New Slimsticks cuts out yo-yo dieting

A new weight loss aid that reduces daily calorie intake by up to 30% has been launched today. Slimsticks contains natural palm and oat oils that are proven to control the body’s appetite control mechanism for up to eight hours, helping dieters:

– eat less

– feel fuller for longer

– manage calorie intake

– reduce weight regain and maintain weight

– improve body composition and reduce body fat

– helps reduce inches around that waist

Containing the active ingredient Fabuless, Slimsticks has been demonstrated to reduce food intake by up to 30%, by being digested slowly into the body, so increasing the time it takes to become hungry after a meal. It also reduces the amount of food eaten at the next meal.

Slimsticks has no side effects. And, coupled with sensible eating and regular exercise Slimsticks can help people lose more weight than will power alone.

Slimsticks is easy to use – simply add a sachet to a little water, milk, tea or coffee before a meal. Two Slimsticks for the first month - one at breakfast and one at lunch, then just one to two Slimsticks a day should be sufficient. Those with larger appetites or higher body weight may find it more effective to take two at breakfast and one at lunch for the first month.

Dr Jason Halford, reader in appetite and obesity at the University of Liverpool, said: “The only effective way to lose weight and to keep it off is to change your lifestyle by changing dietary habits and increase daily activity.  Even so, many people find weight loss difficult and weight regain a problem. Here there is a role for products with proven health benefits that help control appetite without diminishing the enjoyment of eating.”

Announcing the launch of Slimsticks, Franco Beer from Inovate Health, added: “Slimsticks is an effective, healthy and natural way to control eating so helping you lose weight and stay slimmer – so no more yo-yo dieting.

“Independent clinical studies show conclusively that people using Fabuless, the active ingredient found in Slimsticks, not only eat less, but also feel fuller for longer, as well as cutting out snacking in between meals. Interestingly, people using Slimsticks eat less, but don’t notice the difference.

“As Slimsticks has no side effects, it is an ideal way to get slim and stay slim, while still enjoying the food you love to eat. Slimsticks has real potential for individuals who are trying to avoid weight gain by controlling appetite and preventing overeating.”

Lucy Jones, a registered dietitian, concluded: “Obesity is a major epidemic. The scale of the issue is affecting the nation’s health, as well as our economy. With so many contributing factors, we need a multi-pronged attack in terms of treatment. Any supplement, drug or surgery should be used by individuals as a tool, alongside life-long changes to eating, exercise and attitudes. We need to embrace evidence-based new approaches or products which help people maintain a healthy weight, while being mindful that there is not a one-size fits all and more long-term evidence is needed to find the best weight loss methods.”

As with any form of dieting, people should firstly seek medical advice before embarking on a weight loss plan and Slimsticks should be used in conjunction with long-term changes to diet and exercise levels.

Already a hit in the US, the Slimsticks Diet also comes with a menu plan that encourages portion control and healthy eating. At approximately £1 per sachet (RSP £29.99 per pack), Slimsticks will not break the bank.

Slimsticks will soon be available online from www.slimsticks.com and from over 1,000 Lloyds Pharmacies from 2 November, 2010.
