Struggling to lose weight? Admit it, it's not your thyroid.

The Indian “miracle” cactus Caralluma Fimbriata targets the

real cause of fat gain.

70% of Americans are overweight and let's face it. It's not

because we're born with sluggish metabolism. It's because

we're eating more, more often and eating the wrong foods.

We need to face that to realize why some diet pills don't

work, and why others might wreak havoc with our hormonal

balance.

We're treating the wrong cause

Most diet pills contain controversial drugs in large doses.

They work by zapping up our metabolic rates to create a

temporary 'high'. This process induces 'thermogenesis' or

heat production, which in turn burns calories.

The metabolic boost is achieved by exciting the CNS

(Central Nervous System). The resulting response is similar

to the " fight or flight " effect- elevated heart rate,

increased excitability, and immune suppression.

The body cannot sustain this 'high' for long, as the

increase in stress hormones leads to irregular heartbeat,

emotional imbalance, and extreme fatigue.

A healthy, functioning thyroid will try to set things right

by slowing down the metabolic rate. That's when your

fat-loss hits a plateau.

When you get off the pill (before or after hitting your

goal weight), the low metabolic rate makes it even harder

to maintain or lose weight.

Does that mean the " magic pill " does not exist?

Luckily, there are diet pills that can help you lose weight

safely and permanently. They work by suppressing the

appetite- and that's where most dieters need help! If you

badly want to lose weight, but are repeatedly let down by

your cravings, then these are the pills you should look

into.

The key ingredient in several new diet pills on the market

is Caralluma Fimbriata, a cactus that has been used for

centuries in India and Africa to suppress appetite and

cravings.

Plants such as Caralluma Fimbriata have a distinct

advantage over lab-synthesized compounds. They mimic the

action of our natural hormones and receptors, without

blocking them or altering body chemistry in any way.

Prescription drugs that suppress appetite can be harmful

because they are designed to block hormones that trigger

hunger. This not only creates unpleasant long-term side

effects such as heart and lung problems; it can also mask

real hunger.

Unlike cravings, real hunger comes on slowly and is

accompanied by physical symptoms such as weakness or

dizziness. It is important to know the difference in order

to ensure healthy weight loss.

Caralluma Fimbriata has long been used as a famine food for

its appetite suppressing action. It takes the edge off your

cravings and fills you up much faster without any of the

unhealthy and potentially deadly side effects of

prescription diet pills.

In clinical trials conducted by Gencor (Gencor Pacific,

Inc., Austin, TX), the pills produced significant weight

loss in most participants. In parts of India where the

plant is widely consumed, people also report improved

stamina and mental focus. The plant is widely recommended

for diabetics.

If you seem to be fighting a losing battle against

cravings, if you badly want to lose weight but are

constantly betrayed by temptation … this humble cactus can

tip the scales in your favor.
