There are many weight-loss myths roaming around the web in most annoying shapes and forms, especially as flash banners that just constantly blink into your face, promising you that you will lose 10 pounds in 5 days. If you know anything about weight-loss, this should make you mad. Beware of false promises and exaggerated claims. If a flashing image tells you that you can easily look like a super-model while in the same time maintaining your current lifestyle and diet, then you should know there is something fishy about that. Here’s three annoying, yet popular weight-loss myths.
Fast results
The types of ads we’ve mentioned above prey on insecure people who would do anything to lose some weight, but don’t have the time to implement the serious changes actually needed if you want to get results. Yes, diet pills can be effective, but they are dietary supplements, which means that results will not come as soon as you take the pill. Usually, it takes a few weeks to determine if a supplement is working or not.
Target areas
“Get rid of your belly fat without affecting any other area…” if only it were that simple. The metabolism is a complicated process which is sadly not guided by wishful thinking. Once you start gaining weight, you start gaining it all over the place (while some areas are more prone to fat deposits than others). Hence, when you start losing weight, it’s again all over the place.
All diet pills are the same
Not all diet pills work in the same way and have the same effects, albeit they’re united by a common goal. Some are prescription meds to people with an actual illness, while others prevent fat from being absorbed. Some are all natural and have stimulating effects and feeling of satiety. All of these have different ingredients, work in different ways, and are taken by different people.
