Dietary Food Supplements Essay, Research Paper

There are so many dietary food supplements out on the

market today. Most of them cause side effects that cause these

products to rust on the shelves. Others actually work, it

just depends on the person. Some of these supplements claim to

be a fat absorber that you take before you eat which makes you

absorb less fat in your body. Others claim to make you not

hungry which is not healthy at all. You cannot survive without

food. You should think of your body as a car, without fuel it

cannot go. If you buy one of the many fitness magazines

including: ?Fitness?, ?Shape? or ?Oxygen? many of the pages

contain weightloss supplements. One supplement is ?Xenical.?

When you combine this pill with a good meal, it may help you

loose weight. A good meal is consisted of grilled chicken

and vegetables, a nutritionally balanced meal. This is an

effective product if you are thirty or more pounds overweight.

Well, if you are that overweight and you begin to eat a

good meal, then of course you will loose the weight without

Xenical. You also have the weightloss supplement that helps

you build muscle as you work out. There are pills, shakes, bars,

they come in all different types. ?ProV60? is a powder that you

mix with a liquid. It is a high protein, low carbohydrate food

supplement. It basically robs your body of the carbohydrates that

you need to function. Another product is ?Thyrolean.? This

product is made to make you loose pounds beyond a certain

threshold. The set point theory states that your body is

genetically made to weight a certain weight and your body will

fight to maintain that weight, you cannot change this weight. In

other words this product is messing with your genetics. If you are

going to try one of these dietary products, I would first consult

your doctor. There are so many side effects and so many of these

products are not good for your body. The best way to tell I by

trail and error, but you may mess your system up. Some of these

dietary products contain things that you should not be putting

into your body, or they contain not enough of the nutrients that

you need. One of the best things that you can do to loose weight

is to exercise several times a week and eat healthier.
