SlimQuick claims that its program for women supports fat loss. The program entails following a diet and exercise plan while taking one or more varieties of SlimQuick diet pills. SlimQuick recommends that you take its SlimQuick with Hoodia pills along with the SlimQuick Cleanse product if you want faster weight loss. Remember to consult your doctor before taking a weight loss pill.
Green Tea Extract
Each three-caplet serving of SlimQuick with Hoodia has 300 mg of green tea extract to promote fat loss. The Linus Pauling Institute Micronutrient Information Center states that some of the components in green tea are fluoride, which may help prevent dental cavities, caffeine and compounds called flavonoids, including epigallocatechin gallate (ECGC). Caffeine and ECGC may play a role in speeding up your metabolism, but many factors influence weight loss. For example, if you already have a high caffeine intake, taking a caffeine supplement may not affect your metabolism. As part of a healthy lifestyle, green tea may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, but research on these effects is ongoing. The Linus Pauling Institute Micronutrient Information Center warns that drinking small amounts of green tea is probably safe, but potential side effects of taking an extract may include diarrhea, nausea and dizziness.
Hoodia
Hoodia gordonii is a plant from the southern parts of Africa, and MayoClinic.com explains that African hunters have historically used it as an appetite suppressant during long hunts. Today, it is an ingredient in many weight loss supplements because of its potential to reduce hunger. SlimQuick with Hoodia has 550 mg of hoodia in each three-tablet serving. The Food and Drug Administration does not evaluate dietary supplements for safety or effectiveness, so be cautious about taking a weight loss supplement. MayoClinic.com also warns that some manufacturers claim their dietary supplements have hoodia even if they do not contain this herb.
Calcium and Vitamin D
You may already know calcium and vitamin D for their roles in bone health, since calcium is an essential mineral in bones and vitamin D helps your body absorb and use dietary calcium. Beyond their role in strengthening bones, though, calcium and vitamin D may support weight loss, and SlimQuick with Hoodia lists calcium and vitamin D as active ingredients. The formula provides 400 mg of calcium, or 40 percent of the daily value for calcium, and 200 IU of vitamin D, or 50 percent of the daily value. According to the Linus Pauling Institute Micronutrient Information Center, people with higher calcium intakes may be more able to control their weight, but the evidence is not yet definitive. Talk to your doctor for advice if you are considering a calcium supplement to help you lose weight.
