Diet Pills
and Health: Danger of Overdose
Nonprescription Diet Pills - Risks of
Overdose
Some nonprescription diet pills boost your
metabolism in order to reduce appetite or burn extra calories. These amphetamine-type
weight loss pills were popular 30-40 years ago, until doctors realized
that they could be addictive and harmful. Few people managed to diet successfully
and keep weight off with them, and many became physically hooked.
Today's diet pills may cause similar dangers.
Doses of supplements which are sufficient to cause weight loss can also
cause tremors, severe headaches, heart palpitations and high blood pressure.
This is exacerbated by the fact that many non-prescription weight loss
pills or diet supplements are not labelled with amounts of active weight
loss ingredients, so knowing how much of a drug or weight loss agent you're
getting can be impossible.
Diet Pills - Stackers
Furthermore, some diet pills are 'stacked'
or combined with others in order to boost their effects on fat metabolism
and appetite reduction. These 'stackers' can easily deliver a powerful
jolt to the system and should be used carefully to prevent overdose.
