The Warning Signs of a Heart Attack

by Administrator 1. December 2009 15:54

One of the reasons Hydroxycut was pulled from the market is that the dietary supplement was linked to heart disease.  Heart disease is the single largest killer in America, accounting for over 800,000 deaths a year.  There are also over 1,260,000 heart attacks a year in the United States.  Recognizing the signs may be the biggest key to saving your life:

  • Chest pain is the most common symptom of a heart attack.  It can manifest itself as a tingling, tight, or a squeezing sensation.  Sometimes this feels similar to heartburn.
  • Numbness or tingling in the left arm is another common sign.
  • General feelings of nausea, weakness, vomiting, and light-headedness are also common.

The Importance of Exercise

by Administrator 20. November 2009 17:21

Iovate Health Sciences and other producers of dietary supplements sold millions of products on the promise that they would make losing weight quicker and easier.  But the truth is that there is no magic bullet for weight loss.  To safely lose weight, a healthy diet has to be paired with a responsible exercise plan.  Prolonged cardiovascular exercise can help burn calories.  Activities like running, jogging, biking, swimming, and rowing are good ways to lose fat.  Remember not to push yourself, as athletic injuries can discourage exercise.

Prison Guard Smuggles in Hydroxycut

by Administrator 19. November 2009 16:39

A prison guard at a facility in Pennsylvania has been charged with smuggling contraband items into the prison, including Hydroxycut diet pills.  The man has been charged with bribery, criminal conspiracy, and two counts of furnishing contraband.

According to reports, the guard was working with a prison inmate to smuggle in the contraband, which at first included money, Hydroxycut pills, and other minor goods, but eventually extended to include drugs.

Hydroxycut and Seizures

by Administrator 11. November 2009 15:31

Because of the nature of dietary supplements like Hydroxycut, it's not always clear which of their many ingredients can pose potential problems.  But what has been made clear is that some people who have taken Hydroxycut have suffered serious seizures as a result.  The current evidence suggests that consumers who have experienced seizures relating to Hydroxycut have all been long-term users.  However, even consumers who only took Hydroxycut for a brief period of time may be at risk.

There is no clear understanding of what in Hydroxycut has caused the seizures, but doctors warn that the supplement as a whole is unsafe.

Types of Heart Disease

by Administrator 10. November 2009 15:29

Heart disease is one of the biggest problems facing America.  Diet and other lifestyle factors greatly increase one's chance for developing the disease.  For example, some dietary supplements, such as Hydroxycut, have been linked to developing long-term heart problems.  If you've developed heart problems as a result of taking Hydroxycut, the lawyers at Williams Kherkher would like to help.

The term "heart disease" is actually something of a misnomer, as it really describes several different diseases which affect the heart.  Some of the most common are:

  • Coronary heart disease, the most common type of heart disease.  Plaque builds up in the walls of the blood vessels, raising the danger of a stroke or heart attack.
  • Cardiomyopathy.  In this form of heart disease, the tissue of the heart degenerates over time.
  • Cardiovascular disease.  In this form, the body's blood vessels deteriorate, specifically those around the heart.
If you or someone you love has experienced heart problems as a result of Hydroxycut use, contact the Hydroxycut lawyers of Williams Kherkher by calling 800-761-3187 today.

Gymnema Sylvestre

by Administrator 3. November 2009 10:01

One of the most well-known components of the weight-loss supplement Hydroxycut is extract of gymnema sylvestre, a plant native to India and other parts of southern Asia which has been used for millenia as a natural medicine to help encourage weight loss and treat diabetes.  However, there is little actual medical evidence to back these claims up.  While it may seem harmless, Hydroxycut has been linked to at least one death and several other health problems.  It is unclear yet what ingredient in particular in Hydroxycut is causing the health problems.

Caffeine and Supplements

by Administrator 2. November 2009 12:07

Dietary supplements often contain large amounts of caffeine as a way to boost energy levels.  While people who take these supplements often think this newfound energy is due to the healthy ingredients in the product, the results are actually more akin to drinking a lot of coffee.  While caffeine can indeed raise energy levels and increase concentration in small-to-moderate amounts, large amounts can actually be dangerous.  Because of the caffeine content in Hydroxycut, some users have complained of the following health problems:

  • High blood pressure
  • Rapid or fluctuating heart beat
  • Irritability and mood changes
  • Insomnia and other sleep problems

If you experience any of these symptoms, you should consult a doctor.

If you or someone you love has experienced health problems as a result of taking Hydroxycut, contact the Hydroxycut attorneys of Williams Kherkher today by calling 800-761-3187.
