I get that is can be frustrating when it comes to weight loss struggles. I’ve had a few clients who have used diet pills in the past only to end up having even more struggles. 

In this episode, I’m going to be talking about a few of the dangers of diet pills and how they can affect your overall health. I get it, we feel that if we are overweight, we are risking our health…BUT do we really even know the cost these diet pills are putting on our health?

Which is the lesser of 2 evils? If you know me, you may already know the answer. If not, don’t worry, I’ll be sure to bring it all into the light in this podcast. 

For individuals with a strong desire to lose or maintain their weight, diet supplements may seem like a magical solution. The manufacturers of these products make fancy promises about the “magic” these drugs can do, but most of these claims are not backed up by clinical research. 

In fact, these drugs that promise to help you shed pounds or burn fat may hold hidden dangers to your health. In spite of the risks of using diet supplements, the demand for these products continues to rise, especially among individuals with eating disorders.

I’m just going to throw a few of the dangers out there real quick such as addiction, increased risk for heart attacks and strokes, ineffectiveness, along with multiple different side effects…not to mention the lack of sustainability. It may look tempting, especially if you’ve been battling that scale for more than half your life…BUT, before you go popping that pill, I want you to listen to this podcast before you make ANY decision.

Let’s dive in…shall we?
