Have you ever noticed that diet pills and other fad diet-related items almost always have some sort of disclaimer message in addition to the usual FDA disclaimer. It usually says something like this:To lose weight use these pills in coordination with proper nutrition and exercise.
It's funny that even the most popular weight loss supplements bear this same warning. Do you know why that is? Can you guess why this message is on products that do absolutely nothing for weight loss?
Because proper nutrition and exercise are what work! If you could do that part, you wouldn’t need the pills. If you did both, it would work. It would also cost more and create additional hazards to your long-term health.
If your arm was hurting and some told you to eat a blueberry muffin, you probably wouldn't find that advice useful. But if the person said that along with rest and some anti-inflammatory medicine, a blueberry muffin would help your arm... you might try it.
Is it going to help your arm pain? Of course not. So let's cut out the blueberry muffins and just stick to the things that actually work for losing weight and don’t have extra costs and risk factors.
