they promote weight loss?
- What are the contraindications?
- Is it approved? If yes – For what and for who?
- Is it over the counter or should it be on Doctor’s prescription only?
