Weight Loss Pills and the FDA

You may assume that weight loss pills on the shelves have undergone a thorough examintaion by the FDA, but you would assume wrong. Just because a store sells a particular weight loss pill, does not mean it has undergone any kind of testing by any agency. In fact, what appears on the side of the bottle may not be the same as what appears inside the bottle. A company can bottle anything and sell it, until someone finally comes along and sends it off for lab tests. Don't be fooled America! We spend $35 Billion on weight loss products each year; don't get caught up in the wrong thing.

So now that I told you what not to spend money on, what should you spend your money on. The smartest thing you can do is begin to eat smarter and exercise first. After you have gotten past the initial weight loss, then you can start exploring supplements. Do the basics first. I'm not recommending anything on supplements right now. When I run across the miracle pill, I'll let you know.
