Does The Arctic Diet Work

The Arctic Diet is a relatively new product and not so much a diet (diet plan) as such but a capsule form weight loss pill.

It has been featured in the National UK press recently drawing attention to the use of seaweed and its benefits to weight loss.

The Arctic Diet started in Scandinavia and now reached across many European countries and is soon to be available to buy in the UK.

What Are Arctic Diet Capsules

Arctic Diet capsules are made from Norwegian brown seaweed – Fucus Vesiculosus, naturally grown above the Polar Circle.

The seaweed is harvested during the period of the midnight sun – where the sun shines for 24 hours straight during a few summer weeks in June.

Arctic Diet has been developed by Dr Sverre Paaske, a Norwegian scientist and doctor, and has been used extensively throughout Scandinavia.

Is The Arctic Diet Worth Trying

Diet capsules based on seaweed is not exactly a new concept. There is a diet product called Appesat that utilises the concept.

Appesat is available to buy in the UK over the counter and is manufactured by the people responsible for Lipobind

Proactol Weight Loss Pills Review

Proactol is a non prescription weight loss pill that has been available to buy since late 2005.

Proactol is very much a natural product and a world apart from some of the pharmaceutically produced weight loss products that are available via prescription.

The non prescription weight loss pill market is governed by a different (weaker) set of rules and regulations to the more drug based medicinal products and so this gives manufacturers license to embellish and overstate the efficacy of their products.

Is Proactol Clinically Proven

Recently the ERSP (Electronic Retailing Self-Regulatory Program) was formed to help curb outlandish claims made by manufacturers and assist the consumer to trust that the product they were intending to purchase did what it said on the tin.

With this in mind Proactol actively sought approval and it was deemed that there was reasonable basis for its general performance claims that Proactol helps reduce calorie intake, helps to reduce excess body weight, food cravings and appetite. Proactol is also Medical Device Type 1 and has the CE Mark of Approval

How Can Proactol Help You Lose Weight

Proactol is a natural fat binder and shares similarities with Xenical in so much as it can stop the absorption of approximately a quarter of dietary fat from being digested from food consumed. Or put another way – only 75% of the potential calories taken on will appear in the places you don’t want them to.

Celebrity Fit Club Nutritionist

Proactol is also a natural appetite suppressant that can help reduce food cravings and increase the feeling of satiety (fullness)

Proactol Side Effects

A completely natural product that to date is not proven to produce or cause any adverse reaction.

Proactol In The Media

Proactol first became critically acclaimed largely due its a appearance in national newspaper The Daily Express – 21 year old Laura Price shed a third of her body weight and six dress sizes with help from the fat binder. 

More recently The Daily Telegraph published the results of a survey in which thousands of successful slimmers were asked to reveal their top 5 ways to lose weight – Proactol was one of the 5. 

US publication Florida Style considered Proactol as one of the best ways to lose weight after childbirth.

Pure Hoodia Appetite Suppressant Review

Hoodia Gordonii is the most effective natural appetite suppressant to buy over the counter, in health stores and from the internet.

Hoodia Gordonii is better known as simply Hoodia – a cactus like plant that grows in inhospitable conditions in South Africa. There are a dozen genres of the Hoodia plant but it is only one, Hoodia Gordonii that can suppress appetite and reduce the cravings for foods.

Among the several dozens of Hoodia weight loss pills in existence in both the UK and across the Atlantic, one stands out above the others – Pure Hoodia. Produced by Pureslim Ltd – Pure Hoodia is the longest existing Hoodia product in the UK.

