Diet Pills Reviewed
Diet pills are prominent in the marketplace today. They are indeed a very tempting avenue
to take if you are trying to lose weight. 
If you have been trying unsuccessfully so far, the temptation to add diet pills to your efforts is great.
Diet pills offer us everything we want to achieve in a quick fix.
The attraction of diet pills and there appealing weight loss claims can be hard to pass up… as is
evidenced by vast growth in this industry in the past few years.
But are all diet pills as safe and effective as they claim to be?
But the big question still remains - Do diet pills actually work… and if they do in fact work… which diet
pill is right for me?
The effectiveness of diet pills and their ingredients therein have been studied at length by various
research groups and organizations throughout the world.
Problematically this research has brought together or published in such a way that consumers have been
able to gain a complete understanding of the research and compare the different diet pills and weight loss products available on
the market in order to make an educated purchasing decision.
This lack of organization and subsequent publication of information has made it difficult at best for consumers to be 100%
comfortable in making their decision when it comes to diet pills and weight loss products.
With recent estimates on consumer spending at $50 billion per year on weight loss products, the weight loss market has
exploded and as such consumers have become increasingly more concerned with the effectiveness and the safety of the products that
they may be considering.
At weight-loss-won we endeavor to help consumers in this market to avoid buying potentially harmful, worthless, or even
fraudulent weight loss products.
Weight-Loss-Won has reviewed many of the current diet pills on the market today and their ingredients. Just below you’ll find
an overview of some of the more common and popular diet pills on the market today.
As expected as part of our research and review of diet pills we came across a wide variety of effectiveness with the products
and even some with know side effects.
The following is a brief summary of the findings of the diet pills that have no known side effects and we believe are a good
value for your money.

Editor's Choice
|
Proactol: |
|
With four published pre clinical studies Proactol™ has
earned the editor’s top choice rating.
These clinical studies show that by taking Proactol™ after each meal you can bind over 27% of
your dietary fat intake. Working similar to that of Xenical, Proactol™ provides the top non
prescription diet supplement alternative.
The Proactol™ patented fibre complex Opuntia fiscus-indica binds with dietary fats to form a
liquid gel surrounding the fat. This reaction makes the fat complexes too large to be absorbed
through your digestive tract. As such the fats pass naturally through your digestive system and
out your body.
Proactol™ is a licensed medical device product (MDD 93/42/EEC) and has been doctor recommended
for the treatment of obesity and personal weight management. Proactol™ has also been proven to
reduce food cravings and assist in lowering cholesterol.
Proactol™ efficiency and claims are supported by clinical studies and
research. As a consumer, you can be assured that you are buying a quality product as noted by the
medical device (MDD 93/42/EEC) certification.
In summary, Proactol™ is the most suitable non prescription weight loss supplement that is
available to the general public today.

Hoodia Gordonii
Plus is getting high marks across the market. This highly publicized
product has received the highest ratings in many diet product review
circles.
The problem
with this product lies not in the product itself but the vast amount of
counterfeit and worthless "Hoodia" products that have infiltrated the market
place.
There are
over 13 types of Hoodia. However the only active ingredient for appetite
suppressing found so far is P57 and
this can only be found in one type of Hoodia called Hoodia Gordonii. It takes
about five years for Hoodia Gordonii to mature so that it can be harvested and
the P57 can be abstracted.
Because of
the high demand and the long growth and extraction cycle the consumer needs to be
very aware of where they purchase their Hoodia Gordonii Plus. I would not by this
product from just anywhere. Anybody can throw powder into a capsule and claim it
is Hoodia, but can they prove it?
You want to
make certain that the ingredient used is 100% pure South African Hoodia. One such
reputable site is The-Health-Hub.com. The Hoodia sold from this site is licensed
by the Western Cape Conservation Authority of South Africa and is certified to
be 100% Authentic.
One big
advantage of Hoodia Gordonii Plus is that you only need to take this product once
a day as opposed to before or after every meal.
The Hoodia
Gordonii diet pills featured on the recommended site only contain natural and
organic ingredients; they will contain NO stimulants such as caffeine and
Ephedra.

