Lots of snake oil salesmen here or those that believe their own bullshit.
this actually works if you want to pay a fortune and risk bad side effects:
"It’s a charge on all fronts by insurance companies to contain the spiraling costs of a new class of weight loss-inducing drugs, the GLP-1s.
Some of these treatments — like Novo Nordisk’s Wegovy — are approved for obesity, while others — like Novo’s Ozempic and Eli Lilly’s Mounjaro — are approved for diabetes, but they all employ similar mechanisms and have exploded in demand for their ability to curb appetite and cut significant amounts of weight."

The effectiveness of weight loss supplements varies widely, and many factors come into play. Some weight loss supplements may have limited evidence supporting their effectiveness, while others may have more robust scientific backing. Here are some key points to consider:
1. **Limited Regulation:** The dietary supplement industry is not as closely regulated as pharmaceuticals, which means that not all weight loss supplements undergo rigorous testing for safety and efficacy before they reach the market. This lack of regulation can make it challenging to determine which products are genuinely effective and safe.
2. **Individual Variability:** Different people may respond differently to the same weight loss supplement due to factors like genetics, lifestyle, and underlying health conditions.
3. **Placebo Effect:** Some individuals may experience weight loss simply because they believe the supplement will work, even if the supplement itself has little or no actual effect on weight.
4. **Healthy Lifestyle is Key:** Even if a weight loss supplement is effective to some degree, it should not be seen as a replacement for a healthy diet and regular exercise. A balanced diet and physical activity are essential for sustainable weight loss.
5. **Side Effects:** Weight loss supplements can have side effects, some of which can be severe. It's crucial to consult a healthcare professional before starting any weight loss supplement to assess potential risks.
6. **Long-Term Sustainability:** Many weight loss supplements are not designed for long-term use, and their effects may diminish over time.
In summary, while some weight loss supplements may offer modest benefits for certain individuals, they are not a magic solution for weight loss. It's important to approach weight loss with a focus on overall health and lifestyle changes. Before considering any weight loss supplement, consult with a healthcare provider to discuss the potential risks and benefits based on your specific circumstances.

No they don't --they are useless. Nutra is just gifting on people's weakness. If any work it's just mind over matter. The placebo effect.

while weight loss supplements may provide some short-term benefits, they are not a guaranteed or sustainable solution for weight management. It's best to focus on making long-term lifestyle changes that promote overall health and well-being. Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement or weight loss program

Hi everyone. Some of my friends have taken similar supplements, like fat burners or HGH, and generally had good results. But it seems to me that to have a long-term stable result, you need to balance your diet better. Eat more fibre and protein, and avoid fats and simple carbohydrates. And to lead an active lifestyle.
