It seems as if there are a lot of products on the market that promote easy weight loss. Many magazine articles, television ads and even talk shows now say that green tea can help you achieve fat burn and shed the pounds but can that be true? Can it really be as simple as that?
You’ve seen the ads and now you wonder if drinking tea can actually make you skinny. The short answer is ‘No.’ Simply drinking green tea will not cause the pounds to shed, BUT drinking green tea or taking green tea supplements can help you lose weight. It’s true!
The fat fighting components in green tea are called catechins. These compounds work to increase your metabolism all day long so you can actually burn more calories while you’re watching TV!

Weight loss in a bottle, can it be true? If you believe what the television ads and magazine ads tell you…but common sense should warn you that things that seem too good to be true usually are.
There are several new products on the market that claim to be ‘high energy’ or ‘fat burners’ in a bottle. These drinks promise you weight loss, a speedier metabolism, and a great fat burn. However, do they stand up to their claims?
No. They do not. There is simply no drink on the market that can make you skinnier by just drinking it— at least not healthily. Some of these are juice drinks that may tell you to drink only their juice and lose weight, which you will, but you need to eat right in addition to drinking ‘juice.’

Have you heard of using Adderall for weight loss? You may already know that Adderall is used to treat ADHD. This drug is actually an amphetamine; it is used to increase dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain. This works to improve mood and decrease fatigue. Studies have found that this also can cause weight loss in those who use it, as they move around more.
Adderall weight loss has a great deal of side effects. If you are already taking the drug for ADHD, then a benefit can be weight loss, but if you are trying to take Adderall just for weight loss, you should know the downside. These side effects can include heart attack, stroke and even sudden death.
If you continue to use Adderall for weight loss (or for any other reason), high doses can lead to extreme insomnia, fatigue, mental depression and irritability. This drug can also increase blood pressure which could lead to other adverse side effects. Some users have reported experiencing seizures and having increased aggression. Women who are pregnant are advised not to begin taking Adderall.
