The Fastest Weight Loss Pills? The Liver Detox Diet and Liver Cleansing Foods

Thursday, November 18th, 2010

What’s the Fastest Weight Loss Pill on the Market Today?



The weight loss pill industry is HUGE today, and they all claim to be “the fastest weight loss pill”.  There are healthier and more long-term things you can and need to do for fast permanent weight loss, but I’ll review some of the fastest weight loss pills, whether they’re safe, FDA approved, ‘benefits’, quality and whether they’re reputable fast weight loss products.

Experts recommend diet pills like Apidexin, LipoFuze, Phenphedrine, etc., which “ensure” fast fat burning and help people lose weight.  BUT, it’s not recommended to take any weight loss pill long-term, and usually you’ll gain the weight back (or more!)  UNLESS you change your lifestyle, diet and physical activities.  Regardless of how you lose the weight, the only way you’ll keep it off and maintain your weight loss goal is by actively and consistently improving your lifestyle.


Here’s a chart from the FDA’s 2010 database showing data for various weight loss pills:

Product Claim Effectiveness Safety
Alli — OTC version of prescription drug orlistat (Xenical) Decreases absorption of dietary fat Effective; weight-loss amounts typically less for OTC versus prescription FDA investigating reports of liver injury
Bitter orange Increases calories burned Insufficient reliable evidence to rate Possibly unsafe
Chitosan Blocks absorption of dietary fat Insufficient reliable evidence to rate Possibly safe
Chromium Increases calories burned, decreases appetite and builds muscle Insufficient reliable evidence to rate Likely safe
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) Reduces body fat and builds muscle Possibly effective Possibly safe
Country mallow (heartleaf) Decreases appetite and increases calories burned Insufficient reliable evidence to rate Likely unsafe and banned by FDA
Ephedra Decreases appetite Possibly effective Likely unsafe and banned by FDA
Green tea extract Increases calorie and fat metabolism and decreases appetite Insufficient reliable evidence to rate Possibly safe
Guar gum Blocks absorption of dietary fat and increases feeling of fullness Possibly ineffective Likely safe
Hoodia Decreases appetite Insufficient reliable evidence to rate Insufficient information







As I’ve said before, the FDA  banned the weight loss pill “Hydroxycut” due to indication of severe health issues.  In 2009 they identified 72 over-the-counter weight loss products that could have adverse health affects.  This included “Sibutramine”  as a prescription, “Rimonabant” not yet approved, and “Phenolphthalein”, being researched as a ‘cancer-causing’ agent.  To identify false claims on fast weight loss supplements, only accept statements made by impartial, governmental or educational agencies, researchers or scientists.  Talk to your doctor.  They have reliable, up-to-date information about prescription and over-the-counter weight loss aids.  And Do Your Research.  Don’t trust ‘personal testimonials’.

The Liver Detox Diet and Liver Cleansing Foods

According to WebMD, using a natural liver detox diet to remove toxins from your body sounds good, but most have little supporting scientific data.  They’re very restrictive, and can be harmful if not used exactly as indicated.  Some potentially harmful toxins they’re designed to remove are caffeine, alcohol, additives and preservatives like artificial sweeteners, sugar, chemicals and pesticides to grow and prepare food, pollution, even water if it’s not totally pure.

A liver detox diet or any detox diet includes fasting, giving up certain kinds of foods, then gradually re-introducing certain foods back into your diet.  You might start with a liquid detox diet, then graduate to brown rice, steamed vegetables or fruit.  Then you might add other foods except wheat, sugar, eggs, processed/packaged or junk food, and red meat.  Natural organic foods, drinks and a lot of water are the usual diets when on a natural liver detox diet.  Processed, refined foods, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco drugs and certain supplements aren’t allowed.

Some popular fat burning diets, liver detox diets and liver cleansing foods are:

  • Lemonade diet, Stanley Burroughs’ “Master Cleanse Diet” with the Master Cleanse book and Master Cleanse lemonade recipe (aka “master lemon cleanse”, “lemon juice cleansing diet”, “liver cleansing diet” or “lemonade cleansing diet”)  Click Here
  • Liver Cleansing Diet (liver detox diet) Click Here
  • Fat Flush Diet, “The Truth About Six Pack Abs” by Mike Geary Click Here
  • Raw Food Cleanse Diet (raw food books and raw food diet recipes with easy raw food recipes for beginners) Click Here
  • Fat Loss 4 Idiots Program, diet for idiots (includes fat loss for idiots free download, fat loss for idiots book, fat loss for idiots diet generator, fat loss for idiots menu  and fat loss for idiots food, fat loss for idiots forum, fat loss for idiots blog and fat loss for idiots log) Click Here
  • Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle Diet by Rob Poulos (burn fat feed muscle book or burn the fat feed the muscle download to burn fat build muscles fast, burn ab fat, easy ways to burn fat, how to eat to burn fat, vegetables that burn fat, exercises to burn stomach fat and burn the fat feed the muscle free download  Click Here
  • 21 Pounds in 21 Days: The Martha’s Vineyard Diet Detox (21 day detox diet book, how to lose 21 pounds in 21 days, lose pounds in one day, 21 pound in 21 days)

