Fight Obesity ? The Plague Of Our Times

When it comes to shedding those pounds, the supreme choice are supplements which are totally natural and herbal. This is because many people feel intimidated by the FDA approved drugs due to their various side effects. One such products which is considered to be the most effective and is used by millions of American?s to achieve weight loss is Hydroxycut.

The dramatic increase in obesity-related diseases emphasizes the need to aggressively combat obesity. That is why more and more people are in need of a weight loss aid that will make it easier for them to lose weight and that weight loss aid should be only Hydroxycut.

HYDROXYCUT ? AT A GLANCE

Hydroxycut is THAT product which has garnered the renowned title of ?The Diet Pill?. Hydroxycut is easily America?s Most wanted weight loss supplement. For years, people all over America have chosen Hydroxycut for best weight loss results.
Hydroxycut is a powerful fat burner. It is one of the most powerful fat burner of our times.It is a highly popular, effective and successful weight loss supplement which has been around for more than 9 years. It has been used by millions of people with excellent results. Its excellent efficacy can be judged from the fact that more than a million product units are sold every year. That means it must be highly effective to make people buy it.
Reap the benefits and start losing extra weight. Try America?s #1 selling weight loss pill now.
Due to several complaints the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning, in May 2009, to consumers to avoid using Hydroxycut because there was risk of serious side effects. The manufacturer then recalled the products and after few months new and much safer formulations of Hydroxycut weight loss products were created and are being sold currently in the market.

?

There is no denying the fact that if you search for Hydroxycut over the internet, you will be bombarded with the facts stating that Hydroxycut is not safe.
You will be overwhelmed at the amount of information available about Hydroxycut being unsafe, causing liver damage and consumers being warned by FDA to avoid using Hydroxycut product.
They are not just rumours - it?s true. But that?s just the tip of the iceberg, not the whole story.

Benefits vs Risk Analysis ??? No Comparison!

From the time of its launch, Hydroxycut was a huge success. Millions of Hydroxycut products have been sold to date. The average sale is more than one million units of Hydroxycut per year. In 2008 alone over nine million units were sold!
Considering the number of products sold and the negative information available about Hydroxycut on the internet, it makes one think that the number of reported complaint or cases might be in thousands or more.
But do you know the actual TOTAL number of complaints received by FDA against Hydroxycut? 23! That?s it! Just 23!
Out of millions of people who used Hydroxycut, only 23 people suffered from side effects. That?s less than even 0.000023%!!!
As a matter of fact, more number of people than that get killed in road accidents each year! Imagine That! (average number of people killed due to drug interations)????
Millions of people have used Hydroxycut up to now. Comparing the huge numbers of consumers to just 23 complaints received by FDA, the hype about Hydroxycut being unsafe certainly seems a lot less threatening.
The chances of Hydroxycut causing liver damage are very rare ? less than one in a million, so when you weigh the risks against benefits there is no comparison.

Side effects are a part of healthcare system

Side effects have always been a part of healthcare system regardless whether it is allopathic or naturopathic (herbal).
Those people who say that Natural or herbal compounds have no side effects ? let them know that HYDROXYCUT contains only natural herbs. So why these side effects? Do not be mislead by thinking natural compounds are free from side effects and only FDA approved drugs have side effects. What are these FDA approved drugs actually? Basically they are just refined and concentrated forms of herbs. While herbal supplements are just the raw form of these drugs.
Let???s consider Aspirin. Aspirin considered a safe drug and has been approved to be sold without a doctor?s prescription. It can just be bought from any pharmacy store by anyone. But have you ever read the pamphlet containing drug information present inside the packaging? It lists the side effects of Aspirin, which are several, with stomach irritant and ulcer causing being the main ones.
The point is that even a drug considered so safe that it is allowed to be sold without doctor?s prescription has side effects ? so why can?t herbal products, from which modern drugs are derived, have side effects? Interestingly not many people are aware of the fact that Aspirin was at first just another herbal/natural compound. It has been derived from oil in wintergreen which was given as decoction to the people having fever and pain. (RRRRRRRRRR) So does that mean that taking Aspirin is not safe while using oil of wintergreen is safe? No. Herbal supplements too have side effects.
Herbal supplements of today may become FDA approved drugs of tomorrow.
So like Aspirin ? Hydroxycut has its share of side effects too ? but they are extremely rare and are only serious when you do not follow proper instructions.

