Weight Loss Supplement: What Really Works

By Robert Ghering


Weight loss is a challenge at any age. But, after the age of forty women in particular have the added obstacle of having to overcome the hormonal changes in the body. Hormones have a definite impact on weight loss.

While it is true that most weight loss experts will not recommend most of the products that are sold as weight loss supplement, there are some which do seem to work. There are six products which can be bought at drug stores or health food stores and which have scientific evidence behind them that they help with weight loss:

He did have a number of recommendations and I'm going to share them here, in case there is still a female in this country that has not tuned into Dr. Oz's show on a daily basis. He pointed out that after age 50 the body burns 200 calories a day less because of estrogen loss. As you age and your eggs "shrivel," your body turns to your belly fat as a backup for storage of its estrogen. That being the case, you need to provide your body with an alternative source of estrogen. Dr. Oz recommends you grind up and eat two teaspoons of flax seeds daily to boost your estrogen.

Try introducing new healthy foods to your diet. If you do not get five fruits or vegetables a day, introducing more fruits and vegetables in your diet should be a priority. Go to the grocery store more often and look for fruits and vegetables that look appetizing. If you do not like a vegetable right away, try different ways to cook it. You should also try juicing so you can have a couple of glasses of juice a day to get your five portions of fruits and vegetables.

* Fiber - when trying to lose weight, a supplement that makes the individual feel full can help with weight loss. Fiber is definitely good at this and makes it much easier to not eat as much. One thing to be careful of, though is not to eat too much fiver because it can cause constipation.

Salmon is a good idea also as it is rich in protein and Vitamin D (and let's not forget those healthy Omeg-3 oils). Broccoli is helpful for the iron it provides, building up your red blood cells that in turn carry oxygen to your muscles.Finally, don't underestimate the value of weight training - thirty minutes a week will help burn those calories and continue to do so even after the workout is over!

There's no denying it is going to require a little more of a concentrated effort to be successful in the weight loss department after the age of forty. It's a hard reality, but weight loss CAN be accomplished if you follow these guidelines. Even more importantly, you will be increasing your overall health which means you will feel strong, healthy and vital - and isn't that the ultimate goal in any diet regimen?

* Over-the-Counter Orlistat - this is technically a medicine, but since it doesn't need a prescription, it is considered a supplement. It is sold under the brand name Alli and is proven to work. This supplement blocks 25% of all fat calories which are eaten from being absorbed. Those who take Orlistat and who also follow a sensible eating and exercise plan will lose weight. Orlistat does have some inconvenient side effects including gas and anal leakage.
