Featured on TV infomercials, Provactin is supposed to be the diet pill that will help you if you have problems with high blood pressure, insomnia, or you just can’t stand the jitters of a caffeine based supplement. It is supposed to be the first diet pill that will deliver stimulant free fat loss, even though there are literally hundreds out there like this, both before and after Provactin.

But apparently the difference is they will double your weight loss. Or more specifically, you will achieve 193% the weight loss, their math was a little bit off, but close enough, right? T

In the recent years low carb diets have gained quite a following with their “all you can eat”, meat filled menus. They come in many variations, each focusing on a specific variation of an upside down food pyramid. The latest of these is the low carbohydrate, low fat, and high protein Dukan diet.

Dukan Diet Origins

This eating regime created by the French doctor Pierre Dukan is targeted at obese people desperate to lose weight. In a way the fatter you are the more you will gain from the diet. The

How many times have you heard how important it is to eat fruits  and vegetables?  Now, is it five or nine servings a day?  Why are fruits and veggies always lumped together?  What does a watermelon have in common with spinach?

The author of a 2004 article in the Journal of Postgraduate Medicine answered some of these questions.  Here are a few quotes from from the summary:

The intake of 400-600 g/d of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced incidence of many common forms of cancer, and diets rich in plant foods are also associated with a reduced risk of heart disease and many chronic diseases of ageing.

These foods contain phytochemicals that have anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties which confer many health benefits. Many phytoc

There’s no shortage of fast weight loss plans that claim to teach you how to lose weight quickly – it seems the weight loss industry is full of “self acclaimed gurus” who have a weight loss diet program that’s just perfect for you. Unfortunately, taking chemical stuffed diet pills, eating specific foods and certain times of the day, and even doing “fat burning” exercises aren’t really going to help you lose weight fast, but here are some simple and healthy tips that can teach you how to lose weight naturally, if you’re prepared to put them to use.

Cylaris is reportedly the doctor approved formula that will help you to effectively lower cholesterol levels while also supporting natural and safe weight loss results.  They claim that Cylaris and its pyramid shaped box will help you to get results for only $14 per bottle.  And you can lose up to 32 pounds in just 8 weeks, which realistically speaking is not all that bad.  They claim to cite the clinical studies and apparently the study participants who used Cylaris lost an average of 14.52 pounds.  That is the study result from an 8 week study and a far cry from the 32 pounds they talk about.  Moreover, there is the fact that realistically speaking, that study was conducted on one ingredient, not on the actual Cylaris formula.  There is a huge difference to say the least.

They use a 522mg proprietary blend to cover a number of ingredients, not even actually giving each ingredient an average of 100mg.  The only ingredient that really doesn’t require at least that is chromium, which provides questionable results anyway.  But this in mind, most of their effective ingredients are based on caffeine.  Caffeine anhydrous is obviously caffeine, and green tea is based on caffeine.  Both require at least 400mg a piece. With a 522mg proprietary blend, you are not going to get that.

Then there’s the fact that they use cissus quadrangularis.  This proven ingredient can ideally speaking provide weight loss benefits.  But frankly speaking, it requires around 1000-1500mg.  So all in all, this product definitely doesn’t even have half that in their entire proprietary blend. So how could you possibly expect it to have that impossible amount in that particular ingredient.  It is physically impossible to be quite honest.

Their other ingredient is soy.  So we’re surprised that they did not claim it specifically for women, as that is one of those valid ingredients.  However, soy in particular does not actually promote weight loss in women, just hormonal benefits in general. So obviously speaking,

Eat black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day for good luck in the coming year, at least if you live in the southern U.S. where I grew up.  In the Deep South, add pork and collard greens.

In some parts of Italy they eat lentils instead, for financial prosperity.  Lentils look  a bit like coins. 

In Greece, January 1 is St. Basil’s day.  He was the forefather of the Greek Orthodox church.  At midnight on New Year’s eve, the head of the household cuts vassilopitta (St. Basil’s cak
