Lipozene

The DAI Rank:
#9

The Product:
Lipozene® by the Obesity Research Institute

The Claims:
12 Clinical Studies have lead the Obesity Research Institute to claim that using Lipozene® will “reduce body fat” where “78% of each pound lost is pure body fat.” According to the pictures on the website, the product contains 1500 mg. The only problem is that we have no way of knowing what those 1500 mg are, there are no supplement facts to be found.

The Directions:
Each bottle of Lipozene® contains 60 capsules, however, they recommend that for “optimum results” you should take the “daily maximum dosage of 6 capsules per day.”

The Price:
$29.95 for a bottle that when taken as directed for “optimum results”, will only last 10 days.

DAI’s Bottom Line:
Lipozene® is manufactured by the Obesity Research Institute, LLC and is advertised online as well on the television. The supplement facts have not been provided online, so all you know is that it contains an unknown amount of Glucomannan. When ingested, glucomannan expands and takes on a jelly form to make your stomach feel full. One warning that has been seen elsewhere is that since it expands, glucommannan might prevent medications or other essential nutrients from being absorbed by the body. We find it alarming that the cleverly named Obesity Research Institute has provided almost no information regarding their product. None of the information from their 12 clinical studies has been referenced, and there are no supplement facts to be found on the site. $30.00 for a 10 day supply is a steep price for a product so mired in uncertainty.

Tips to help enhance your weight loss:

1. Eat frequently and eat slowly. A safe and healthy way to lose weight is to eat smaller meals and to eat frequently throughout the day. This keeps your body’s metabolism working. Eating slowly gives our bodies time to tell us that they are full before we’ve eaten more than we need.

2. Eat more raw fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Eating unprocessed foods, fruits, vegetables and whole grains is best for your metabolism and will help aid in weight loss. Processed food contains toxins that are dangerous for our bodies and compromise the productivity of our digestive systems.

3. Increase exercise. With today’s busy schedules, it’s often not easy to increase the amount of exercise we do. However, you can make small incremental changes to your lifestyle to increase the amount of exercise you do such as taking the stairs instead of the escalator and walking instead of driving to local destinations. Try picking up an exercise routine to do at home if you do not have time to go to a gym. If you do exercise, make sure it is on a regular schedule and participate in both aerobic and strength building activities, so your body will begin to burn calories at a higher rate even after you’re done exercising.

4. Take it easy. When you are starting a new diet and exercise program make adjustments slowly and at a rate that your mind and body can work with. Sudden changes to diet and exercise are more likely to put you in a state of shock leading to discouragement and failure.
