Side Effects of Weight Loss Pills

Today's generation is a 'fast food' generation. They need everything quick and with no hassles. They don't have time to admire nature around them and perhaps nature, in order to attract their attention has taken the form of fat on the body. An Average American visits fast food joints around thrice in a week and consumes three hamburgers and four fries each week.

So with that much consumption, what happened? They gained fat at the wrong places and in this time where external apperance is more important than anything, they consulted doctor for fast weight loss program. They started taking weight loss pills in order to reduce their weight quickly and in a safe way.This article is for them, to make people aware what danger you are undertaking going the fast way.

The first assumption everyone makes is that dieting is the best way to reduce weight. It really is not. A mere five percent of patients are successful in reducing their weights and obtaining health benefits by dieting. There are many negative effects of dieting which won't be seen after a few days but they would after few years. Relapse can occur after 3-5 years. A patient's body can go into starvation mode and he can fall ill and might gain extra weight after coming out of that mode. So, it is not recommended for anyone to diet without consulting a doctor. Even if it's for 2-3 lbs, please consult a doctor.

What are weight loss pills?

Weight loss pills can also be termed as bypassing pills. They are used to loosen the stools. Two example of weight loss pills are: phenyl pro panolamine and caffeine. Most of the pills available in the market are laxative (to loosen stools) and others are addictive. These pills are for people whose body mass index is 35 or more. No patient should only depend on weight loss pills. They should continue their diet and exercise for a healthy weight loss.

Phen/Fen can have bad effects on a patient's lungs as they increase the chances of Primary Pulmonary Hypertension which sical addiction, heacan be fatal. Other weight loss pills like Caffeine should never be taken, I repeat, never be taken for weight control as they are used to treat other diseases like allergies, hay fever, asthma and bronchial dilation. The above mentioned pills can increase the risk of psychological and physical addiction, high blood pressure, headache, heart attack, anxiety and depression.