Dietrine Carb Blocker: |
|
Dietrine Carb Blocker with Phase 2® makes dieting easy by using carb
blocking properties. These carb blocking properties assist your body in stopping starchy foods
from transforming to glucose (sugar) and then ultimately fat.
Phase 2® is the key ingredient. Phase 2® is a non-stimulant all natural ingredient that is
derived from white kidney beans. Phase 2® has been clinically and scientifically proven to
neutralize the starch that is found in many of your favorite foods (potatoes, pastas, breads,
corn, etc).
During the digestive process, your body converts carbohydrates, found in the aforementioned
starchy foods into sugar. Your body does this by breaking-down the carbohydrate molecule with
alpha amylase, an enzyme that is produced in the pancreas.
One Dietrine Carb
Blocker Capsule taken prior to a meal can block up to 1125 calories from fat and
carbohydrate foods.
Consumer feedback on the Dietrine Carb Blocker capsule overall has been quite positive as many
people have reported successful results from using the Dietrine Carb Blocker all natural diet
pills.
As for carb blocking; Dietrine Carb Blocker is the most effective supplement on the
market.

Dietrine Weight Loss Patch: |
|
Even though this section is about the reviews we’ve done on diet pills, we felt
it necessary to include this review of the Dietrine Weight Loss
Patches.
Although not as strong as the course of diet pills, we recommend the Dietrine Weight Loss
Patch for those who prefer not to pills directly. Dietrine is a reputable supplier and
manufacturer of herbal health products and is well known in both the health and herbal
marketplace.
Many people have reported very favorable results using a combination of the Dietrine Carb
Blocker pills and the weight loss patch.
The application of the patch is a simple one - just place the Dietrine Patch on the wrist,
arm, or other smooth part of your body… just like a band-aid.
The formula is then absorbed immediately into the skin (transdermal delivery) and from there
into the blood stream where it works to control your appetite naturally.
The Dietrine Patch
system represents cutting-edge slimming technology, providing a natural, simple and
discreet method of losing weight. The Patch helps you to lose weight by increasing your
metabolism to burn more calories and decreasing your hunger resulting in natural weight loss. The
Dietrine Patch Formula works by both increasing your metabolism and decreasing your appetite.

To our surprise the Cabbage Soup diet
pill scored out actually very well. This product appears to mimic the effects of being
on on the popular cabbage soup diet; a diet that has been used very successfully for many years
as a weight loss program.
Needless to say the Cabbage Soup diet pill is much easier to stay with than actually cooking
and eating cabbage several times a week. Early results indicate that the pill form of the cabbage
soup diet does well at reducing the appetite and mimicing the positive effects of the the diet
without the large consumption of cabbage.
It's early on in the marketplace for the Cabbage Soup diet
pill, but it appears that it could be an effective product; especially if combined
with other proper eating habits and exercise.

Dr. Chong's Wulong Tea is obviously not a pill, but we wanted to put up a
review on this product since green tea is becoming more and more popular these days as a weight
loss supplement.
Aside from its extreme antioxidant properties, green tea has a high concentration of
polyphenols. These naturally occurring chemicals found in fruits and vegetables are extremely
high in green tea and interact with the body to increase your metabolism.
Triglycerides (a type of fat your body stores) are split into glycerol and fatty acids as they
pass through the digestive system. As a result of this chemical process these fats can then be
absorbed into your blood stream. Once in your bloodstream these triglycerides are reformed into
and become lipoproteins. These lipoproteins then deliver fatty acids to and from fat cells.
Dr. Chong's
Wulong Tea contains rich antioxidant polyphenols that increase the metobolism of
triglycerides - which means that they are burnt (or consumed) as energy and not stored as
fat.
