Best Weight Loss Supplements Weight loss supplements are available as pills, powders and capsules. These supplements prove fruitful, only in combination with diet and exercise. Country mallow or heartleaf raises the calories burnt and thus reduces the appetite. Ephedra decreases the appetite. The major issue with diet pills are the side effects. Ephedra results in hypertension, sleep apnoea, strokes, seizures, heart arrhythmia and so on. It is also life threatening and is not approved by the FDA.
Bitter orange is analogous to ephedra: burns the extra calories. Chitosan supplements inhibit the absorption of dietary fat. Chromium helps in building muscles and increases the muscles mass. Though it reduces the fat, overall weight loss in a significant manner is not seen. Green tea extract increases the metabolism of fat and calories. It contains more caffeine and side effects, such as vomiting, flatulence, diarrhoea are seen.
Guar gum increases the satiety level and decreases the appetite. Intestinal obstruction is seen, in case of reduced water intake. It is safe for consumption, though weight loss is not seen in a significant manner. Hoodia gordonii decreases the appetite, though weight loss is negligible. Conjugated linoleic acid reduces the body fat. Nevertheless, weight increases, as the muscle mass increases.
