If it's Facebook Ads that's even more reason to not buy the stuff.

All you need to do to significantly boost your metabolism is gain muscle. Yes there's some work involved but it's a lot cheaper than buying dodgy pharma products .

There's not even that much work involved, it's not like you have to go to the gym or out running or any of that trash, you can just arse about with some weights and watch a film or whatever. Diet doesn't really matter either. If you're getting enough protein you'll put on muscle and metabolic rate will increase

I'm around 5 feet 10 tall, and at one point I was 22 stone.

This was about 23 years ago.

I was massive. I was that fat I could put my belly in the bathroom sink.

Now I am just 12 stone. No drugs to lose weight.

JUST cut food down A LOT. Never eat after 5pm. And no booze.

Topiramate tends to be of much more guaranteed use if side-effects can be tolerated. People can lose as much as 7 stone in 3 months on that thing but British doctors (especially GPs, who know little about niche to begin with) are less likely to prescribe it off-label for weight-loss than American doctors.

[Livia]

People will have to buy this stuff themselves, GPs will be spending the money on other stuff and I guarantee people will not be able to get this medication unless they buy it themselves. The NHS won't even prescribe a wonder drug for Alzheimers but continue to pay for sex reassignment surgery, for instance.

I wouldn’t mind some of this.
I am diabetic, have both heart and kidney failure, riddled with arthritis.
Might have to mention it to my doc. However I can remember him looking into it for me a good while back and saying it wasn’t suitable with my health issues, this new research might throw a new light on it.
