Akavar
Claims that you can eat all you want and still lose weight.
BACKGROUND
Start the Diet Now Advertisement
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.

I have been taking Akavar for 2 weeks now. I dont want to loose weight I just want to be able to acutally enjoy christmas treats and dinners withour having to kill myself dieting and exercising.. I have eaten.. VERY VERY badly.. I mean like lots of peanut butter, cookies, chocolate, lots of carbs, drinking etc. I havent gained any weight.. I do a lot of stretching and lower body toning ( because that is where i put on all of my extra weight) I have noticed that my stomach is actually flatter now i think i am loosing inches. My weight hasent increased or decreased. just a note to everyone.. you can pretty much eat what you want for a week straight, then the next week cut your calories to 1200 or 1400.. ur body will burn so much more calories because it would be used to burning 2000+ calories daily. I have done some research on this . n e ways.. Akavar i believe is helping me maintain my weight.. I like it so far and I am far less hungry :)

There is a reason you feel full after taking one of these pills...it's the 2 glasses of water you drink with it! Of course drinking 2 glasses of water is going to fill you up. Give me a break. Don't take the easy way out...you're going to gain all that weight back. Eat the right foods and get out and move!

Hi everyine, My fiance and I just started taking akavar 3 days ago, so far hes lost 3.6 pounds and Iv'e lost 2.4. I don't know much about akavar but so far so good. I will right back in and let everyone know how its going. Also if you are looking to decrease your weight you might want to look into colonic irrigation. It sound awful, but its really not that bad. Friends of mine have had it done and its knocked off 16 pounds. Good luck everyone.

i just bought AKAVAR 20/50 and now i feel like a sucker! I read the website,the box and i thought only ann idiot would believe this.Their website does not contain any indepth info on the product.Thats what i get for not reading and just buying without doing my homework, oh well.

well, I tried it a couple of times, and I just had two yesterday, but last night my muscles were hurting so much in my legs, and my back was in so much pain. I think it works, but it isn't good to take it toward night fall.

Newsflash. Water fills up your stomach just like food does. Sure, it takes your stomach longer to breakdown solid food, but your stomach still has to digest water before it can be carried off through your bloodstream. So if you are supposed to take this pill with a full glass or two of water of water in only stands to reason that you are going to fill fuller faster. Hey, if you don't believe me, just try drinking a big glass of water before you eat your next meal. You will eat less and guess what...lose weight.

Its active ingrediant is caffeine! If you can't stand coffee, don't take this! How about: this pill is a fraud...

I found www.AkavarStore.com which has a lot of information on it about Akavar. I've been using akavar for about 3 weeks now and i've lost 12 pounds. It has worked for me anyways. I've recommeded it to some family and friends and for some it has done great and others not as good. So, I guess it just depends on the person. I'm sure glad I tried it out.

Today, i bought this akavar thing. Im only 17 years old, and i weight around 155. I feel very fat and even obese, idk why. Today, im going to start taking them (secretly). Im hoping i'll see results soon. If akavar works, i'll buy another bottle. Im also going to exercise and eat less.. hopefully that will help. My goal is to lose 10 lbs, which will bring me to 140.

I've been using it about a week and i'm down 4 lbs without changing my eating habits. I want to lose about 15 lbs total. What I noticed after about 3-4 days was I'm not as hungry between meals so I can eat what I want AT meals, I also am not snacking at night and I leave more food on my plate now as I feel full (I used to skip full and go straight to miserably stuffed)

Okay so I've been using this pill for a couple days now. I follow the instructions (take 2, 15 minutes before a meal) and I drink with two full glasses of water. I seriously feel full after poppin' 'em and I'm sure I figured out the way they work. They coat your stomach similiar to Pure Weight Loss's CarbX to help take all the carbs out of your body. I was having difficulty eating chicken yesterday because I really wasn't hungry. It really helps fill you up sooner. As for my weight loss I don't know yet I haven't stepped on the scale but I know this keeps me full and honestly I will be working out and eating healthy which will help me lose the weight but I won't be as hungry as I usually am because of working out so much. That's really the key to this pill. FYI It's not FDA Approved because if it was you'd have to get a prescription for it. Alli is the first diet pill ever to be approved by the FDA but if you read the label you'll be eating like your on a diet anyway so thats why you'll lose weight not from the pill but from eating less than 15g of fat each meal. Thats my two cents :)

Hi I Just finished a bottle of Akavar and I have lost 8.4 pounds so far. I really feel energenic maybe because I am use to drinking coffee. I do eat normal. I am kindof wondering if it is the akavar that is working or its all in my head. I still feel fat though and I only want to lose around 30 lbs all together

I literally have tried every diet possible along w/increasing and decreasing exercising, I keep a daily food intake diary, count calories, protein, carbs and use the GI Index. However, I never, never, could imagine by taking Akavar 20/50 could make such a great, positive impact on the way my body(especially my stomach) looks. I love the way Iook now. I only take 1 pill 15-30 min before I eat ( 7am then another 2-3pm) and I do treadmill at lunch 4 days a wk..take a mulitvitiamin at bedtime...I look good therefore, I feel great. Akavar 20/50 works if you just use a little common sense. I use to have to work out 5 days/wk extensively, now, I just do cardio for 30min and it is great..

I thought this may work. I haven't gained any weight and I have felt as if my appetite is smaller, but I havent lost any weight either. I don't work out so that may be the problem, but it does say if you work out and eat right it will help. I eat smaller amounts of junk food. Ha. I think we should all just eat smaller amounts of healthy food.

I am a dietitian, and supposed to know how to lose weight! I've been in great shape all my life till 2 years ago when I've started eating junk foods, regular soda, sweets, and lay down on a cauch watch TV. I've gained 22#, from size 4 to size 8. I've tried so many different pills, all the ones with clinical information, etc...none worked. I've just recieved my first bottle of ALKAVAR today. But, everyone should realize regardless of what the add says you must still make efferts, not dieting but watch what you're eating? Those pills which make you lose lots of weight in first 2-3 weeks, 40# or so, its because you lose your body fluids, if you lose 8-9# first 2 weeks with ALKAVAR, its because you're losing body fat, without exercise that's normal. I know what I'm doing wrong, and if after I stop the pills I gain it back then sham on me!

you can check out the ingredients at http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/dk/akavar.html. I started a few weeks ago and have lost weight, have energy and have really lost my huge appetite. No more snacking! But like every vitamin, mineral, or any supplements it is always common sense to talk to your physician. I have learned with the help of an herbal nutritionist that every body is different. Some things will work on some people, some will not. At least if it doesn't work on you after the first few weeks you can get a refund. As for me, it works.

I ordered akavar online and I recieved it very quickly! I have been using the product for a little under a month, and have found that I don't overeat anymore and I haven't been having some of the cravings that I used to. Also I the extra energy is helping me accomplish more throughout the day. I have lost 9 pounds so far... about 11 more to go!! im very pleased with the product so far.
