Which Weight Loss Pills Work? : New Research Reveals the Answer

style="text-align: center;">

America’s weight loss industry is a $2.4 billion dollar business.

It’s a business based on desperate people looking to science to help them melt the extra body-fat from their swollen bellies and butts.

And unfortunately for all of us, Dr. Melinda Manore has reviewed the science behind hundreds of weight loss weight loss supplements and has determined that:

1. There is NO scientific proof  that any single product results in significant weight loss, and
2. Many have detrimental health benefits

Dr. Manore found that a few products, including green tea, fiber and low-fat dairy supplements, can have a modest weight loss benefit of 3-4 pounds (2 kilos), but it is important to know that most of these supplements were tested as part of a reduced calorie diet.

“For most people, unless you alter your diet and get daily exercise, no supplement is going to have a big impact.”

Manore looked at supplements that fell into four categories:

1. Products such as that block absorption of fat or carbohydrates,
2. Stimulants such as or ephedra that increase metabolism,
3. Products such as that claim to change the body composition by decreasing fat, and
4. Appetite suppressants such as.

She found that many products had no randomized clinical trials examining their effectiveness, and most of the research studies did not include exercise.

Sadly, most of the products showed less than a two-pound weight loss benefit compared to the placebo groups.

Conclusion

According to the good doctor, there is no magic weight loss pill.

To lose weight, look great and be healthy, it all comes down to:

• A,
• That doesn’t come packaged in a  and filled with pseudo-foods
