Q.

Do Adios slimming tablets work?

Hiya, wanted to know if adios slimming tablets really do work with a calorie controlled diet and if so how???

A.

Our expert says...

My understanding is that Adios is a licensed herbal medicine which means that the manufacturers have had to prove safety, quality and effectiveness. And that's good, because there are many herbal products on the market where this is not the case. The ingredients including fucus, said to stimulate the thyroid gland which controls metabolic rate, but I think we still have to remember that most of us are overweight through eating too much and taking too little exercise, not a sluggish metabolism! Whilst it's fine to give these tablets a try I wouldn?t expect then to have any major effect. Perhaps you can report back and let us know?
