Solo Slim Review

Suppresses Appetite All Day Long

Solo Slim is a weight loss supplement that is taken only once a day before breakfast. Its manufacturers say it is an all natural product, made up of a proprietary blend of ingredients that suppress the appetite and regulate cravings for food. So the argument of Solo Slim as a weight loss product is that it makes people eat less and still feel satisfied.

Natural, Caffeine-Free

One benefit of Solo Slim is that it does not contain caffeine. Another benefit is it improves metabolism without any chemicals or artificial substances. And because it is natural, it does not contain any trace of ephedra.

About Solo Slim Weight Loss

Solo Slim comes in two formats: Solo Slim Original and Solo Slim Extra Strength. The manufacturers say that most people can take Solo Slim Original because it is effective in all counts: appetite suppression, energy, increased metabolic rates. The people who should take the Extra Strength format are those who have been taking Solo Slim Original for a long time and need to lose much more weight, or for people who have a larger body frame.

Consult your Doctor First

Even if Solo Slim is an all-natural supplement that does not contain any drugs, people on other types of medication should first consult their doctor before taking this herbal supplement.

Solo Slim Warning

Following advice from the Hong Kong Department of Health, Health Canada issued a warning about Solo Slim in August 2008. This is Health Canada’s statement:

Reason for Warning
The Hong Kong Department of Health warned against the use of Soloslim because it was found to contain an undeclared compound similar in structure to sibutramine (N-bisdesmethyl-sibutramine). Sibutramine is a prescription drug used in the treatment of obesity. Soloslim also contains L-carnitine salt. L-carnitine is a prescription drug used in the treatment of carnitine deficiency, which may occur in patients with some genetic diseases, serious liver or kidney disease or with use of certain medications (e.g. valproate).

Both sibutramine and L-carnitine should only be used under the supervision of a health care professional.

Soloslim also contains synephrine. Weight loss products containing synephrine are not authorized for sale in Canada.

Possible Side-Effects
Use of sibutramine may cause headaches, increased heart rate and blood pressure, chest pain and stroke.

Side-effects associated with L-carnitine include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, diarrhea and seizures.

Synephrine may cause cardiovascular adverse effects that could lead to stroke, heart attack and/or death.
