Holland and Barrett are stocking some new diet products with the expected seasonal upturn in sales just around the corner.

Although diet pills and slimming tablets are by far the most popular and best selling products on the weight loss market there is always room for something different.

Not so long ago the concept of diet drops were introduced and fuelled by one of two celebrities who let slip that the reason for their weight loss success was the use of diet drops.

Diet drops are administered by squeezing one or drops of the formula onto the tongue at certain times of the day (usually before a meal) with the desired effect being a suppression of appetite and after effect that can help to mobilise body fat.

This brings us to the  Emotional Eating Kit from Bach

The Emotional Eating Kit comprises of three naturally formulated flower essences produced to aid your diet and healthy living regimes.

The flower essences are:

• Chestnut Bud (Aesculus hippocastanum) ideal if you are prone to making the same dieting mistakes time and time again, Chestnut Bud is thought to help you gain knowledge from your experience.
• Crab Apple (Malus pumila) When you feel unclean or dislike something about yourself, Crab Apple is thought to help you accept yourself and any imperfections you think you may have.
• Cherry Plum (Prunus cerasifera) For when disaster strikes and you may be losing control of your diet, Cherry Plum could help you to think and act rationally.

What is Theory Behind Emotional Eating

Emotional Eating is when food is used as an emotion a crutch, a way of transferring feelings away the current situation, usually negative emotions. Or put more simply – when bad things happen some of turn to food as a comfort.

 How To Use

Usage various from person to person depending on when emotions are experienced, you may may want to take one, two or all three of the flower essences contained in one dosage. Your feelings may vary on a daily basis so you can change your choices whenever you want.

Drop two drops of each chosen essence directly on the tongue, four times a day. or, add two drops of each chosen essence to a drink of water and sip at intervals.

For convenience when using more than one essence, add two drops of each to an empty 30ml dropper bottle. Top up with mineral water, adding a teaspoonful of brandy or cider vinegar if you wish. From this bottle take four drops at least four times a day.

Potential Side Effects

Perfectly natural and so unlikely to cause any concern or side effects

Does The Emotional Kit Work

It is extremely hard to give a definitive yes or  no answer to products as the Emotion Eating Kit as emotion and psychology play a big part and there is not scientific or clinical trial performed. If you use the product and because of what you have read it does stop you from comfort eating then it has worked to some degree.

Where To Buy 

In store at Holland and Barrett, the price is between £10 and £15

Alternative Products

More about Liquid Diet Drops

______________________________________________________

Every so often a new diet concept is introduced – it is usually filtered through to the UK via the United States. The current new diet concept that seems to have everyone talking is LDD or Liquid Diet Drops.

Liquid Diet Drops are basically an evolved and more naturally formulated version of HCG Drops – Human chorionic gonadotropin. HCG is a hormone produced naturally in a women at the time of pregnancy and has extremely beneficial weight loss properties.

LDD Not HCG

HCG by means means of orally taken drops are now banned under FDA regulation and can only be administered by injection under GP authorisation.

Liquid Diet Drops however are  hormone free, completely legal and available to buy without prescription.

What Are Liquid Diet Drops

LDD is classed as dietary food supplement and taken by way of a few drops on the tongue at certain times of the day. The drops alone are incredibly effective but it is suggested that to gain maximum benefit the LDD Plan (which is included with very purchase) is followed in conjunction.

How Do Liquid Diet Drops Work

LDD is complex formula of amino acids that act quickly to suppress appetite. The drops (complex formula) send a signal to the part of brain (hypothalamus) responsible for controlling appetite to reach satiety quicker reducing daily calorie consumption.

The hypothalamus also sends signals to the body to start breaking down body fat to convert to energy or fuel for the body.

The combined LDD diet plan (VLCD – very low calorie diet) usually consists of food that is high in lean proteins, low in carbohydrates and low in saturated fats.

Following the plan daily calorie intake is restricted to 500-700 per day.

Liquid Diet Drops Side Effects

Nothing has been documented or reported – this is very human safe diet product.

Liquid Diet Drops Testimonials and Side Effects

LDD has been responsible for many diet successes across the globe – the manufactures have received countless testimonials and positive comments.

Some users have reported a weight loss of 1-2 lbs per day.

Where to Buy Liquid Diet Drops

LDD and the accompanying diet plan is sold in the UK exclusively through authorised stockist Evo Slimming.

A month supply costs £49.99 which could be considered quite expensive – you would probably need to purchase 3 bottles to follow the plan, so £150 there or there abouts. It is up to you to way up the cost of LDD against what you have paid in the past for other diet products and what you may spend in the future if you do not take up this opportunity.

In our opinion LDD is highly recommended and a no brainer.

Aspire is refreshing soft drink that is said to help burn excess calories – the manufacturers suggest that each can help to burn on average over 200 calories (Kcals).

Available in just the one flavour to date, Cranberry, Aspire is familiar site in UK high street chemists, healths stores ans supermarkets.

When Aspire was first introduced it created a high level of interest and media publications such as the Daily Mail published an article titled “Diet Drink That Can Help Burn 200 Calories Per Day”

• Can help to burn calories 
• Contains 5 calories (Kcals) per 100ml
• Formula consists of carefully selected natural ingredients
• One can provides a good source of vitamins
• Cranberry flavoured and lightly carbonated

Does Aspire Diet Drink Work

A study group at Leeds Metropolitan University reported that a combination of Green Tea, Caffeine, amino acid and ginger could cause a thermogenic reaction if introduced simultaneously.

A thermogenic reaction (the process used by a majority of fat burners) causes the body to produce more heat to digest food and increases the metabolism expending more calories in the process.

This study although conducted with complete legitimacy was tested on only 20 subjects – 11 men and nine women. It is argued that a study group so small can sometimes produce untypical results.

