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 bought akavar last night and I started taking them this morn , 2 before breakfast and I still ate becuz I was starving. I didn't get hungry until 8 o clock then I took 1 pill and I waited but was still starving. Is it working? Or should I wait this week 2 see. I'm getting bummed cuz I still feel hungry after I take them. Any suggestions ???
hey, i am thinking of going out and buying akavar i weigh 145 and i want to weigh 120-125. i am going back home and i havent been home in 2 years and i don't want everyone to see the weight i have put on.
will i lose the weight in around 1 month and a 1/2?
if not how much do you think i will lose?
btw i am a 17 year old girl and i am 5'3
I found after my first use of akavar 20/50 that i wasnt as hungry and i couldnt even finish my lunch! No dizziness or anything, seems to work right away! hopefully i can lose the weight i want.

I just bought this 5/13/09 and I am praying that with a low cal diet and some intense walking it works. I am 5'8" 173 and would like to get down to 155. It seems so impossible because I have been trying to reach this goal for a couple of years now so wish me luck!!!
WOW. The morning after i started taking them, i jumped on the scale, and lost 3.2 lbs. In ONE day. It's like it's just falling off. I have struggled with my weight since, well, forever. Always busting my ass working out and strict dieting, but nothing ever paid off. I thought that this is just the way i was meant to be. But seeing the weight lost on the scale.. it's incredible. It gives me motivation now, seeing that it can happen so i push myself even more. I barely eat, and i'm not hungry at all! I love this pill. 100% reccomend to anyone.
I just started taking Akavar yesterday...and I wasn't able to even eat half of what I normally ate for lunch or dinner. I don't feel jittery at all. However, I think I may have to only take one pill before dinner, I had a little trouble sleeping the first night I took them...woke up a few times during the night.
However, I have never had first day results like these from other diet pills. Perhaps we found our magic weight loss pill.
Oh by the way, walmart carries Akavar in a bottle w/ 72 capsules for 19.99 =]
Good amt of energy with just half dose and lost 9lbs in 2 weeks but I did change my portion sizes on what I ate but still ate everything I wanted... The energy gave me the motivation to make up my own type of cardio routine that I do with my children that is very unstructured yet allows me to raise and sustain and elevated heart rate which helped me rid myself of most of my kangaroo pouch which was my main troublespot..... Thanks but I don't know if it would work if you did anything but take the pill it has too maybe not with the same results for everyone but I feel healthier than I did before taking it....

I just started them today, and i've had no appetite. It's a wonderful feeling. I still force myself to have small snacks, because it's just plain unhealthy to starve. I do work out daily, and take long walks 3-4 times a week, so i'm hoping for some loss with this pill. No jitters, no sleeplessness. I've tried MANY other diet pills (stackers, slimquick, NV, zantrak) and have had no results from them. Alot of them left me feeling like i had too much energy, like my body wanted to go go go, but my brain was so tired. These pills are wonderful so far though. It's a nice balance of alertness, not over energized. Most the other pills eventually within 4 hours i would be STARVING.. it's not like that with these. I'm just not hungry. And when i do eat, i feel completely full, like i just left a buffet. Haha. I'll keep updating, i'm at 159 right now, and on a small frame of only 5'0 tall, that's alot. I'm aiming for 115-120.
Hello, I have been talking to a co-worker about taking Akavar and I have a few questions. I am currantly 165lbs 5'4 I want to lose about 20-30lbs. I have a gym membership and wanted to start going again also. May be a silly question but would this be a good idea to take the Akavar and still attend the gym? Also I have been reading all of your great weight lose comments above and wondered if it was possible to maintain the weight once you've reached the goal? Also how do you go about starting the pill...schedule?! Please any help would be appreciated :) Thanks ladies!!!

I picked up these pills yesterday, and I have to say, my appetite is definitely suppressed. I was so close to going back to prescription pills, but I think I found the golden bullet here. It feels like the meds swelled in my stomach to decrease my appetite. It makes me feel like I've just eaten a full plate of spaghetti! Very interesting effects. I will be interested in where I am with these pills in a month. I weigh 168 lbs this morning, and my goal is 110 lbs, which is an appropriate weight for my 5'2 frame. I will keep y'all posted! :-) Happy Mother's day all!
I started using this about 4 months ago and within 2 months I went from a size 18 to a size 12. a 12 is still tight, but I can squeeze into it none the less. Now I haven't changed my eating habits entirely, but I do play soccer as well. Even in my off season though I was still losing quite a bit. I haven't had any bad side effects from the pill. I can say it is not for everyone, however...I love it;)
it work like a dream come true
