Slimming Tablets...
Do they really work?
Currently in the UK, there are only two anti-obesity drugs
available on prescription - Xenical and
Reductil These work in completely
different ways. Xenical blocks the action of lipase, the enzyme that digests fat
in the intestine and stops around 30 percent of the fat you've eaten from being
absorbed. As a result, your body loses around a third of the calories provided
by this fat so you start to lose weight! In contrast, Reductil enhances satiety
by indirectly boosting levels of serotonin, a chemical that helps you feel full.
This means you feel more satisfied with less food and so eat smaller amounts and
lose weight.
To lose weight safely and sensibly, you need to tackle the poor eating habits
and lack of exercise that helped you gain weight in the first place. If you
concentrate on making long-term changes to your diet and lifestyle, you won't
need to resort to quick fix remedies. But if you still can't resist the
fantastic promises, at least avoid those products that make outrageous claims.
If a product sounds to be good to be true, then it probably is!
Avoid
slimming tablets if they..
(A) Promise a quick fix - sorry, but you didn't put the
weight on overnight so you can't expect to lose it overnight!
(B) Promote
rapid weight loss - that's anything more than 2lb a week!
(C) Suggest you
don't need to change your eating habits or take more exercise - you know it's
not true!
(D) Fail to come with dietary advice - or worst still, come with
a faddy diet that cuts out certain groups of foods, considerably restricts your
food intake or encourages you to eat vast amounts of one particular
food!
Do slimming
tablets ever work?
Sometimes over-the-counter
slimming tablets can work, but this generally has little to do with their
ingredients. They're more likely to help you lose weight because.
(E) They
come with a reduced-calorie diet plan that generally provides between 1,000 and
1,400 calories a day and recommend taking more exercise. It's this that causes
the weight to drop off!
(F) You usually need to drink large amounts of
water with the tablets. This helps to fill you up so you feel less hungry and eat
less as a result!
(G) You've spent a lot of money on something you hope
will help you lose weight so without even realising it, you make changes to your
lifestyle such as eating less or exercising more!
