None: Supplements will not replace discipline and an appropriate low carbohydrate diet.

They're scams: I think that every physician here will agree that health doesn't start with a pill bottle. Nothing you can take will replace the discipline of remaining somewhat hungry, eating only to satisfy real hunger, and getting into serious exercise and making it a focus of your friendships.

None: There are no natural or unnatural chemicals that will help in reducing weight. There is no substitute for caloric restriction and increase in physical activity. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
