In pursuit of a beautiful figure without a gram of excess fat, many women often resort to using various medications or supplements that help reduce weight. Sometimes these tools help, sometimes not, but there are those that can cause significant harm to your body. Today in our article we will consider the drug "Lida" for weight loss: reviews, characteristics, indications and contraindications for its use. This Chinese product has been supplied to Russia for about 10 years and is sold as a “panacea”, which helps to lose 10-15 extra pounds once and for all. Sounds tempting, doesn't it? But let's see how this effect is achieved.
Dietary supplement for weight loss "Lida": reviews, composition and characteristics
The action of this drug is aimed at suppressing excessive appetite, and tablets also have a pronounced tonic effect. That is, during the course, which is designed for 1 month, you do not want to eat at all, you are not drawn to lunch or dinner with fatty, high-calorie foods, you drink a lot of water - one of the side effects of capsules is thirst, and thus your weight for a given period decreases by 3-10 kg (indicators vary and strongly depend on the initial human body weight). According to the manufacturers, the drug consists only of natural ingredients, including fiber of yam, rich in fiber, as well as extracts of herbs - guarana, garcinia, coleus, golden mandarin and some others.
But, attention, “Lida” diet pills, reviews of which, on the one hand, are positive (the consumers who take them really note sometimes a complete lack of appetite) are not suitable for everyone. They contain the chemical ingredient sibutramine. Numerous studies of the drug confirmed its presence in the composition. What is this component? At its core, it has a narcotic effect similar, for example, to ecstasy and methamphetamines. The use of sibutramine causes excessive production of serotonin and norepinephrine, thereby achieving the effect of reducing or completely suppressing appetite. More recently, doctors used drugs that included this substance to treat people with high obesity, but in 2010 the British Board of Medicines and Health stated that all medicines containing sibutramine are dangerous to health. They categorically can not be used by those who have the slightest problems with the cardiovascular system, and in other cases, admission should be under the constant supervision of a doctor.
But the drug "Lida" for weight loss, which doctors say is that its uncontrolled use can significantly harm health and even lead to death, is freely available through the Internet and distributed by dealers. That is, despite the fact that the capsules really help in most cases, and those taking the supplement notice a significant weight loss - from 3 to 10 and even 15 kilograms, you have a risk of irreparable harm to the body. Although it is recommended that you consult a doctor before starting any diet or before taking any remedy, few follow this advice. But many who are obese have other problems with the body. Without an examination and a regular cardiogram, you can’t say with certainty if you have heart problems or not.
