Are Diet Pills the Secret to Weight Loss ?

By Jane Moore

People often wonder whether diet pills are the secret to weight loss. The answer is a qualified no, or I guess, a qualified yes depending on how you look at it. Many people have some stubborn fat that they can't lose or have otherwise reached a weight loss plateau. The right kind of diet pill can be a big help to any type of weight loss regime, but diet pills alone do not result in weight loss.

Plenty of research has been done on finding a magical diet pill, but the unfortunate reality is that any diet pill that will allow significant weight loss without additional efforts on the part of the user, have been determined to be unsafe. There are however plenty of diet pills on the market that have been proven safe, and effective. The question is, what does effective mean? It means that taking these diet pills will effect some weight loss, but in order to reach the goals that a typically overweight person would set, diet pills alone will not be enough. In addition to diet pills, there are also diet supplements which could also be a help in your weight loss goals, by boosting metabolism, or helping with vitamin and mineral balances to give you more energy.

One of the most well known diet pills called Alli falls in the category of diet pill called 'fat blockers'. A stronger prescription only version of the same diet pill is called Orlistat. These types of diet pills block fat in your diet from being absorbed into your body. This gives you a little more control over the calories you consume, even if you don't have perfect self-control over the foods you eat. Even though you require a prescription for Orlistat, Alli can generally be found in most US drug stores.

It doesn't matter how much research you do to find an effective and safe diet pill, the fact of the matter is that without adjusting your lifestyle to promote weight loss, simply buying a diet pill is not going to lose the weight for you. And a lifestyle which promotes weight loss is essentially one which includes an appropriate amount of healthy foods, and a fitness program designed to keep you fit and promote fat loss. It may be hard to change bad habits all at once, but make small changes towards a fit and healthy lifestyle, and you will begin to see results eventually. A lifestyle change is for life, so it is something you should adjust to slowly so that you can continue those habits forever.

Something that you can do to help you towards this goal right now are to make some small changes to your current diet plan. It is a known fact that the frequency and time of day that you eat has a big effect on the way your body absorbs food and deals with its metabolism. A useful change might be to promise your self not to eat past a certain time of the evening. Evening snacks are one of the worst offenders when it comes to unburned calories. Another small change is not to skip breakfast. Eating a breakfast of whole or natural foods, including some amount of protein, is the best way to get your metabolism started early in the day. Also, getting yourself fuel early in the morning gives you more energy to get going, which will end up with you burning more calories that you would had you not made time for your morning meal.

Do your research. Investigate the different types of diet pills that are available on the market. However, do not spend any money on diet pills if you are unwilling or unable to make complimentary lifestyle changes. Combined with proper diet and moderate exercise, diet pills can really help you lose weight. - 17268
