Diet patch weight loss system

Diet patches

stick like Band-Aids on the skin and allegedly assist in weight loss

. They claim that the active weigh loss ingredients contained in the patches seep into the body system via the skin, thereby suppressing the appetite and increasing the metabolism. The weight loss ingredients found in diet patches are often the same as those found in oral weight loss products.

Where’s the scientific evidence that you lose weight with diet patches?

Diet patches may seem like a dieter’s dream come true. They make for an extremely convenient and simple solution. However, the effects of diet patches have been highly controversial. There is no clinical evidence to support whether diet patches really work. Although ingredients like zinc pyruvate and green tea have been clinically shown to assist in weight loss when ingested orally, no study has ever been conducted to tell us whether or not the same effects occur when the ingredients are applied to the skin. Some people argue that the amount of ingredients needed for fat loss must get into your system within a short period of time in order to have maximum effect; this is not feasible with diet patches. Others say that weight loss ingredients create the same effects, whether they are ingested orally or applied to the skin. There is no way to substantiate either claim until studies on diet patches are actually conducted.
