Zyatrim: Another junk weight loss pill? part 2

Zyatrim is heavily marketed as a revolutionary weight loss pill available without a prescription. It is claimed to be thermogenic, meaning it can dissolve fat and generate calories. The manufacturers use fancy names like apoptosis meaning that it induces the fat cells to die prematurely and Voila, you become thin in a few hours. The pill is supposed to be taken twice a day. One takes Zyatrim until the desired weight is reached.

The website claims that the weight loss induced by Zyatrim is permanent because the fat cells are destroyed for ever. And what is astonishing is that it starts to work within one hour.

What is even more incredible is that this so called reputable company also has a whole page where it trashes every other weight loss pill. Not a very professional way to conduct a business. If Zyatrim worked, why not let it effectiveness do the talking? And just to add some more information- Zyatrim is not approved by the FDA.

The ingredients listed in Zyatrim are extracts of Acacia Rigidula. Acacia Rigidula is a tree which grows in Central America, including Mexico. For decades it was observed that this plant was eaten by the wild goats that never got fat. Other ingredients that have been extracted from this tree and included in the formulation include methylsynephrine, phenylethylamine, Cassis nomane, theobromine, Yohimbine and ECGC. This combination is said to reverse the weight gain.

What does Zyatrim cost?

A month’s supply of Zyatrim is only $50, of course the more you buy the bigger the discounts (if a pill worked that great, would any company sell it for less, especially a weight loss pill?).

Now to the facts. There is ZERO evidence that Zyatrim works. There are no clinical trials nor is there a single piece of scientific information which can back up claims made by the manufacturer of Zyatrim. In fact, all over cyberspace there are many individuals whose testimony counters what the manufacturers says. The refund policy is dubious and money is never refunded. The ingredients listed are nothing special. These ingredients have been around for centuries and asides from working like a caffeinated product do nothing else.

Does anyone really believe that the FDA would allow a weight loss product to be sold online without a prescription if the above listed ingredients listed were present? Despite reports that extracts of this tree contain potent alkaloids and other chemicals, these results have never been verified in a scientific laboratory and are considered to be a hoax. There is no mention of Zyatrim in any scientific research study.

The economy is difficult today and in such times there are always charlatans who prey on other people’s hopes and dreams. Zyatrim is not the pill you should take to lose weight. The plant, Acacia Rigidula., from which Zyatrim is derived, is best left for the wild goats in Mexico. In other words- it is CRAP.

If you want to lose weight, start walking more, eat less and avoid dubious products like Zyatrim. This proven method is cheaper, works and will save you money- try it.