Some people are more sensitive than others

An important point one must consider is that the body systems of everyone are not identical.
Consider another common drug , Ibuprofen (ibuprofen) ? A drug safer than even Aspirin which can be safely given to small children and even infants! (while Aspirin cannot).
Ibuprofen is a great life saving drug but as the body systems of some people are more sensitive than others ? ibuprofen is not tolerated by all. Some people get allergic reactions and rashes when they take ibuprofen.
So does that mean that we should also stop taking this Life saving drug just because a few people do not tolerate it? Obviously No.
Same is the case with Hydroxycut. 23 people were did not tolerate it and were sensitive to it ? while millions were not!
So we should not just blindly accept that Hydroxycut is not safe and deprive ourselves of this amazingly effective drug for weight loss!

Side effects are part of nature

Side Effects are part of our nature. Just consider food allergies ? even foods can be harmful for some. But Just because some people are allergic to, say, eggs should everyone stop eating eggs?
Even common salt can be harmful to us! It can cause High blood pressure and can lead ot heart failures. That???s why doctors advise heart patients to reduce their salt intake. That does not mean that everyone should stop using salt. What we do is that we use salt carefully and notice if it is causing us any problems like high blood pressure.
Same is the case with Hydroxycut ??? you start on low dose and slowly increase the dose to find out whether you tolerate it or not. Most probably you will unless you are the special one in a million.

Accidents are part of life ??? To err is human

After approving the drug, FDA makes post-market survillence mandatory in order to look out for any adverse drug reaction which might have gone unnoticed.

Even After spending billions of dollars and years of time in research and even getting approved by FDA, some drugs turn out to be harmful. Rofecoxib (Vioxx) is a good example.

Similarly Hydroxycut is continually being researched and improved at a very fast pace because it does not require approval by FDA. So many new and safe formulations are available in the market.

Final Words

Do not stop using Hydroxycut just because one person in a million complained about it.

If the stories of Hydroxycut being unsafe were true, it should have been banned by law after so many cases and so much hype in media.

The fact that Hydroxycut still rules the market is proof enough that it is considered safe and there is no concrete evidence to discontinue its use.

FDA only issued a warning telling people to be careful. Well that???s what we advise you. (read below how to use Hydroxycut safely)

Clinical Research Studies Verify The Weight Loss Effect Of the Ingredients

Hydroxycut consists of three main groups of ingredients.

Dietary minerals,
Hydroxygen,
Hydroxy Tea.

The Dietary Minerals

Calcium plays an important contributing role in reducing the incidence of obesity and prevalence of the insulin resistance syndrome.. (http://jn.nutrition.org/content/133/1/249S.short)

Chromium increases lean body mass and decrease percentage body fat, which leads to weight loss in humans. (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1753-4887.1998.tb01763.x/abstract)

Potassium acts as an electrolyte in the body and is a dietary requirement. Potassium is needed for proper muscle growth, Proper fuctioning of nervous system and brain function.

The Components of Hydroxygen Plus

Garcinia cambogia Extract: Garcinia cambogia effectively lowers the body weight and reduces accumulated fat around abdominal (visceral) organs by modulating multiple genes responsible for adipogenesis (fat formation).(http://ukpmc.ac.uk/abstract/MED/18603810/reload=0;jsessionid=jYZPfW5zdgxSkbwPGNqA.0).

Hydroxycitric acid or HCA, present in Garcinia cambogia, has been shown to reduce appetite, inhibit fat synthesis and decrease body weight without stimulating the central nervous system. So it does not increase blood pressure and make you feel jittery like caffeine does.

Gymnema Sylvestre Extract has been clinically proven to significantly decreases body weight.

It decreases food consumption by suppressing appetite and reduces fat around visceral (abdominal) organs which results in reduction in belly fat.
It lowers blood serum levels of triglycerides (lipids), total cholesterol, low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) & very low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs) and blood sugar levels because it makes muscles take up glucose from blood. It increases the levels of high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) which are good lipids.
It also inhibits the pancreatic lipase which is responsible for digesting fats in our foods. This prevents absorption and accumulation of fat in our body. This gives us a clear evidence that the Gymnema Sylvestre Extract has a excellent anti-obesity action. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22486040)

Combination of Hydroxy Citric Acid (present in Garcinia cambogia) , Chromium & Gymnema Sylvestre Extract serve as safe weight management supplements. (http://www.nrjournal.com/article/S0271-5317(03)00221-5/abstract)

Soy Proteins: Soy protein reduces body weight and fat mass and lowers plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Soy protein reduces body fat accumulation and improves insulin resistance. Consumption of soy protein produces satiety (the feeling of being full) and reduces excess body fat. Soy protein and its constituents also reduce plasma lipids and fat accumulation in liver and adipose tissue, which reduces the risks of atherosclerosis, lipotoxicity and other obesity-related complications. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1838825/)

Rhodiola rosea extract contributes to weight loss in several ways.