What Is Pure Hoodia

Pure Hoodia is exactly that – Pure Hoodia Gordonii. There are no other ingredients or additives present. Some other Hoodia branded appetite suppressants use Hoodia extract and cram 750mg, 800mg and even 1000mg into a capsule – whereas Pure Hoodia uses raw Hoodia Gordonii powder which equates to 400mg (400mg is the maximum capacity.) Read Pure Hoodia Success Stories

How Does Hoodia Work

Going back to Hoodia’s South Africa roots – it was the San Tribesmen of the Kalahari that first discovered that eating parts of the Hoodia plant would enable them to survive for days without feeling the effects of hunger. It is ironic that a region that suffers famine, drought and hunger would produce a diet product for the obese western world.

There is a substance within the raw Hoodia powder now known as p57 (or the p57 molecule) it is this one substance that is responsible for suppressing appetite.

“This ugly looking plant could be the cure for the obesity crises that is sweeping the western world.

It has no known side-effects, and contains a molecule that fools your brain into believing you are full.”

Tom Mangold BBC Correspondent

Taking this substance (p57) when hungry will diminish and decrease the feeling of hunger. This causes both a physical and mental reaction – you will eat smaller portions because your stomach will be full, your brain will not crave food and so negate the need for snacks between meals.

Is All Hoodia the Same

Just because a Hoodia weight loss product has the word “Hoodia” emblazoned across it, it does not necessarily mean it contains the p57 molecule.

Some Hoodia weight loss products are made from synthetic or replica materials and so useless for curbing appetite. Pure Hoodia has a CITES certificate and Proof of Origin certificate to validate its claims.

Is Pure Hoodia Effective

Pure Hoodia (the company) has been in existence since 1996 and is the best selling and most popular UK Hoodia product bar none.

Where To Buy Pure Hoodia

Pure Hoodia is available to buy direct from the manufacturers, Pure Slim who are based in UK and distribute Worldwide.

Xenical Fat Blocker Review

Xenical is possibly the most common, best known and most likely prescribed slimming pill in the UK. Xenical is the brand name of Orlistat, a weight loss drug or medication that is available only via visit to or consultation from a GP or doctor.

Xenical is specifically designed to treat obesity and is a pharmaceutical grade weight loss product that is not available to buy over the counter from the high street or from the internet without prior consultation from the medical profession. Not everyone qualifies for Xenical – only those with a high BMI (Body Mass Index) of over 30 would be considered.

Xenical can be found and purchased from certain sections of the internet – the black market demand for weight loss drugs is high but does not come without risk. If you are tempted to buy Xenical from the internet it is highly likely that you will not be buying Xenical Orlistat, but an imitation or replica product.

How Does Xenical Help Weight Loss

Xenical is a fat blocker – fat blocking and fat binding are the two most effective weight loss technologies that manufacturers of diet products use. Fat blocking is a preventative measure that stops the absorption of a percentage of fat from being absorbed by your body.

Up to 25% of deitary fat consumed can be stopped from entering your digestive system. Without a change to your current diet you are taking on a quarter less calories than you would without Xenical to explain the process more simplistically.

Side Effects Caused By Xenical

As Xenical is a prescription weight loss drug it can carry risk – this is another reason not to purchases Xenical but obtain via prescription.

As a percentage of dietary fat is blocked or stopped from entering your digestive system it has to leave somewhere and somehow. The usual less serious side effect is more frequent bowel movement. The change of bowel movements can be viewed as a positive side effect as it does prove that the fat blocking procedure of Xenical is working.

Other side effects can vary person to person – some of the more common are: headaches, oily discharge from rectum, diarrhoea and abdominal pain.

Does Xenical Work

Xenical has been the defacto prescription weight loss pill for over decade. Xenical is clinically proven and classed as a medical device.

Where To Buy Xenical

Unfortunately Xenical is via prescription or consultation only. If you are not considered at risk or dangerously overweight it is highly unlikely you will prescribed a course.

Alternatives to Xenical

Alli – More recently a non prescription and lower strength version of Xenical (Orlistat) was released into the market.

Read the Alli Review

Proactol – a non prescription fat binder that also works by stopping fat from being absorbed but without the oily discharge as Proactol binds with fat rather than just blocks.
