dikhedd Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hydroxycut is fairly effective but you should be careful when using it. If you don't couple it with and exercise regimen it could make you gain instead of lose weight. Quote Link to comment
Amphitrite Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 This is very true :thumbsupsmiley: Fat burners will only work if you also help yourself, you should eat healthier after losing weight and getting some exercise in your daily routine. Taking pills & dieting without proper nutrition / vitamins will only make you lose water weight and your skin sag. To those who really want to lose weight, you should detoxify your digestive system first, because a dirty digestive system fools the body into taking and storing more food especially sweets thus making you fat. If your digestive system is free from toxins unhealthy craving will stop and then your body will benefit from nutrients of the food you eat. Yes exercise and getting fit is the best form of fat burning but a little help can't hurt, just be sure that the products you will drink are bfad approved safe yes, nothing beats losing weight by changing your lifestyle, for life, you could take all those fat burners and diet pills but if you dont exercise or dont eat sensibly the right foods (high fiber, vegies, fruits etc) then expect the weight to get back again in just a few weeks.. those fat burners are just plain good business and money earners for the sellers.. most of it just dehydrates you.. you are not actually burning the fat.. but you are losing so much water, thus the loss in inches and weight.. exercise and getting fit is the best form of fat burning.. its like a domino effect, the more you exercise, the more conditioned and fit you become, the more fit you become, the longer you exercise, the longer you exercise, the more you burn fat and lose weight, the more you lose weight the longer and easier you exercise.. and you become a perpetual fat burning machine.. after a while you will notice that losing weight is not anymore your problem.. its maintaining your weight so that you will not get too thin is what your new problem will be.. i had experienced that.. even if i eat and eat. i still keep on losing weight..<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quote Link to comment

doha_babe Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Diet Pills These range from common over the counter appetite suppressants such as phenylpropanolamine, caffeine pills and ephedrine hydrochloride (ephedrine is not an appetite suppressant, though often misused as one - commonly referred to as "white crosses" or "mini thins") to prescription medications like Redux and Phen/Fen. There are a wide variety of diet pills on the market that are available, many of them have addictive qualities, and some even contain small amounts of laxative. Diet pills, both over-the-counter and prescription, (as recommended, continuously, or in excess) can cause the following: nervousness, restlessness, insomnia, high blood pressure, fatigue and hyperactivity, heart arrhythmias and palpitations, congestive heart failure or heart attack, stroke, headaches, dry mouth, vomitting and diarrhea or constipation, intestinal disturbances, tightness in chest, tingling in extremities, excessive persperation, dizziness, disruption in mentrual cycle, change in sex drive, hair loss, blurred vision, fever and urinary tract problems. Overdoses can cause tremors, confusion, hallucinations, shallow breathing, renal failure, heart attack and convulsions. Prescription diet pills like the new and popular Phen/Fen (phentermine/fenfluramine) should never be taken without the written prescription of a doctor. There is an ongoing debate about their effectiveness, and all the health risks and benefits should be weighed. It should only be used in cases of extreme obesity. In addition to the health risks above, taking Phen/Fen increases your chances of Primary Pulmonary Hypertension, which is a disease that attacks the lungs, has a poor prognosis, and is fatal. Please Read the special announcement on the dangers of Phen/Fen and its link to valvular heart disease! Caffeine pills and/or Ephedrine Hydrochloride should never be taken for weight control, and should not be taken continuously. Ephedrine is a medication used occassionally to treat asthma, but more commonly allergies and hayfever - it is a bronchial dialator. Both can cause all the side effects as diet pills, with an increased risk of addiction (both physical and psychological), headaches, high blood pressure and heart palpitations and arrhythmias, including heart attack. Ephedrine use can contribute to psychosis, anxiety and depression. Quote Link to comment

crazykalbo Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 more info on fitrum (http://www.herbsandnature.com.ph/fitrum.htm) ********************************************************* FITRUM Green Tea Extract (EGCG) TEAVIGO Double strength for multiple action! Burns fat, Controls Weight & boosts the body's health! Tea drinking is an age-old Chinese custom that dates back to 3000 BC. Legend has it that Emperor Shen Nung, known as the great "Divine Healer" accidentally discovered tea and it's health benefits. An ancient medical book - The Pen Tsao -even reported the medicinal use of the plant. Since then, Green Tea has been a traditional brew in Asian countries consumed for detoxification, improvement of blood flow and resistance to diseases. Today, with the power of technology, science and medicine has extracted the major health component and active ingredient in Camellia Sinensis or Green Tea - EGCG. Further, EGCG has been purified leading to a natural compound with a purity of 90% known as TEAVIGO, proven to promote health, protect the body system, prevent disease and greatly reduce body fat accumulation and increase fat oxidation! Rapid-Fire Health Benefits: FITRUM's EGCG component is a powerful anti-oxidant that deactivates free radical to lessen the odds of cancer, lowers LDL cholesterol levels that reduces the risk of hypertension and prevents a wide array of disease including cardiovascular conditions, gastrointestinal disorders, periodontal disease and dental cavities among others. Fat-Buster and Weight Loss The EGCG component in FITRUM has been tested to enhance metabolism that burns fat, reduces body weight and exerts anti-obesity activity. Controlled clinical studies with human volunteers treated with the green tea extract high in EGCG resulted in significant reductions in visceral fat area, body fat ratio, weight and Body Mass Index (BMI). An increase in energy expenditures and rise in metabolic rates speeds up fat oxidation and contributes to weight loss. ECGC strikes to strengthen the body and make it slim and healthy. L-Carnitine; The Amino Acid like nutrient that's good for the heart and bad for the fat. Fats that are not burned are stored in the body and this can be a major problem. FITRUM's L-Carnitine component burns fat and converts it into useful energy for physical exertion and most especially to keep the heart healthy. Build up the health, Not the fat! L-Carnitine deficiency are manifested as low energy levels and muscular weakness aside from mental confusion, angina (heart pain), and weight gain. Cardiovascular health also suffers a major blow if fat is stored as the supply of energy is insufficient to make the heart perform it's normal function. Release the energy, Break down the fat! L-Carnitine found in fitrum has a two-stage complementary action - It burns the fat then turns it into energy that the heart uses to function properly. Since the heart derives 70% of it's energy from fat breakdown, scientific studies and clinical tests prove that L-Carnitine supplement assures good weight management and healthy heart maintenance. COMPONENTS : FITRUM is highly purified extract from the leaves of Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis) in a form of fine, off-white powder. It is composed of a minimum 90% Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) plus L-Carnitine INGREDIENTS: Each capsule contains 25mg of TEAVIGO, 25mg of L-Carnitine and Lactose, qs.
