    It is not used in UK at all. So I am not sure why people are taking it in US. I am very surprised about it. Only medicine which is recommended is Orlistat.

    Fen-Phen is deadly and was taken off the market, not Phentermine. Phentermine is a drug that's been approved by the FDA since 1952. I think 60 years is long enough to be sure that under a physician's care, one might be able to safely take this drug.

    While you may be skeptical to some of these, there are things on this list that are true!

    Also in regards to ice cold water, it also ups your metabolism because the water naturally cools your internal temperature. In turn, your body has to "work" to get back to a normal temperature...hence more calorie burn.

    Chile pepper: 1 tablespoon of chopped red or green chile pepper can boost metabolic rate by 20%. The effect lasts 1/2 hour. Recommend take 20 minutes before eating. The "hotter" the better. Chile pepper causes a thermobaric reaction — that's why you feel hot. It burns calories to make you hot!

    This is the same misinterpretation that allows the infrared sauna makers to claim their products burn calories. Just because you feel hot and are sweating doesn't mean your metabolic rate has increased. The active ingredient in most hot peppers passes through your body undigested - why do you think you get ring sting after eating really spicy food?

    FISH OIL: EPA and DHA, the omega-3 fatty acids found only in fish oil, may have the power to dramatically boost your metabolism -- by about 400 calories per day, researchers from the University of Western Ontario report. Fish oil increases levels of fat-burning enzymes and decreases levels of fat-storage enzymes in your body. For the best metabolism boosting benefit, choose capsules containing at least 300 milligrams of EPA and DHA total.

    I take this for depression. I have, uh, oily stools. I don't know if my body isn't absorbing the pills or other fats I'm eating.

    Make sure you are taking the fish oil with a meal and you can also add a digesive enzyme to help your body digest the fish oil...
