Miracle Pills for a Healthy Weight?

       In a very few minutes searching the Internet, we can find so many miracle products that help to reach and maintain healthy weight. People can easily lose 18lbs in the first month without any training. Is it really magic? 
            Many people get involve in very difficult training and diet in order to reach their healthy weights. It is a very long and hard process that requires participants to be persistent. Personally, I do not think that those pills and drinks can totally replace the process. For my second blog, purposefully, I want to investigate one of these "miracles" before reaching to any conclusion.

           There is a product called Proactol Plus which is clinically tested, registered and easy to use. That sounds like a magic pill. However, there is much incredible information that can be found on Proactol: 

1)   Clair Brentwood is an author. She gives out so much information and professional analysis about Proactol, but we never know about her profession. Moreover, there is no exact time on overall website. Is it credible for a healthy product?


2)   There is an obvious financial bias. From the very first time visiting the website, I can recognize many good offers for Proactol Plus such as: 180 days Money Back Guarantee and Quick Delivery. They try to sell their products with many kinds of bonuses as well.

3)   The evidences provided are invalid and awkward. They show some certificates and studies in order to prove that Proactol is 'Effectiveness AND safety is a very rare combination when it comes to weight management products’ (Evidence & Certificate, proactol).        'Pilot Clinical Study These results suggest the effectiveness of Opuntia ficus indica patented fibre complex with regard to helping reduce fat absorption of meals rich in fat content.'(proactol) Which institute conduct this research? What is the evidence for this clinical practice?       According to a reliable research on Opuntia, its principle uses are for diabetes and hangover. Furthermore, it can help to treat stomach problems, fatigue, and shortness of breath, easy bruising, prostate enlargement, and liver disease.There are no real studies suggesting that Opuntia help to reduce fat absorption in stomach and avoid food craving.        Moreover, they show off a lot of certificates but most of them are small and unclear. It is impossible to get access to have more information about these papers properly.

One of the Doctors is Dr. Ikram Abidi. He is a physician, fiction writer, health feature wordsmith, researcher and marketer. I wonder that could we believe in a person who has major in many different field. However, we have no information about the top University that he graduated. So that, I strongly believe that his recommendation is not eligible. 5)     They have contrast information. It is so attractive and credible with ' Before & After' images and comments of some customers.          'I decided to give Proactol™ a go, and I am so glad I did! I have been taking 2-3 tablets after each meal, doing a normal amount of exercise and eating as healthy as I can. In just over a month I have lost 11lbs which is incredible! '- Sophie Silva, UK, housewife. (Testimonials, Proactol).         However, there is advertising about Proactol stating that customers can eat freely but still losing weight. Where should future customers believe in?  Popout

Diet supplements might really harmful to individual health. According to FDA, such diet pill is just fairly understood and need further study although it is said to be proved by experimental research. If one takes these pills with medications or substituting for prescription medicines, it could result in life –threating. Proactol is claimed to be totally safe and has no side effects. It is really dangerous for customers who take it without any consideration. They might lead to severe consequence.         For the purpose of my research, I strongly recommend people, who want to reach and maintain healthy weight, should give up on these dietary pills. Doing exericises and eat healthily are the best way to live a real and fulfilled life. It might take a long time to achieve. However, the result must be definitely pleasurable than any miracle pills.
