Weight loss pills will help me lose weight.

There is truth to the fact that there are supplements that increase your metabolism and help you shed pounds. The only problem is that supplements are not tested by the FDA. An independent investigation on the true ingredients in these supplements turned out some pretty interesting results. Items such as illegal steroids, growth hormones and other ingredients were found. All of these can have a detrimental impact on your health and may cause you to pop positive on a UA. This is what happened with Mark McGuire.

What about products that are tested by the FDA? There is a drug (not a supplement) on the market that was approved by the FDA. Studies show that taking the drug significantly increases the incidence of aberrant crypt foci. What in the world is this you ask? It is a precursor to colon cancer. There is also a a significant increase in the number of people who get breast cancer while taking this product. The FDA is now considering taking the product of the market.

The truth is that we have not found a pill or supplement that really works without somehow harming our bodies in the process. If we are losing weight to be "healthy" then taking these items would be counter intuitive to our desired results. A worst case scenario is that taking these supplements or FDA approved medications could actually cause death.If you want to lose weight you are going to have to change your mindset. This is where and how true results occur.
