I have never been a fan of diet pills.
There are so many available with slogans, promises, that are just not possible, and yet people spend money on them every day.
From metabolic increasment to pure fat burners these pills say they will change your life.
Lets see if that's true.
OK, I have tried a few diet pills in the past and in my experience they have very little effect so this article is slightly biased against them, but at least I can give you the benefit of my experiences.
Lets have a look at a few of the different types of pills available.
Appetite Suppression Pills These pills, as suggested by the name, are meant to stop your hunger.
The less hungry you are during the day, the less you eat right? Well, not so for everyone.
Ignoring whether or not the pills work for a minute, are most people over weight because they are always hungry? I don't think so.
I think people eat too much for a variety of reasons, such as enjoying the taste of food, eating for comfort, eating out of boredom, desire, etc.
Hunger plays a role for three meals a day and a snack here or there.
But lets just say for the sake of argument people are obese because they are always hungry, then do these pills suppress appetites? No, not in my experience.
They made very little difference, except for one lot I had that recommended I down a glass of water at the same time as taking them.
Well strangely they did suppress my hunger for a hour or two, but not more than downing a glass of water normally does.
Do not bother about these pills, find a way to distract your self when feeling hungry or when you want to eat.
Maybe play a game or go for a walk.
Metabolism Increasment So these pills are meant to speed up how quickly your body burns energy/fat.
How do they usually do this? They use a proven method called caffeine.
Yes this is the same caffeine you will find in a cup of coffee.
Only, these pills will cost you more and do less.
A black coffee will fill you up, increase your metabolism and can be enjoyable.
These are just my experiences, try them for yourself, but do not expect to lose 5 pounds a week doing nothing differently except popping one of these pills.
It will not happen.
