Losing weight is a slow process, one that requires a commitment. Calorie counting, time at the gym, portion control and changing eating habits are not an easy think to do, but a new study shows a weight loss pill will people shed the pounds faster.
A personal struggle:“When it comes to losing weight it can’t happen fast enough,” Carmen Franks said. The 35 year old mother of two is trying to work off the extra 15 pounds she put on during her recent pregnancy. “I’d love for it to just magically go away but we all know that doesn’t happen.”
Franks is considering Xenical, a safe and effective weight loss pill approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. “If it helps me ditch the extra fat, I’ll try it,” she said.
In an ongoing study conducted by Karl-Franzens University in Austria, 83 percent of those taking Xenical lost a significant amount of weight. This medication is available online through a safe and reputable pharmacy.
Study highlights:
· The greatest weight loss was seen in the first four weeks of treatment (4.1kg lost) followed by patients losing a further 2 kg every 4 weeks to week 12.
· BMI was reduced by 2.9kg/m2 on average
· Waist circumference was reduced by 6.3cm on average. Excess fat around the waist is associated with insulin resistance, high blood sugar, high cholesterol levels and high blood pressure.
Expert opinion:
“This study shows the significant benefits of rapid and continuous weight loss in the first 12 weeks of treatment with Xenical. Not only are there associated health advantages, but patients may also improve their motivation to lose weight and experience greater satisfaction with treatment,” Professor Hermann Toplak said, the man leading the study.
“One of the biggest problems with weight loss programmed is that patients drop out because they do not experience early improvements in body shape or well-being. Rapid weight loss with Xenical means patients are more likely to experience these changes and consequently comply with treatment and succeed long-term on a weight management program.”
