Garcinia Cambogia with Apple Cider Vinegar: Miracle or Another Fad?

Garcinia Cambogia with Apple Cider Vinegar: Miracle or Another Fad? By Erica Bossert You may have seen some news stories talking about the amazing combination of Trim® Garcinia Cambogia with Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) and how it helped celebrities, like Melissa McCarthy and Jonah Hill, lose a significant amount of weight FAST. If you are anything like me, maybe you have felt so hopeless with losing weight that you would try anything if it meant you could drop 10 pounds by next week without giving up sweets. After hearing about the studies conducted by a Stanford student (click here to read the article from CNN) I went to the store to buy 100% Garcinia Cambogia and ACV. (I have trust issues with ordering free trials online because I ended up having to pay $90 for another diet pill that gave you a month's worth, but the free trial apparently only lasted 2 weeks.) Here is my experience with this "miracle combo": I finished both bottles in about 2 weeks and my weight loss was about 3 pounds; not AT ALL what was promised. I did exactly what they said to do, didn't change my diet or exercise routine, yet I still didn't see a big difference. I didn't have more or less energy from before taking the combination. After I stopped taking it, because my diet never changed, I put those 3 pounds right back on. You also have to chug the ACV and water because it is DISGUSTING and burns your tongue and throat from the acidity. There are also more side effects to this pill that you will not find in these weight loss testimonials. According to WebMd, the medical form, phendimetrazine, is prescribed WITH a reduced-calorie diet and exercise program to help obese patients lose weight. Now I know why Alex Ryan (one of the case studies in the CNN article above) miraculously gained those amazing abs. There have also not been enough studies to show how the pill helps people lose weight. Some of the possible side effects (click here for more side effects) to Trim® Garcinia Cambogia, also known as the Trim Tab Tablet, include difficulty sleeping, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and irritability. Not to mention you may experience some withdrawal symptoms after discontinuing. Just as with any diet fad, there have not been a lot of medically researched studies to prove the combination of Trim® Garcinia Cambogia with Apple Cider Vinegar can help most people lose a significant amount of weight. We also don't know what happens after you stop taking the pill. Will it be just as easy to gain the weight back as it was to lose it, like what happened to me, or will you be able to keep it off? In my opinion, losing weight shouldn't be that fast or that easy, not to mention risky. Having a healthy lifestyle, meaning having a primarily healthy diet, exercising regularly, and having a healthy mindset, is the absolute BEST way to lose weight and keep it off for good. :) All the best, Erica