It activates the synthesis & resynthesis of ATP in muscle mitochondria (power house of cells) which stimulates and repairs energy formation processes after intense exercise.
It helps in weight reduction and fat burning because it makes muscles utilize more energy and burn more calories. So it is thermogenic in nature which futher contributes to weight loss.(http://www.springerlink.com/content/p6533473q8100547/).
Rhodiola rosea posesses anti-stress properties. Dieting puts the body in semi-starvation state which results in stress & depression. This stress & depression results in lack of energy and motivation. Anti-stress properties of Rhodiola rosea relieves our body of stress and makes it more active.. (http://jop.sagepub.com/content/21/7/742.short)

Whithania Somnifera acts on adipocytes (fat cells) to reduce cell viability. Its does this by reducing formation of new fat cells(adipogenesis) and triggering cell death of existing fat cells (apoptosis). (http://iospress.metapress.com/content/0nk4314823416832/).

Withania somnifera is also useful for generalized weakness and improves speed, lower limb muscular strength and neuro-muscular co-ordination. This makes us more active and make exercise and workouts a lot easier. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2996571/)

The Components Of Hydroxy Tea

Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis Leaf)Extract:

Consumption of green tea and its extracts reduce body weight by reducing body fat.
It also increases postprandial thermogenesis (formation of heat after meals) and fat oxidation (metabolism).
EGCG (active compound of green tea) alone has the potential to increase fat metabolism in men and contributes to the anti-obesity effects of green tea. (http://www.jacn.org/content/26/4/389S.abstract)
Green tea extracts enhances exercise-induced changes in abdominal fat and serum triglycerides (lipids). SThis statement providses the clinical basis to the fact that Hydroxycut works a lot better if accompanied by moderate exercise(http://jn.nutrition.org/content/139/2/264.abstract)
Consumption of green tea is very good for your health because it has effects on body weight and energy expenditure. Green tea also reduces blood cholesterol levels, the incidence of cancers and is also a potent antioxidant. (http://www.ajcn.org/content/72/5/1232.short)
Green tea extract contains a potent antioxidant, EGCG, which is over 200 times more powerful than vitamin E in neutralizing the pro-oxidants and free radicals that attack lipids in the brain. It has been used for years as a powerful antioxidant which is also helpful in shedding fat.

Caffeine:

Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant often used to stay alert, awake and combat fatigue. This makes us active and provides us energy to do workouts and remian motivated.
As ephedra is now banned by FDA, caffeine is considered the safest alternative. Like Ephedra, caffeine increases mental alertness while providing additional energy for weight loss and exercise training.
In a clinical study, two months of treatment of obesity with caffiene resulted in reduction in body weight and body fat percentage in obese women. The major cause of these excellent results was attributed to the thermogenic response. (http://ukpmc.ac.uk/abstract/MED/8061728)

White Tea extract is a natural source that effectively inhibits adipogenesis (fat formation) and stimulates lipolysis(fat breakdown). (http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/6/1/20)

Oolong Tea Increases Metabolic Rate and Fat Oxidation in Men. Energy expenditure and calorie burning was significantly increased. In addition, fat oxidation (fat metabolism) was significantly higher when subjects consumed the full-strength Oolong tea.(http://jn.nutrition.org/content/131/11/2848.short)

I had gained quite a bit of weight and I decided to give Hydroxycut a try.On the first day I had more energy and I had increased thirst for water which is good. It took me about two months to start to see true results which were amazing. I took the pills for about five months and kept losing. I noticed loss in inches, which is better than pounds. Just don?t expect overnight results.

Lost 13 pounds in 30 days!

I have taken this product without excercise, just diet. I drink only water and green tea. I eat 3 small meals a day. I take 2 in the morning at 9am and the other 2 around 4pm right before I have dinner. I still sleep at night, no problem. I have no side effects, just occasional jitters from the caffeine but that has ceased. The first 14 days I was able to lose 9 lbs due to water weight. I?m very impressed with this product and will continue taking it, but with exercise of course, maybe it will help speed it up a little. Samantha21, Lodi, CA (http://www.walmart.com/ip/Hydroxycut-Advanced-60ct/12516992#)

I used to play video games day in, and day out, never went out. I was 5 pounds under 300. I purchased Hydroxycut, and followed the directions. Drank nothing but water, a lot of water. Ate a lot of raw salmon, and ate salads, never drank anything with sugar. Just pure healthy food. I also started walking 2-3 miles a day, then jogging. In 2 weeks, I had lost 35 pounds. In a month another 15 pounds. I?m 6?4, weighing at 240-245. I?m going continue it and hopefully get down to 220. I recommend this product, only if you?re committed to loosing the excess weight.
