The Dumbest Weight Loss Products

By Barbara Bollinger


There are all sorts of weight reduction products available these days. Some of the items really are meant to help you lose weight. There are plenty of other products, in contrast, that appear to be thought up for no other purpose than making a bunch of money off of people who are feeling desperate. There are some products that are so totally outrageous we decided to write about them here so that, hopefully, our readers won't fall for the false promises made by these products.

Have you previously found the fat reduction ring? This is a silver band that coils about your index finger repeatedly. The concept behind this ring is that it places enough pressure on the pressure points that are designed to help you lose weight. Science has proven that your body really does have a few legitimate pressure points. Seabands, to apply one example, are meant to stimulate specific pressure points to help you control motion sickness. The idea that a tiny ring is able to help you lose weight (actively is the key here, as decoration it probably works okay) is just dumb.

Have you noticed the neck line slimmer yet? This is a item that is supposed to enable you to firm up the muscles in your neck so that you won't have any lose or hanging skin. It does this through the use of vibration. Any qualified doctor will tell you that if you have excess skin hanging from your chin or off of your neck, that skin has already been stretched out and, even if your neck muscles become strong, they wont suck that skin back up into them. If you happen to be concerned about your neck, speak with your doctor.



Have you already seen the Belly Burner Weight Loss Belt? This belt, apparently, uses heat to help you literally melt off the pounds as you wear the belt itself. From what we have seen, the belt is manufactured to "heat the core" which, seemingly, will make your weight fall off because of...what? We cant truly tell. Though we could explain that though sweating can certainly burn a few calories, there is no guarantee that they will only be burned from the area covered by the belt. A speedy talk with your doctor should verify that this item isnt meant to do anything more than get your money.

The real truth is that there are all kinds of people who only want to get their hands on your money. They know that you're feeling vulnerable regarding your weight and that you are desperate to lose it and they victimize that vulnerability and desperation. A large amount of people want nothing more than to get rid of weight but don't want to do the work that it takes to get them there. If the task were effortless, far more people would be able to do it. The simple fact is that weight loss is not effortless. There is absolutely no magic pill, clothing item or accessory that does the work for you.
