In the US alone there are over 55 million people who are trying to lose weight. Of these 55 million only 5 percent are expected to actually succeed in losing their weight – a very low percentage. Most people fail because they are either too lazy to follow through on their weight loss journey or because they have taken the easy way out and not received the results they wanted. The easy way I mean is by consuming Diet Pills – that claim to assist you in quick weight loss.Here are 4 reasons why you shouldn’t believe in the hype associated with diet pills.
1. Your Health
Weight loss pills can cause serious side effects to your health – such as heart problems, hair loss, high blood pressure and anxiety just to name a few. The main ingredients in diet pills are ephedrine and phentermine which have both been known to cause harmful effects such as blurred vision, nausea and vomiting. They have also been known to cause heart attacks and epilepsy.
2. Cost
This is a multi billion dollar industry – where there are many people in suits making loads of money off of people like you and me by selling products that do very little for people who want to lose weight. Many fitness magazines endorse Diet Pills – and if you look closely at the fine print you will see that the diet pill company being endorsed is actually owned by the magazine – so most if not all these pills are making other people very very rich. Diet pills can be very expensive, and when taken over a period of time can really take a chunk out of your wallet.
3. Do They Work?
Diet Pills simply don’t work – or will only provide you with very little results. The way to tell this is because if diet pills really did work then there would be no more obesity and everyone would be at a weight they would be happy with. The only way to lose weight effectively and permanently is good old fashioned diet and exercise.
4. Short Term Solution
Diet Pills Curb your appetite so you eat less. Now if you lower your calorie intake your metabolism may begin to slow down and when this happens your weight loss also slows down. So while you may have lost a bit of weight to begin with when you first started taking the pills, your weight loss will eventually come to a halt. So it may be a short term solution – but weight loss pills are not the long term answer when trying to lose weight.
From the above 4 statements you can see why Diet Pills are really only a very short term solution (if any solution at all) to weight loss, and how bad they are for your health. All of us who have battled with our weight all want the ‘answer’, the special ‘solution’, the ‘secret’ to losing weight and losing it quick. Diet Pills only offer a short term solution – a quick fix. But you need to ask your self this – Do I want short term weight loss that will cause my health to suffer or do I want long term weight loss that will increase my life expectancy and provide me with long term health benefits? If you want to get off the weight loss merry go round your only answer should be long term weight loss.
There are many better ways to lose weight without taking diet pills. Believe it or not if you are serious about losing weight in a short amount of time there is a healthy natural way to go about it – good nutrition and effective exercise. Losing a good amount of weight in a short period of time is certainly possible and doing it naturally rather than popping pills will not only make you healthier and cost less – it will provide you with far better results – far better permanent results.

Administrator: Jason makes a very good point about diet pills being an ineffective way to address real weight loss. However there is another even more important aspect that will lead to permanent and effective weight loss and that is cleansing the toxins the body accumulates in order to release the fat.
