For some people, trying to lose just a few pounds can be as big an effort as losing a lot of weight. If you are looking to lose a little bit of weight before swimsuit season or the big reunion, or just to get back into your favorite pair of pants, weight loss herbal diet pills can help. These pills enhance your body’s own techniques to help melt off the excess weight quickly and easily.
One of the best available is Dietrine Carb Blocker. Carb blockers are composed of bean and wheat germ extracts that prevent the carbohydrates you eat from being absorbed by the body.

Another good one is Hoodia Gordonii, a cactu which has grown for thousands of years in the Kalahari Desert region. Hoodia has been used by the indigenous Bushmen as a natural appetite suppressant. One of the first studies of Hoodia Gordonii was done in the UK on obese patients. Half of the volunteers were given Hoodia Gordonii, the other half were given a placebo. The subjects were allowed to read, watch television and eat. After 15 days it was found that those taking Hoodia had reduced their calorie intake by 1000 calories a day. Despite having unlimited access to food, the Hoodia subjects lost weight.

American food habits are seldom regarded as healthy. In fact, the alarming increase in obesity in the US population (by far on of the highest in the world) is connected with the elevated fat content of many of the typical foods consumed in America, especially at breakfast. Many Americans recognize this fact and are slowly switching to healthier ways to start their day, but many more refuse to change these long-established food habits.
But health companies are looking into more efficient ways to reduce fat intake than convincing people not to eat so many fried eggs or sausages.
Among the most recent developments of the weight loss industry is a type of substances called fat binders. These have the ability to ‘capture’ fat molecules in the stomach and intestine, preventing from being absorbed by the body. One of the most popular is Chitosan, which is obtained from certain shrimp. Chitosan is widely sold, but its effectiveness has not being scientifically assessed. Some labs are now focusing their efforts on a more promising product. It has been found that extracts of the desert plant Opuntia ficus is effective in binding ingested fat and also has appetite suppressant properties. The fibre complex from Opuntia ficus is being commercialized under the name of Proactol.
The difference between this and other fat binders is that Proactol has been subject to many rigorous clinical trials that support the claims made by the company. The manufacturer claims that Proactol is the only product in its kind whose effectiveness has been scientifically proven and medically backed.
And talking about breakfast, one of the studies conducted by the InQpharm laboratory aimed to test the ability of Proactol to deal with a real, fat-rich American breakfast. In their own words, “associated with an American breakfast intake, the patented fibre complex of Opuntia ficus indica absorbs about 23% of total fatty acids compared to a control “
Detailed information about the Opuntia extract can be found in the Weightloss Research website. For inquiries about Proactol consult their website.

Creatine

The supplement elevates the level of creatine phosphate in your blood, which boost levels of ATP ( the energy source muscle use to contract) in the muscle.

Gakic
Gakic is composed of three common amino acids; ingested together, they have synergistic effects on your strength. When taken with arginine, glycine can boost growth hormone levels and creatine synthesis in the body. It also enhances the firing of nerves that stimulate muscle contraction, which in turn improves strength. Arginine increase level of growth hormone and nitric oxide (NO), the gas that helps deliver more blood to exercising muscles. Alpha – ketoiso caproic acid is a form of the amino acid leucine that is readily converted to hydroxyl beta methylbutyrate, a substance that can build muscle mass and prevent muscle breakdown. KIC helps remove ammonia from the body during exercise , which decrease muscle fatigue. Gakic has been proven to increase muscle force and inhibit fatigue, meaning it may increase your strength by allowing you to lift more weight and complete more reps with a given weight
Green tomato extract
This supplement increase the number of blood vessels and thus oxygen, nutrients and anabolic hormones – that supply muscle. In terms of training, this means greater strength gains and muscle growth.
