In this day and age, looking thin and toned has become more and more
important, especially for the younger generations. Being a young 22 year old
and a size 12/14, I am constantly worrying about how I look and trying to find
new fads that will help me shed a few a pounds the easy way!
When I was at University, diet pills were one of the fad's I turned to.
Now, I'm not talking full on powerful fat busting tablets and replacing meals
for them. I'm talking supplements that are, supposedly, meant to speed up your
metabolism and melt fat. During my "desperate measures" research, I
found a lot of articles suggesting that Apple Cider Vinegar, in large
quantities, burned fat and aided weight loss. So, I thought, why not!
I had been given £20 worth of Holland and Barrett vouchers so, as well
as my Holland and Barrett Apple Cider Vinegar tablets, I invested in some Nutrition Headquarters Fat Metaboliser pills, mainly because
the word "metaboliser", to me, means weight loss and well a pill that
metabolises fat sounded good!
So I bought these pills with my vouchers and started giving them ago. It
says on the bottles that with "healthy eating and an active
lifestyle" (or words to those effect) the pills can help aid weight loss.
Well, being a student, my diet was terrible and I spent most days lying in bed
watching TV eating cake. (Sounds bad but that’s genuinely what I did!). Don’t
get me wrong, not all students are like that, but I was the typical student
stereotype.
So, let’s be honest. The pills did nothing. I noticed no difference in
my weight or the way my stomach looked. With the Vinegar tablets, I didn’t take
as many as they suggested as, well, the smell and taste of the tablets was very
strong , obviously because they’re pure vinegar, so I struggled to swallow them
which could have contributed to the lack of effect they had. I do feel the
pills could aid weight loss when used properly, in conjunction with a calorie
controlled diet and exercise regime as they suggest. I still have half the
pills left in both bottles, and I’ve recently decided to better my health and
work on my fitness, so I’ve been thinking about trying them again. If I do, and
notice a difference, I will be sure to let you know!
