Q.
What are your views on Adios?
I have recently joined this site to help me keep track of my diet as I try to loose 1 stone in time for summer. I have a reasonably healthy diet and exercise regularly, but red wine and chocolate in the evening has allowed the weight to creep on over the past 2 years. I have also been taking Adios diet pills recently, they're meant to speed up your metabolism when taken at meal times. However I have read some mixed reviews online and was wondering if you could offer any further advice or information on pills such as these. Are there any better pills available on the market? Thanks so much for your help.

Our expert says...
Hello,
Welcome to our site! If you take a look in the different forums you will see that other members have commented on these types of products in the past and, in the main, they are not particularly positive comments.
Adios is a herbal medicine which claims to speed up weight loss. The product contains herbal ingredients derived from Butternut (sometimes known as Juglans), Dandelion Root, Boldo and Fucus. My understanding is that these ingredients are believed to stimulate the thyroid gland and, therefore, increase metabolic rate, but I have to say that I am not aware of anyone having used this product and experienced an increase in weight loss.
I am often asked about these types of products, but I am afraid I have not come across that miracle product which will make weight loss easy. I would probably be very rich and famous if I had!
You say that your diet is quite healthy and that you exercise regularly. I would encourage you to focus on these things and to stick with the tried and tested method of calorie controlled eating and exercise. All the best.
