12 Of The Biggest Weight Loss Myths

Myth #11: Herbal weight-loss products and programs are often safe and effective

Weight loss products that make claims to be fully herbal are not always necessarily safe for you to consume wholeheartedly. Frequently herbal products are scientifically untested and are unable to prove if they’re actually effective OR safe.
