Metabolife® Diet Pills ReviewOverviewMetabolife are one of the most successful sellers of diet and weight loss pills and, despite controversy attaching to their products like Metabolife 356®, they command respect in the diet industry. Metabolife® Diet Pills - IssuesThe main issue surrounding the use of Metabolife's diet pills and supplements concerns the ingredient Ephedra (Ephedrine or Ma Huang), a common herb widely used by many companies in the manufacture of weight loss and bodybuilding supplements and taken by dieters throughout the world. A 2001 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine concluded the herb could cause high blood pressure, heart problems, stroke, seizures and death.

In particular, ingredient-testing and labelling regulations are less strict. This means the weight loss customer depends largely upon information supplied by the diet pill producer. The Metabolife web site does not appear to offer very much information on either the ingredients of or risks associated with it's weight loss products. More information would definitely be helpful, especially with regard to Ephedra, Ephedrine or Ma Huang. Metabolife® Diet Pills - Do They Work?Metabolife weight loss supplements are intended to be consumed as part of a sensible eating program. The meal suggestions provided by Metabolife are designed to offer about 1200 calories (plus snacks), which for most people is sufficient to offer steady weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week, depending on exercise.
