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.
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.

well i've been taking the pills for several days now, and yes i get an energy rush...which leads to a crash. i usuallu take them in the morning before work and i just get rush and work my ass off, then i feel a little tired.after working 6 hours i take them again, there i go working like a mad man. before i would get a stomach ache, but now i guess my body adjusted to it and i have more controlled eating without endulging. its great and i look forward to results in 2 weeks as printed.
I have tried diets, working out, bootcamps, personal trainers - - you name it, I've done it. I've never had this much success this fast. I bought the pills last Friday. Started taking them immediately that morning. I was 182 then. Today, Wed., April 1, I weighed 172.4 this morning. I must admit that while a bit shaky at first, I have increased my activity level overall. I do the Wii Fit program and walk at least 3 times a week. My husband is already amazed at the changes he sees both physically and he loves the new confidence I have as a result of it. I am a true believer. I started taking 2 pills before lunch and then again at dinner. I am now taking 2 pills at lunch and only 1 before dinner because I'm just not hungry. I already do all of the right things like no fast food, soda, sweets, etc., which is why I think the acceleration of my loss has been so significant. Good luck, everyone.

Hey everyone! So I have been on Akavar since Friday. This weekend we celebrated my dad birthday and had so much food with all sorts of fats and with so much calories! I DID NOT EVEN CRAVE IT! In fact I was so grossed out by seeing what was on the grill I just had to walk away. And normally I would eat away til I can say no more. LOL We had birthday cake at the party. NOT EVEN A TRY! This stuff really controls your apetite. It's amazing. I came into work this morning and weighed myself! I am at 165.0 I have lost 5 lbs in 4 days!!!! The awsome part is that I lost them over the weekend. Normally if I loos any weight it will be during the week and then it comes right back on the weekends. I love it! I have so much energy and I am so alert! No headaches and the tummy aches were gone right after the first day. I will check in soon!

I LOVE THIS STUFF! No side effects! Yes you can indulge and it's like awesome!
i took my first one yesterday. as far as energy...i didn't really feel much different. actually i felt more tired than usual. but i don't know. i don't really care about having energy. i just want to lose weight. but last night i also had a little tummy ache. felt kind of like menstrual cramps, not too bad. but i'm also doing just 2 pills a day becuz i'm a little sensitive to the caffeine. maybe i'll start taking 2 at a time in a week or two. i'll let you all know how it goes. i want to lose about 50 pounds.
Ok so all these side effect are real. I'd honestly like to say that this is a real diet pill, but how i lost weight was much of a blur. In senior year of high school I was 5'4'' and 180lbs I started taking these pills and started skating. I would basically starve myself and most of the day I'd be in a semi mentally-lost state. In-short when I stopped taking the pills I was about 160.
Im not sure if I lost that much weight because I was WAY overweight or because of the pills and my diet. But IF my case I lost about 20 pounds in three weeks and its stayed off for the most part, but its really unhealthy and dangerous so BE CAREFUL. ALWAYS TAKE LESS THAN TWO AT A TIME!!!!
ok!!! So I took the pill yesterday and I did feel kinda of weird. I noticed that I had so much more energy. I definitly noticed the decrease in appetite. Normally when I get home from work I go straight to the kitchen and munch away. Yesterday evening I did nothing but laundry, cleaning and did not thing of food at all. I did have a little tummy ache, but thats about it. NO CRAVINGS and no thoughts of eating! I love it so far! I fell asleep at about 10:00pm and had a wonderful nights sleep. No jitters just energy! This morning I came to work and weighed myself and I am now at 167. even. I also took 1 pill. I figure I strt out slow and not get carried away. Maybe it's water retention I have lost.... I quite don't know but so far so good. I will check in soon and hope for the best! Thanks for the great support! Good Luck everone!

i cannot finish my meals anymore. which is good. i will let everyone know how much i lost next week. i also use the bathroom everyday now.
I started taking the Akavar 2 days ago, the 1st day I took it before lunch with the water, I tried to eat a hamburger but felt sick after about 2 bites, and same every meal since then? I am taking 2 pill twice a day. This evening I felt like the incredible hulk around my daughters I was very easily agitated my face feels flushed and my heart is not beating fast but very loudly like my ears are pulsating... has anyone experinced the same thing?
I have been researching this product for a while and when i finally have enough money to go out and buy this product i did. I sat in my walgreens for almost an hour reading everything about this product and over looking the side effects and compared them to the other pills on the shelf. I am the type of person that can loose about 10-15 on my own and then cant go any further and i have been trying for years, i took my weight today and i currently weigh about 162.3 lb my goal, i would like to be about 120 lb. i'm young and I'm tired of being being this weight size. i don't look like i am 162 and i know a lot of this is because of my muscles but i want a smaller weight size and actually wanted to feel comfortable in a bathing suit at the beach, plus i have my college graduation and i just want to knock peoples socks off with the way i look, but anyways so i started taking them and honestly i wouldn't recommend them to anyone. I would like to if the people who took this pills actually had some of the side effects listed, such as a rapid heart beat, dizziness, headaches, or anything more extreme then the following?
because I did and i was only on my 2nd day, i took 2 pills before i ate at work and then an hour later my heart was pumping and i couldn't breathe and almost passed out. my vision went blurry and i was sweating. I got sent home from work and the moment i fell asleep, my breathing was deep and I wasn't getting enough air. I know it was only 2 days but honestly i was so scared and i will not resort to these pills ever again!
I USE THE PILL BUT IT LEAVES ME SHAKIE AND I GET A STOMACH ACHE
BUT I TOTALY SEE THE RESULTS IT IS DEFINATLY WORK THE ACHE.!!
