No: Diet pills may sound great, but are they a magic bullet?

DR MICHAEL MOSLEY: Diet pills may sound great, but are they a magic bullet?



"There are a raft of other pills that claim to reduce weight. Some are stimulants that suppress the appetite – these work but are generally outlawed in the UK as they are dangerous. Others, available over the counter, swell in the stomach leading to a feeling of fullness or claim to ‘boost the metabolism’ but there is scant evidence that these do anything."
