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

OMG it was purrrrrfect, it was loose...so am very very pleased...i cant wait to see what the scale will look like after when my "aunt flow" leaves....I know I will be shocked...I even have my sister give it a try... posted Aug 5th, 2009 3:42 pm Profile send message  Message

I am starting Akavar today and hoping for the best, I tried eating a reduced calorie diet and excercise but the pounds didn't seem to fall like I had hoped. I thought cutting my calories to about 2000 when I was probably eating about 4000 would make a much alrger difference plus drinking a ton of water and very little to no soda. I am going to give this a try and see how it does. I am about 125 pounds over what I should be for my height and I am sick of being this unhealthy and obese. I am going to try to keep my calories down and continue with the excercise and see how that goes. I will keep you posted every so often to let you know the progress! I am so happy to hear all the good news from the people posting here about the weight loss, energy, and happiness that seems to stem from this product! Keep up the good work! posted Aug 4th, 2009 3:08 pm

Well, starting on the Akavar20/50 today on August 3. I did a little reading after I bought the $20 bottle.

I weigh 153.5 at 5'4". I'm a healthy weight, but could stand to loose a few lbs. I have a pretty sedentary lifestyle, so we'll see how this thing works for me. I'm going to start taking a walk to my town's marina and back which is about a mile both ways.

I'm a little nervous and scared because of the horror stories I've been reading on this website, but I suppose there are side effects to anything and everything that's out on the market today.

I'll post again in a few days to update results.

okay this is my third day.....i also think it is important to let folks know how it is initially......here's my 2 cents.....I have been having very hot spells...i think this is due to the thermogenics it may contain, i do have a lot of energy when i take it....no shakes. i have been getting a little headache, i also have been using the bathroom more often and earlier than ususal, i also notice my apetite is somewhat smaller, and some things just do not appeal or taste good to me. i will reduce my intake to one or two pills per day....i do not like the hot flashes....i have lost about 2.5 pounds with out changing my diet or excercise. posted Jul 29th, 2009 11:05 pm Profile send message  Message

i have been struggling with weight loss since I had my gall bladder removed after I had my son in 2005, i swear i gained about 50 lbs in a year, and after I had my daughter in 2007 its been hard to loose weight. Before i had my son i was at 190, which i loved the way i look, now Im at 272. so I have been on the Akavar for 2 days now, but I have only been taking it once a day for now. But I have noticed more energy, thirsty more, and using the bathroom more.. I'm not really hungry and an apple will feel me up.Just becareful dont drink more than one coke with this or you will start shaking..well i know i did.. posted Jul 28th, 2009 10:33 pm
