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.

Common Misspellings

Akvar, Akavare, Akavar 50/20, Akavar 2050

i am 6ft 3 and weighed around 220, i stole the bottle from my store to see what the fuss was all about and on the first day i took it i didnt eat allll day long except for some beef jerky, the first weekend it was like that in which i would only eat cereal and jerky, i was never hungry but that changed in about 4 days, i became immune to it in a way that i still have an appetite but it does work in that i dont over eat....ive lost around 8 pounds in a week... posted Oct 23rd, 2008 11:42 pm

Me again. The dancer. I've lost 2 pounds in 4 days, which for me is completely unheard of. The only time I have lost weight this rapidly is when I ran 5 miles a day and ate nothing but salad and grilled chicken and drank nothing but water. Because of my already extremely healthy lifestyle, it is usually very difficult for me to lose weight.



The first day, I didn't sleep at all, and I stayed very dizzy, jittery, and sick to my stomach. Now it has been a few days and my body has adjusted great. I have no side effects AT ALL...only not quite as hungry, and I have TONS of energy!



I definitely recommend this to anyone who has had difficulty in the past losing weight! posted Oct 23rd, 2008 8:40 pm

OMG....I love it! It is my third day and I feel great. A bit of dizziness yesterday but nothing that lasted more than 5 minutes. As i mentioned before, I started off with only two pills...but since I don't feel the jitters or any other serious side effects I am bumping it up to my third pill before 12 or 1. Also, the energy is excellent...at about 9:30 I am ready to go to sleep though, and I sleep all night. I have not weighed myself yet and won't be until Tuesday....will keep you posted! posted Oct 23rd, 2008 9:48 am

I have a very powerful question and please don't think bad about this. Does anyone have any knowledge in respect to Akavar 20/50. Akavar 20/50 is a european diet pill that promotes automatic caloric restriction. I do know something abou it, but if I can find an even better expert in this kind of drug, then my questions regarding it will be answered. First off, if you eat food while taking Akavar20/50, I know you will restrict the calories, but lets say you eat healthy foods like vegetables and fruits; surely you will restrict thoses calories but will you restrict their HEALTH benefits as well, such as calcium, vitamins, etc? posted Oct 22nd, 2008 9:34 am

This prodcuts makes me lose no less than 2 pounds each day. I eat ceareal every morning, random fastfood for luch, and nothing but water after my last 2 pills. I take 4 pills a day and I take the last 2 before 1:00pm because it causes me insomia. I am 5'3, and I currently weight 140. These do not cause you wright rebound. I know because I took them for 2 months, then I stopped for since then. I think I will go back to taking the akavar all the way until I become 120lbs. I want to look hot and my new appearance along with my rapid weight loss will guarantee me a whole new way of living. I will keep you guys posted if anything comes up. posted Oct 19th, 2008 8:38 pm

I am an extremely active person that is nowhere near overweight. I am a ballet dancer and I dance 6 days a week. With all that excercise you'd think I'd be tiny, right? I'm 5' exactly and I weigh 120. I suppose to some this is tiny, but not in comparison to my classmates. I'm not anorexic, I just want to lose about 10 pounds or so, to shed a little fat around my waist and on my thighs. It was much easier to dance at around 100 pounds, but when college started, the weight kept coming on. I've been 120 for 2 years now, and I can't seem to shed those few pounds!

I'm trying Akavar today for the first time. 2 pills before lunch and 2 before dinner. It's now 12:00 and I'm awake but I'm tired. I'll keep you updated. This is 10-19-08. posted Oct 19th, 2008 12:07 am

It is exactly 18 days, and i have gone from girl212pounds to girl 191 pounds. so i am doing great. I exercise 4 days a week and eat right. I cheat at times, and endulge in mexican food and chinese, but i always make sure i am exercising more. My biggest problem is my cognac. its hard for me to do away with alcohol.

I dont know if everyone has been experiencing this, but i tend to feel like throwing up every time i eat too much, or eat food that i know is not right. My friend thinks that i might be becoming bulimic, but i disagree coz that feeling only comes when i eat fast food, or over eat. posted Oct 17th, 2008 10:17 pm

so ive been taking it for about two days now, and i dont ever feel hungry, usually i snack all the time. im 5'3 and weigh about 140. im not overweight at all, i just wanna look a little better. i dont own a scale but i can for sure tell that my body looks different. and for all the people that say it doesnt work, DONT EAT A BUNCH OF JUNK. sure, it says eat whatever you want, but you wont see the best results. all i do it go about a mile or two on the eliptical and drink water. i probably wont weigh myself because i will lose fat and gain muscle. GOING OFF YOUR WEIGHT DOESNT MEAN ANYTHING. if you look better, be HAPPY. and ive had no bad side effects, and if you dont, dont take it. losing weight isnt worth your LIFE. i promise you ill stop taking it too if i have bad side effects. but i really like it! posted Oct 16th, 2008 2:52 am

Hello people, this is my first time submitting my experience on diet pills. My first diet pill was akavar 20/50, and I must say the energy was oustanding. To get to the point I want to ask a question about akavar 20/50. Is it TRUE that it will cause weight rebound after I stop. I know that if I eat stupidly after I stop taking akavar20/50 I will gain weight, but what if I eat the same thing I was eating while I was taking akavar 20/50. I have been eating on mostly plain fresh tomatoes, brocolli, yogurt, ham sandwitches, and cereal every morning. posted Oct 15th, 2008 10:02 pm

Just started taking Akavar this morning. Feeling a little burning in my stomach, but nothing that actually would be noticeable if I wasnt looking for it. I am going to start off with just one pill today for it is my first time with any diet pill (just to be on the safe side). Tomorrow I will take 2 because I no that I will be up early enough in the morning to take the first one. I cant afford to lose sleep. My last pill will always be before 1230. I will keep u updated. I am going to weigh myself on Saturday morning and post if anything or nothing has happened so far. It is only wed. That gives me three days to see if there is a difference. I will also be watching what im eating, but EATING STILL and maybe a little activity. posted Oct 15th, 2008 11:46 am

I posted b4 and still have been getting great results =) i lost another 8 pounds in 4 days when i upped to 2 pills a day right b4 lunch ... I suggest only 2 pills a day right b4 ur lunch not supper or yea u should experience headaches dont go and say ohh im smart i can take 4 pills right in a row and have nothign appen to me (Blondie) thats dumb.... name one pill you can do that with? This WORKS but you cant expect to just sit there and say oh lemme do nothign and eta wht i want nothing happens without a lil work .... common sense guys. I like the energy burst that i get from this pill it lasts from about 11:30 to when i finally feel tired at around 10:30 p.m. Give this a chance cut ur calorie intake down by about 10% and dont drink too much water or ull reatin it and gain weight duh. So normal amounts of water, take 2 b4 lunch and cut down calories some and you be fine posted Oct 10th, 2008 8:25 am
