weight loss frauds
Posted Under: Michelangelo Weight Management Seminar, weight reduction
According to the FDA the following weight loss frauds are rampant:
False and misleading claims in weight loss ads are widespread. Since 2003, the member organizations of the Mexico, United States, Canada Health Fraud Working Group (MUCH) have taken more than 700 compliance actions against companies pushing bogus and misleading weight loss schemes. The FDA and the FTC are MUCH members under a Trilateral Cooperation charter agreement between the three countries. The agreement increases communication and collaboration among the three countries in the areas of drugs, biologics, medical devices, food safety, and nutrition.
As part of the MUCH weight loss initiative, the FDA sent Warning Letters to 25 firms that were promoting products with false weight loss claims. The FDA recently warned consumers not to use Emagrece Sim Dietary Supplement, also known as the Brazilian Diet Pill, and Herbathin Dietary Supplement. Both products are made in Brazil by Fitoterapicos and Phytotherm Sim. These products may contain prescription drug ingredients that could lead to serious side effects or injury. The FDA has increased efforts to prevent importation of the products. Consumers are advised not to use Emagrece Sim and Herbathin and to return them to suppliers.
My notes to reduce your weight:
- Only long term behavioral change work in helping you mange your weight and the first step is to change the words you use from weight loss to weight management or weight control.
- Eat more fruits and vegetables and less meat especially red meat.
- Exercise more including fidgeting and going up the stairs
- Eat slowly
- Enjoy your food more and thus feel satisfied with smaller portions.
- Learn self hypnosis and relax.
- Use smaller plates.
- Have a good sense of humor and laugh more.
- Park away from where you are going.
- Walk up the stairs instead of taking the lift.
