Some of the information you read will down right make you mad – but I feel that it is my duty as a fitness professional to give you the truth.
So without further ado, here is the low-down on weight loss supplements that you need to know about.If you have opened a magazine, turned on the radio, or glanced at the TV lately then you know there is an overabundance of weight loss supplements currently on the market.
Some claim that you will lose 5 pounds in a week; others claim that you will lose 3 dress sizes in a month, and my personal favorite claims that you will lose 20 pounds in 10 days.
Do these pills really have the ability to “melt away pounds” or “burn fat in your sleep”? The correct answer is probably on the tip of your tongue… No! No matter how much we enjoy the fantasy of a magic pill turning us into a supermodel, deep down we know that this is simply not realistic.
A $30 billion dollar industry thrives on our false hope of miraculous weight loss supplements itching to effortlessly turn us into svelte hard bodies. It is time that we came face to face with the real facts about weight loss as we cast off all misconceptions.
In reality, research shows that 95% of weight loss induced by supplements will be gained back in no less than 3 years. The Food and Drug Administration has gone so far as to declare that a weight loss supplement with a proven record of long-term success DOESN’T EXSIST!
And to think that billions of dollars are spend on products that are PROVEN to not work!
This is where things get hairy…
These so-called weight loss supplements are acknowledged as ‘food’ by the FDA and are therefore not evaluated for their safety and effectiveness.
So you are telling me that weight loss supplements can make outrageous claims without backing them up? Yep. Sad, but true. Here are the hard facts about magical weight loss pills:
Most weight loss supplements contain appetite suppressants that have been known to cause reactions in some people that lead to strokes, heart attacks, panic attacks, and even death.
Quite often the few pounds that you do end up losing with weight loss supplements are due to the diuretics that they contain. A diuretic is a substance that flushes water out of your body, providing a quick and temporary dip on the scale.
Weight loss supplements are expensive! It may be easy to justify the cost to yourself when you believe that your hard earned money is being spent on sculpting your figure, but don’t be fooled! The useless pills cost the manufacturer only pennies to produce, while they charge you an arm and a leg.
Next time you see a stunning before and after picture of the guy or gal that lost 200 pounds by taking a certain supplement, beware! There is a higher probability of you being struck by lightening tonight than that claim being true. Most spokespersons and testimonials for weight loss supplements are false, and are only there to entice an unsuspecting public.
