Summary: The skinny on diet pills !
Review: The other day a gal wrote to a fitness website I am on and said," I am tired of dieting and exercising, please tell me what diet pill I can take and just get skinny quick."After reading "The Diet Pill Guide" I was able to tell her, there is no magic pill, just as most of sadly knew all along. The Diet Pill book lists over the counter, prescription and other supplements sold for weight loss. It lists products, brand names, ingredients, how sold, background and research, product claims, side effects, precautions and other information. A number of products are covered. Everything from A Aoqili Slim Soap (yes a soap that claims it makes you skinny as you wash with it), to Z zhi shi (citrus rinds of the bitter orange). And lots in between. Here you can learn the truth about slim fast , bee pollen, locust root, ginger, 5HTP and more. The good (green tea) the bad (fat trapper) and the ugly (ephedra) are all covered. A handy index at the back of the book makes it easy to look up the pill you were thinking of popping. One drawback is the book does not cover starch blockers. Since the book was published in 2002 starch blockers which are becoming more popular should have been included. Hence the 4 instead of 5 star rating. Overall a great little reference!
