Lipozene

A high fiber supplement clinically proven to help you lose body fat.


BACKGROUND

If you don't want to just lose weight, but pounds of body fat, Lipozene is for you. Never mind that that message is a bit perplexing. What else do you want to lose but "body fat"?

That's not the only strange or negative message sent in the video testimonial that is displayed on the Lipozene homepage. The general message is not very responsible either: I don't need to change my diet or activity level to lose weight.

Magic pill marketing is not the way to go. So, criticism aside, what is the make up of Lipozene? Glucomannan. That's it. You don't see very many weight loss supplements that put all of their eggs in one basket. Glucomannan is a dietary fiber that promotes satiety.

One study showed that glucomannan helped people lose an average of 5.5 pounds. The study was made of obese individuals, who would take one gram of glucomannan and 8oz. of water an hour prior to three meals a day, during an eight week period.

PRO
  • Lipozene's sole ingredient has been shown to help with weight loss
  • Helps users lose body fat
  • High in dietary fiber
CON
  • Promotes not changing diet or lifestyle to lose weight
  • The maker of Lipozene has previously been in trouble with the Federal Trade Commission
  • FDA has not approved Lipozene, or products containing Glucomannan to treat obesity
EXERCISE

There is no exercise prescription for consumers by Lipozene.

INGREDIENTS

Lipozene contains glucomannan, a 100% natural fiber from the konjac root.

CONCLUSION

Lipozene with its only ingredient Glucomannan appears to be nothing more than a high-fiber supplement. However, if you're buying Lipozene for just one ingredient, the high fiber, you could get a similar effect from a high-fiber cereal or making sure you eat fibrous vegetables. It would be more affordable. As with any weight loss program, you should seek your doctor's advice before starting. Adding a high-fiber supplement to your diet should be advised by your doctor as well.

You can buy 30 pills for $7.00 total on ebay. Duh, you have to work out. Anything worth having never comes easy! The whole problem with body fat is getting off your fat ass and doing something about it!!! It doesnt hurt to have a little help along the way!!! posted Jun 17th, 2009 12:25 am

Even though it doesn't tell you that you should cut back on eating...if you're trying to lose weight you should try to at least cut a little anyway!

And exercise is just plain healthy...why anyone wouldn't want to exercise or complain that they don't have time to do it...that's just dumb - if you have time to pop french fries, sodas and desserts in your mouth...you could have done at least a little bit of exercise...give me a break!

I'm currently taking Lipozene and it's helping me out very well. I can definitely tell it's helping me lose inches in my problem areas (back, belly, thighs).

When I weigh myself though, it's not a dramatic loss, so don't expect that...just one to three pounds every couple of weeks...I'm thinking I would be losing the bigger pounds if I wasn't offsetting it with muscle building exercise.

Face it people, there is no easy way out of losing weight, there's not a miracle drug (even if there is an almost-miracle drug, it has horrible side-effects) that is going to take me from a size 22 to a size 2 overnight!

You just have to work at it, show a little effort.

Good luck! posted Feb 5th, 2009 7:35 pm

I read about Lipozene on Infomercial Scams website. The complaints are off the charts! They give your bank info to third parties who debit your account or credit card without your consent. Glucomannan does NOT burn fat, it just reduces your appetite by making you feel full. Scam, Scam, Scam!! posted Sep 5th, 2008 8:26 pm
