Are Diet Pills the Answer?
There has been a lot of flak with how USA has been flirting with
health problems because of obesity. More and more people are
getting drowned in the onslaught of fast food and junk foods.
Remember the movie "Upsize Me"? It played a parody on how
Americans are stuffing themselves silly with fatty foods. Over
sixty percent of American citizens are considered obese or
bordering into it. Many would like to deny this, but deep down
inside, most of them would like to change their eating lifestyle.
The fitness and health industry of America is a multibillion
business that are resting on the obesity fears of the citizens.
Many know the consequences of being fat and would like to
change. From aerobics, to exercise machines, to instructional
videos, food supplement, diet pills and lots more. Many have
embarked on the loss-fat voyage hoping to conquer their binges
but no one truly wants to work hard for it. The options provided
by the industry keeps their hopes alive in looking and feeling
better without breaking a sweat.
So when the emergence of diet pills in popularity came, with
promises like, "melt away pounds easily." "Look better in not
time at all." Look and Feel great without exercising," and lots
more, many people were excited about that concept and jumped
into the frenzy. So many questions have cropped up though, is it
really that good? Would it really work? Does it have any side
effects? Can they really deliver on those promises? Recent
studies have shown that some do really work, the problem is,
many have been documented to suffer from health setbacks. Heart
related problems have arisen and many deaths have been linked to
such diet pills.
So how do you know which diet pill would be good for you? Well,
only a doctor can truly say. It would be best to subject
yourself to a thorough physical first to see the risks that
could be involved in taking diet pills. There is a plethora of
diet pills flooding in the market and these are categorized into
three types. OTC's or Over the Counter, these are diet pills
that can be bought in drug store without
the need for doctor's
prescriptions. They usually contain little chemicals that can
affect the human system much. They are considered less dangerous
but is also subjected to FDA testing first before sold to the
market. Another form of diet pills is the Herbal supplements.
They are not usually labeled as drugs and can also be bought
without a prescription. They claim to be all-natural but are
still subjected to FDA (Food and Drugs Administration) scrutiny.
Then there are the prescription diet pills. They are only sold
with doctors' prescriptions and are tightly regulated by the
FDA. Doctors also conduct close monitoring on their patients who
take this form of diet pills for any damage or risk to their
health.
With so many forms, varieties and types, these diet pills don't
usually work for everyone since they have different chemical
composition as well as the patients have different reactions.
Diet pills can have inadvertent effect on each individual.
Common side effects are, uncomfortable cramping, gas and
diarrhea. This is due to the fact that the drug is taking away
important vitamin supplements to the body. That is why some
people are advised to take vitamin supplements as well. Some
experience a raise in heart palpitation and blood pressure, with
this comes along the increase in the risk of a stroke or a heart
attack.
When it comes to losing fat, nothing still beats good old hard
work and discipline. Even the so called natural diet pills and
herbal diet pill products have effects on some people, bad ones.
Working up a sweat and following a natural balanced diet is
still the best way to go. Get yourself a buddy to guide you and
assist you in your weight loss program. Diet pills can be bad,
don't get me wrong. You will have to exercise and watch what you
eat. In no time at all you'll meet the fitter, healthier more
confident you.
