Diet Pills

There seems to be a large surge of diet pills back on the market again. Recently I was asked about a very popular diet pill called Alli. This is sold over the counter and is used to help lose weight quickly. This pill is a drug that stops the pancreas from producing an enzyme that breaks down fat in the small intestine. Because the fat doesn't get broke down it doesn't get absorbed, cutting down on your calorie intake.

The problem is that some fat in the diet is needed and is very healthy. This drug does not allow any fat to be broken down. You do lose weight, but your body is not getting the necessary fat for proper body function.

I ask you, are you living to be healthy or to be thin? If your living to be healthy then give up the diet pill and begin to eat well, think well, and exercise well.
