Akavar

Claims that you can eat all you want and still lose weight.


BACKGROUND

Akavar 20/50 is a European weight loss pill that has achieved much success. It has made its move to the U.S. seeking the same. Akavar boasts that it is the ultimate fat cure and that you'll see the results you seek without any diet restrictions or inclusion of exercise.

Akavar is designed to restrict your daily caloric intake to less than normal. Without those calories that your body requires for energy, you'll start to use your fat reserves. This will of course cause you to lose weight and inches. However, you'll immediately gain back that weight should you stop using Akavar. The website offers little-to-know information about the product leaving open many questions about the supplement.


PRO
  • Promotes eating all you like and still seeing weight loss
  • Reduces urge to overeat
  • Do not have to count calories
  • Won't feel hungry
CON

Akavar 20/50 leaves a lot to be desired. Some of the more concerning details include:

  • Promotes a lifestyle without exercise and healthy diet
  • No FDA approval
  • Web site offers very little information
  • No published clinical research
  • Does not publish ingredients
  • Contains caffeine
INGREDIENTS

It takes a lot of research to find what is inside those little Akavar tablets, as the product's website bypasses any discussion. Akavar includes many caffeine sources including xanthine and green tea leaf. Other ingredients include yerba mate, guarana seed, ginger root, kola nut, Tibetan ginseng, cocoa nut, rice flour, yellow no. 6, red no. 3 and Gelatin, among many others.

EXPENSE

A 60-count bottle of Akavar 20/50 can be purchased for $39.99.

CONCLUSION

Akavar 20/50 leaves a lot of open questions- which really leads to concerns about both the product's effectiveness and impact on the body. With so many diet pills and supplements on the market, it is important for manufacturers to paint a detailed picture of the product to help consumers make the most educated decisions. Many diet pills and supplements provide all of the information that Akavar seems to have conveniently left out. It is also a little misleading that without diet and exercise you can still lose weight. Anyone who has ever committed to losing weight knows that without important changes to diet and exercise, results are often not achieved.

Common Misspellings

I started taking Akavar 6 days ago and have lost 5 lbs. It has really reduced my appetite. Lots of energy too!! I don't understand how all the skeptics say this is a scam. I think it works as it promises!

So far they work for me. I lost 4 pounds in 4 days. I've tried other diet pills and not lost any weight with them so I'm happy so far.

I've been taking these pills for a few months now, and they do seem to be working really well. I used to take Hydroxycut, but that wasn't working much at all. With Akavar, i am actually less hungry, and have more energy. I also workout at the gym and in my home, which probably plays a big part. I do eat healthy as well. I take the pill because along with excersize and a healthy diet, Akavar helps with losing wight MUCH quicker. I used to work out a lot, but it was taking me FOREVER to lose weight, and when I started taking Akavar, I noticed much change in just a few weeks! I've heard it isn't the best diet pill, and that there isn't much info on it, but it's working, so it must be good, though I havn't tried it by itself, with no exsersize and eating a lot....lol. It also contains ALL NATURAL things, so it must not be bad for you.

Just bought them today - can't wait to see the results. FYI at my Costco they have an instant rebate on them at the register making a box of 90 only 13.99 - that's why I'm trying them - wish me luck!!

I have been taking these pills on the recomendation of the health food store.

To date I have lost 50lbs and am still losing more.



I tried many other "diets" and other diet pills and nothing has worked like this.

Just from the energy that you get from these is remarkable.



I am on other medications for other things, and these pills DO NOT react with anything.



I have recomended these pills to family and friends. They have tried them and love them as well.



As with life, everone is different and just because they didnt work for some people does not mean they dont work or that the company is lying about them working

The pills did not work for me. My initial weight 170 at the time I began taking the pills. I've completed the first 90 capsules my weight 170 lbs. No change. The pills did not work for me. Bottomline WE ALL must exercise. I'm going to start walking 20 mins per day, and after the first 30 days, i'll step on the scale.
