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.

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.

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..

well it most def calmed my cravings to eat...but it also made me go to the restroom about 30 minutes after each meal....i was taking adipex which is like $70 a bottle tried these for $20 and these actually calmed my cravings better than adipex

I started this morning and so far it's been working good. I don't feel the need to eat so much and I even felt like working out which I haven't wanted to do in weeks. I really hope that it continues to work well. I'll update again a week from now.

I started taking the pills Thursday July 22nd. I only took 2 pills, i had mad anxiety when i went out in public and i was speeding ballz. I usually have trouble going to sleep at night but i fell asleep just the same, so that part didnt change. It does suppress the appetite, and you see food and DO NOT have any ambition to eat it. I havent weighed myself yet nor do i think that i will until i've taken them for a few more days. If i still feel anxiety i think i'll have to stop taking them. OH, and they make you shit alot! ahah. So far, they are not bad. I bought them at a Walmart and they were cheap. About $20.

I go to the gym almost everyday and exercise for about 2 hours each time, I have a physical trainer, and I think I eat pretty healthy. I have been like this for a while and haven't lost any weight, I think having my gall bladder removed messed up my digestive tract. Anyways I took these pills and I have already lost 20lbs. They are a great weight loss aid!

I started taking the pill last month and the first two weeks I was on it I lost 17 lbs. I have to admit when I started the pill it scared me because the first two days the caffine made me really shaky, I don't get the harshness of the caffine anymore now that I have been on them a while but I have maintained my weight. I'm gonna try changing my diet a little more to see if it makes a difference.
