FDA List of Tainted Weight Loss Products

Questions and Answers about FDA’s Initiative Against Contaminated Weight Loss Products

This is a link to the FDA's website. It contains a list of 72 tainted over the counter weight loss products. There is information on what each contains and the risks and side effects of each of the ingredients.

One thing I noticed. There is a product called Slim Fast,,,, not to be confused with Slim-Fast,,, with the hypen. They are trying to tag along with the well known and respected meal replacement product.

Hope this helps someone who is considering taking one of these. There is no "quick fix", diet changes, exercise, common sense, and allowing yourself to "splurge" say once a month on a treat, are the main ways to loose the weight and keep it off. A quick fix may get you into that pair of jeans or dress for the weekend, but a lifestyle change will keep you in them until they wear out.
