The pills for losing weight were marketed in India by a Pharmaceutical Company , which was acting on the principle of suppressing a person’s appetite or by increasing the satiety ( the sense of satisfying the hunger ) of the individual by stimulating the satiety centre in the brain. But as it was found to have certain undesirable effects it has been taken off from the market , and as of now there are no genuine drugs available in Indian Market to treat Over weight. There are few drugs available in International market , but they are yet to be manufactured in India. Food supplements are not new to the market. They have been there from years together . The “herbal based” food supplement that is becoming popular of late in India is being popularized more because of the multi level marketing technique ( like so many money circulation schemes that have been hitting the Indian market and failing people ) than the effect of the so called ” powders”. It is always healthier and desirable to lose weight while eating your three meals in a qualitative and quantitative manner than resorting to usage of ” food supplements ” or ” Herbal powders ” . You cannot sustain on these food supplements for the rest of your life and it is expensive. You should not take any food supplements on this treatment. The only thing you may be asked to take is a multivitamin tablet which you can buy from near by drug store. On this treatment you will be required to eat your three meals in a qualitative and quantitative manner, you will be advised to avoid high calorie foods such as sweets and fried foods.
Exercise is very much required for a human body as much as food and water.

Exercise is always used for increasing your metabolism, increasing your skin texture, improving your muscle tone, increasing vitamin up take for avoiding depression. These are the reasons why one should exercise. Weight loss can be seldom achieved by vigorous exercise. We find lot of people whom you see going for a morning walk regularly and religiously every day. Surprisingly they are seen the same to day or after six months or even after a year also. That shows that being careful about one’s intake and going for walks regularly helps in 90 to 95 % of people to help in stabilizing on the same weight and same shape. On this treatment your exercise will have a salutary effect on your weight reduction by increasing the conversion of the fat back in to Glucose and helps you to improve your appearance and improves your figure too.
The question is what kind of programs you have joined and what have you lost? Your over weight being a medical problem that concerns your body it is very much advisable that it requires medical treatment under the guidance of a ” Bariatric Physician ” ( A doctor who specializes in Over weight and Under weight treatment is called as a Bariatric physician just like a doctor who specializes in heart problem is known as a Cardiologist.) If a person is gaining weight to day that indicates that he is gaining fat and what he should lose fat only and not the precious lean body mass or the Water .What a person loses on strict dieting or starvation such as living on lime water or butter milk for days together is more of Carbohydrates and water and less of fat. In the process the Individuals metabolic rate drops down and at certain point of time the weight reduction stops. Out of frustration when he/she starts consuming normal or near normal food it turns out to be more than the body’s requirement because of the reduced metabolic rate . This results in gaining back all the weight that has been lost or may be little more in the form of Bonus weight .
The same phenomenon is observed in the Non – Medical treatments and the Beauty Parlour treatments that are advertised where in if at all any weight is lost it is the precious lean body mass such as muscles and this can prove to dangerous in the long run such as osteoporosis ( Thinning of the bones ) or damage to the Myocardium ( Heart Muscle ).

As it is only the fat that is lost , there is no possibility of any side effects , that’s the reason why we treat complicated cases such as diabetics , high blood pressure , Myocardial Infarction ( Heart attack ) and even By pass surgery cases also.