Those that recommend a liver detox diet believe that doing this occasionally cleans built up toxins and chemicals from the body, and that it can increase energy and a clearer head, even prevention or cure of chronic disease.  Some even recommend a colon irrigation to clean out your colon.

Liver Cleansing Foods

Some natural liver cleansing foods include:

  • Fruits like apples, citrus fruits, berries and prunes have high antioxidants
  • “Cruciferous” vegetables like broccoli, brussel sprouts and cabbage help the liver produce natural enzymes and protect the liver from toxins in cigarette smoke
  • “Bitter” greens like dandelion, chicory or endive stimulate bile production, which helps the liver digest fats.  They can be eaten raw in salads
  • Lemon tea:  Hot water with freshly squeezed lemon juice helps cleanse the liver and blood.  Lemon is a natural astringent
  • Milk thistle contains “Silymarin”, a popular liver-protecting herb as a tea or supplement, including for Acetaminophen, which can be toxic in high doses

You can research the best and fastest weight loss pills, liver detox diets and liver cleansing foods at reputable sites like the FDA.  Just be thorough, and remember:  If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is!

Best Foods to Lose Weight: Metabolism Boosting Foods and Other Good Foods for Weight Loss


Runner’s World lists the 20 best foods to lose weight, and I’ll list them in this post.  They talk about metabolism boosting foods and foods with negative calories as good foods for weight loss, and these are great weight loss tips that work.  I’ll set out the best foods to lose weight below for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and desserts.  You know avid runners are very into foods that help increase metabolism for energy, and Runner’s World should know what they are.

I’ll provide a basic list of the 20 best foods to lose weight and provide a link to Runner’s World so you can learn more if you like.  If you concentrate on making diet changes over a year and stick to the plan, you can lose a lot of weight.  Many of these foods will help you reduce 100 calories and more from just one serving.  You can save 15,600 calories in a year just from changing this one food item, and you lose one pound for every 3,500 calories you cut.  Each time you substitute one food item, you’ll double that weight loss.  And DON’T SKIP BREAKFAST.  I ‘preach’ this all the time, but it really is the most important meal of the day, and gives you the energy to burn more calories throughout the day.  Following is a summary of the 20 best foods to lose weight by meal.

Fat Burning Diets and Fat Burning Recipesfat burning diets

Fat Burning Diets are very popular, but can they really help you burn more calories faster?  The concept of fat burning diets, including the Fat Burning Furnace Rob Poulos developed, is knowing the right combination of foods and fat burning recipes along with the best fat burning exercises will help you burn more calories faster.

If you know what fat burning foods and vigorous exercise routines to do, it will help you lose your body fat.  Increasing your protein intake helps reduce your appetite and recover more quickly from workouts.  If you follow the plan which includes changing your lifestyle and eating habits, you’ll succeed.  It’s important to continue eating food you like in moderation, but you need to know what types of foods will help your body burn fat when you exercise.  Fat burning diets include things like:

  • Fruits and vegetables because they have high water content, they’re filling, and they give your body the vitamins and minerals it needs
  • High fiber, whole grain “complex” carbohydrates like brown rice, oatmeal, whole wheat pasta and breads (make sure they’re 100%) give you more fiber and higher energy levels for a longer period of time
  • Reduce or eliminate “refined” carbohydrates like white breads, pastas, rice, etc., because they have more calories and very little nutritional value
  • Healthy fats from things like peanut butter, olive oil or flaxseed oil and avocados
  • Drink a lot of water.  You should drink at least 6-8 Large glasses of water a day, the more the better.  It has zero calories, it fills you up and hydrates your body to burn more calories more efficiently
  • If you don’t eat enough calories for your age, activity level and size to “fuel” your body, you won’t lose weight, because you won’t have energy to burn calories
  • You need a good amount of healthy protein like poultry and egg whites, skinless poultry, lean beef or fish, nuts and beans, and low fat dairy products

Fat Burning Recipes

Fat burning recipes can include things like low carb, high protein items like pancakes or cultural cuisine, quiche, baked, grilled or steamed fish, pizza and stir fry.  Here’s one of the fat burning recipes to try that only takes about 35 minutes to prepare and serve:
