Is There A Magic Diet Pill?

I've spent some time looking around, of course online :), looking for other people's experiences about those rather magically advertised diet pills. A diet pill sounds magic, doesn't it!

Something like:

I have a headache!

Honey! Take an aspi...and you'll be OK.

I have some extra pounds fat!

Oh dear! ... Just take some of those diet pills and you'll be ... (what you wish)!

... And hopefully for a long time!

If only it were so simple and effective!

Diet pills, after all, are medical pills, kind of drugs that may be taken only if you know they represent no danger for your body and well-being integrity. Such diet pills may cause, among others, kidney and liver damage. So don't use any before consulting a trustful specialist. Many such pills contain vitamins and mineral which may turn out to be not effective for your goal: short-term weight loss.

Herbal diet pill.. Over-the-counter.. "natural diet pill"

Such attractive green names! Though, I wonder how natural a natural pill is. Does such pill contain exclusively ingredients as natural as the name sounds? You know, the matter here, is that we are trying and playing with a complicated metabolism (yes, dear. I mean our fat body) whereas prestigious scientists in this field are rigorously stating:

" The limitation of drugs for obesity is that we still do not know fully the neural basis of appetite and how to modulate it. Appetite is clearly a very important instinct to promote survival. Arguably any drug that would abolish appetite may carry a high mortality risk and may be unsuitable for clinical use.

Because the human body uses various chemicals and hormones to protect its stores of fat (a reaction probably useful to our ancestors when food was scarce in the past,) there has not yet been found a "silver bullet", or a way to completely circumvent this natural habit of protecting excess food stores. Because of this, anti-obesity drugs are not a practical long-term solution for people who are overweight".

So, don't use such pills unless you are medically advised to.

Down or not down to diet pills? ...Not so evident, you must say!

Logically speaking, not all diet pills fall in the same category of long-term ineffectiveness and potential health danger. As not knowing fully the neural basis of appetite and the way to modulate it doesn't imply total rejection of every diet pill drug we may encounter. By the way, this very statement is valid for every other science we know. Do we know the basis ( all we need to know) of every other science? I guess not, otherwise we are no more humans. But this statement is very essential when it comes to what we ignore about our appetite whereabouts. Of course, isn't our body we talking about, here?

Although, there is no persuasive evidence that such diet pill help the way their producers claim, and historically, so many pills were ordered to be removed from the market by the Food and Drug Administration. Yet some diet pills if medically prescribed, in addition to a healthier lifestyle can yield to some positive results.

The golden rule here is that diet pills are essentially drugs, so be cautious the same way you are towards other kind of drugs.

We, humans, tend to be eager to reach results as soon as imaginable. Try to reach good results as reasonable as you can. Some extra pounds fat are better than probably hurting vital organs such as heart and lever. Take the necessary time to reach the same goal through healthier eating habits and enough body exercises, otherwise rely on self-acceptance and patience as a remedy till you get a better solution. Sure you'll get one!

Till next time, take care of your cells :)
