Fat 2 Fit Show #18 - Weight Loss Pills and Supplements
Do all of these weight loss pills and potions actually work? There are so many choices out there and they all have a huge list of ingredients. Should you try out a couple of them to see how they work for you, or should you just save your money?
There are two sides to this issue. We discover that Pharmacists have a very different perspective than the commission-based salesman at the local health food store. We discuss the difference between drugs and dietary supplements, the safety of weight loss supplements,where you can find them, where you should get advice about them, which are the most popular ones, what are the most popular active ingredients in them, and which ones are recommended by pharmacists.
In our email and comment section we had a lot of feedback that simply offered a lot of great advice for our listeners. Miranda left a comment on the blog about food addiction, we read a portion of a post made by Curt in the Fat2Fit Support group, and an email by JC from Dublin, Ireland who discussed the benefits of riding a bike to work.
In our News/Education section Jeff and Russ discussed an article that listed over 50 diet tips. Russ also found a great link on Mahalo that was a perfect summary about all of the basics of weight loss.
