Does Weight Loss Medication Work?

Does Weight Loss Medication Work? Long Term Weight Loss Requires Planning and Strategies

We live in a world obsessed with quick fixes and there is nothing that symbolizes this more than our desire to pop pills as solutions. Pharmaceutical companies market pills for profit, telling us they will cure us of any ailment that we suffer from (even the ones we didn’t know we had!).

Is Medication the Best Option

This is why weight loss pills have become such an en vogue trend. In a world with increasing rates of obesity and decreasing desire for self-responsibility, weight loss pills seem like the perfect way to help us lose weight. The problem is, as with all quick fixes, some weight loss pills may not work as promised. Let’s discuss why this is the case in greater depth to help you stay away from pills as a solution to problems.

Is Mediation Always Safe

In this pharmaceutical and mainstream medicine dominated age, even mainstream doctors are in consensus about the fact that weight loss pills are not proven effective. If anything some have been proven to be health hazards. For example, there are some weight loss pills that have been banned in many countries due to the fact that they cause a range of health problems from dizziness to kidney stones. There have even been instances of fatalities associated with them, (although it is important to remember that this is true of many types of drugs—doctors rarely claim that any drug is 100% fool-proof).

False Promises of Outcome

Another major problem with diet pills is their spurious promises. Diet pills will claim they will decrease your appetite, break down your body fat faster and build up muscles. But can all of these promises really be fulfilled? The only way to lose weight and maintain a healthy weight in a safe and consistent manner is through a regular dose of healthy food and exercise. There is no quick way around this fact. It is just the truth and the best option. Diet pills lead you to believe that you can eat what you want and do as little as you want. If you just take the pill you will have the body of Fabio or Cindy Crawford.  The truth is, you won’t.

The magical promises of diet pills are dangerous because they perpetuate not only the idea that everything in life can be fixed quickly, but also the idea that people do not have control over themselves and thus must take pills to get better. Nothing could be further from the truth. The only way to lose weight effectively is to build habits that facilitate a healthy lifestyle: diet, exercise, and a positive attitude fueled by positive emotions.
