Truth Is Not Difficult

Obesity A Curse


Obesity is one of the biggest curses of civilisation. With all round development people are becoming lazy as they are getting more time to rest and more food to eat and less physical exercises. The consequence is easily visible; different diseases are affecting them now. As such obesity has become the bane of the life of modern day people.

Miracle Drug


In such a scenario if anything is found out that can stop this increasing weight gaining problem obviously it would be most welcome. Exactly that has happened when Dr Oz exhibited the bottle of Raspberry ketone in his daily show 'Dr Oz Show' and declared it as "miracle fat burner in a bottle". He thought those red pills in the bottle made from the natural compound of raspberry were really powerful. According to him this Raspberry ketone charges up body's fat burning function increasing the fat bursting work. So he advises people to take daily 100 mg of this pill and also do regular exercises along with healthy food. He assures us that in a few weeks time results could be seen.

A Wonder Fruit


Actually the wonderful aroma of raspberries is due to the compound Raspberry ketone. This aroma is, as we have learnt now, used to add fragrance to cosmetics and flavour to different food. Though expensive commercially it is quite successful and popular.

Garcinia Cambogia came to public eye as we said earlier after Dr Oz declared it a miracle drug. His passionate description of its quality impressed his audience deeply. In fact it created such hype that the sale of Raspberry ketone increased to a great extent which was unforeseen before. People were more than ready to buy bottles at $12 to $20. It seems much easier to them than consuming 90 pounds of raspberries.


Homely Truth

But why should we consume 90 pounds of raspberries which frankly seems very daunting? Andrea Vogel who is a registered dietician at St. Luke's Regional Medical Center said that to get the benefit of this compound one has to consume no less than 90 pounds.

Vogel also said that it is Raspberry ketone that assists in metabolism which means the procedure by which our bodies process food. It does this by increasing adiponectin and norepinephrine, the two hormones in our body. These two hormones have important but different functions. We should know that Adiponectin lowers glucose levels in our body, and norepinephrine raises the temperature of the body.

But Vogel also warns that just by swallowing these pills we would not lose our weight. We have to eat healthy food and exercise regularly while taking this Raspberry ketone to keep our body weight under control. In fact these other factors are essential and age old method. Without them no ketone supplement in the world will have the power to reduce weight. There is no miracle drug which can reduce weight. One has to use the old methods of proper diet and exercise which have proven themselves to be effective so long ago.

But there is one important thing we should remember and that is we should always consult our physician before taking any supplement even if it is Raspberry ketone.
