Is there something fishy about your diet pills?

• Are there any good diet pills? - Yes.
• Are there any pills that don't work? - Absolutely yes.
• Can weight loss pills be dangerous? - Quite a few, yes.

Diet pills can be over the counter pills or prescription pills and more often than not they fall in the last two categories. Either they don't work or they are useless and dangerous. The advertisements and mass emails of pills that flood your spam folder are the ones that you should be careful about. What your instincts tell you about these pills is right and there is definitely something fishy about them. You will never find a genuine diet pill in your spam box.

Watch out for shady pills

Spam emails are illegal and punishable in most countries; the fact that the companies have to market their products by such means speaks volumes about the effectiveness of their product and their business ethics. Sometimes, fake pills trading on the name of prescription pills are also sold on the market. If you come across spam emails of popular prescription pills like Xenical orlistat, you must stay away from that particular website. Websites that offer Xenical orlistat on discount or generic orlistat pills might be selling fake pills under the name of Xenical.

Make sure you find a reputed website before you buy any pills. Avoid scams like the plague. The pills that are marketed thus can not only affect your pocket but also cause serious problems such as heart failure, renal failure, stroke, convulsions, addiction, anxiety and depression. If you suspect even a little that your diet pills are not safe, talk to a doctor, do some research online and only then proceed to buy them.
