How Metabolism Affects Weight Loss

by Administrator 27. October 2009 09:21

One of the main selling points of the weight-loss suplement Hydroxycut was that it supposedly sped up the body's metabolism, making weight loss easier.  The common misconception is that a slow metabolism makes it easier to gain weight and a fast metabolism makes it easier to lose weight.  However, this is a gross oversimplification of the truth, which is that there are many factors which figure in to determining a person's weight.  In fact, as the body gains weight, metabolism changes to maintain that weight.

One of the easiest ways to actually affect how the body maintains, gains, or loses weight is to change the amount of energy your body expends through activity.  If you exercise more each day, you will begin to see actual weight loss.

  • Keep the person calm and safe.  Have him or her lie down, and keep him or her away from any blunt objects which could cause injury.
  • While the common myth is that seizure victims will swallow their tongue and that putting something in their mouth will prevent this, this is actually not true.  They are far more likely to swallow something you put in their mouth than they are to swallow their tongue.

The Neurogical Dangers of Hydroxycut

by Administrator 19. October 2009 11:01

Besides the liver and heart damage linked to the use of Hydroxycut, there are other serious health problems which users of the supplement have reported.  Neurogical effects are those which are linked to problems in the nervous system.  Because there are so many different herbs and other ingredients in Hydroxycut, researchers are not sure which are actually at the root of these problems.  While some may be a result of the caffeine content of the drug, or the result of the herbs themselves, others might be caused by other issues resulting from use of the product.

Some of the most common neurogical side effects include insomnia, restlessness, feelings of anxiety, trembling in the hands and other extremities, and seizures.  If you experience any of these and have taken Hydroxycut in the past, you should consult a doctor immediately.