Conclusion – Is Aspire Recommended

Apsire is certainly worth considering – at worse you have a great tasting soft drink.

If you are investing time and money onto a diet product and diet regime then obviously Aspire should not be relied upon solely. It is recommended to use Aspire to complement something else.

Where To Buy Aspire Diet Drink

Several high street stockists sell Aspire ranging from £1.59 to around £2.00 per can. Holland and Barrett and Waitrose perhaps the most likely to stock.

Alternative Diet Products

Fat burning can be incredibly effective, recently there have been an influx of products with varying degrees of legitimacy and success.

We have put together a list of the top fat burning commercial products available to buy without prescription.

Xedra-Cut is a slimming drink that is based on the popular Xedra-Cut XT capsule formula – the manufacturers claim that one sachet is almost the equivalent of three Xedra-Cut XT capsules.

Each box contains 20 sachets that can be easily made into a reasonably nice tasting drink – although taste is not the primary function of a slimming drink some competitive products are horrific in the taste department.

Taste apart how does Xedra-Cut help with Weight Loss

The official website claims it is The UK’s best-selling and most trusted theromogenic fat-burner.

According to the marketing material it can offer the following benefits:

• Contains scientifically proven fat loss ingredients

Does Xedra-Cut Work

Despite the manufacturers claiming Xedra-Cut to be “UK’s best-selling and most trusted theromogenic fat-burner” it is largely an unknown quantity.

There does not appear to be much in way of consumer feedback or success stories yet. We may have to revisit on a later date.

Is Xedra-Cut Recommended

Not easy to recommend considering the lack of information currently.

Where To Buy Xedra Cut Slim Packs

Can be purchased from the Holland and Barrett online store for around £29.00 – Buy Xedra-Cut Slim Packs

Tava Tea is being heavily featured in the media again – and not without good reason.

Tava Tea is a slimming tea (or wellness blend) as the official site would have it that combines Sencha, Oolong and Puerh tea’s.

It has been well documented throughout history the benefits of introducing green tea into your health regime. Green tea is powerful fat burner and also a highly effective antioxidant that can reduce the risk of several human conditions such as heart disease, ageing and other degenerative diseases.

“If there is one natural substance that is to be considered essential, its green tea”

Green tea has been used for centuries in Japan and China as a mechanism for ultimate health.

Green tea has a life prolonging association that it is particularly hard to argue with considering the statistics that place thee two aforementioned countries as being head and shoulders above all others with regard to life expectancy and low obesity levels per population.

If there is one natural substance that is to be considered essential, its green tea.

Tava Tea For Weight Loss

Possibly the biggest and most well known of all the benefits that green tea can provide is weight loss.

Tava Tea is far removed from the typical “green tea” products you are likely to find in the high street  stores (Tesco, Sainsburys and Asda). Most green tea products found on supermarket shelves have been processed to death and are very much classed as green tea only in name.

Tava Tea comprises of three of the most effective and pure green teas in existence.

Wuyi Cliff Oolong can lower carbohydrate absorption and significantly decrease daily calorific intake.

Asian statistics indicate that obese patients who drank just 2 cups of Wuyi Cliff Oolong a day had over 150% greater fat burning results than those drinking the same amount of standard supermarket type green tea.

Wuyi Cliff Oolong can reduce the insulin levels after you have just eaten. Insulin, the hormone responsible for storing excess body fat, increases considerably when you take on too much carb rich foods (rice, pasta, bread, potatoes etc) and can be a main contributor to retaining excess body fat.

Sencha tea provides a potent antioxidant and chemical substances known as polyphenols, these are responsible for neutralising molecules that are proven to be a catalyst of many human conditions such as cancer, heart disease and the deterioration of your body through ageing.

Puerh tea is also rich in polyphenols which help protect the body against many debilitating diseases and are thought to help lower blood cholesterol and improve digestion.

Tava Tea Key Points

• Burns 2.5 x MORE Calories Than Green Tea.
• Reduces The Fattening Effects Of The Carbs You Eat.
• Calms Your Mind & Body.
• Great source of antioxidants. Fights the signs of aging.
• Is completely natural. Grown organically. Nothing artificial. Just as nature intended.
• Works in harmony with your body. Free from side effects.

Lifes2Good produce a range of diet products most using the prefix “Slender”

Slender Sleep Diet Drink What Is It

A diet drink that is cranberry flavoured and best taken just before bedtime and on an empty stomach

Slender Sleep How To Us

The official website explains that to gain maximum benefit it is advised to drink on an empty stomach.

“Energy is required to breakdown the ingredients of the diet drink and as your stomach is empty, it looks to your other body resources to find this energy.”

Each and every night, as you sleep, your body utilises the ingredients within Slender Sleep and the energy from any excess fat reserves in your system to help maintain lean muscle mass.

Slender Sleep should be taken for a minimum of 3 consecutive months.

Mix 15ml of Slender Sleep in 200ml of water at bedtime before going to sleep, 3-4 hours after your last meal or snack, on an empty stomach. Stir well and drink within 20 minutes of preparation.

Slender Sleep Ingredients

• CLS (Conjugated Linoleic Acid)
• Collagen
• L-carnitine
• Asparagus
• Artichoke

Side Effects Caused By Slender Sleep

There should be not much cause for concern all natural ingredients are used in the formula.

Slender Sleep Where To Buy

Is Slender Sleep Worth Trying

Slimming drinks can be a bit hit and miss. The lack of any real convincing clinical data would suggest Slender Sleep falls into the latter camp.

Alternative Diet Drinks

Fibretrim has been created using clinical data from over 20 years of research and is based on the Zotrim diet pill formula.

Zotrim is possibly the diet pill with the most history behind it, the most independent clinical study and highest level of positive critical review.
