Weight Loss: The mediterranean diet is regarded by the world health organization as the most effective diet for weight management and health. The closer you stay to a plant based diet the better in all regards.

None: There is no "best" weight loss supplement or pill on the market because none of them do any good. The only thing that loses weight is your wallet. The only thing that works is eating less and exercising more. You have to burn off 3500 calories to lose a pound. You need to find an appropriate diet and exercise program you can follow life-long. Good luck.

There is no one best: pill. Weight loss meds: Alli, Xenical (orlistat),Meridia (sibutramine), Adipex-P (phentermine) and Sanorex (mazindol). To lose weight insure that calories burned > calories consumed. Drink at least 8 - 8 oz glasses of water per day. Try for 8 hours of sleep/night. Aim for at least 5 servings of vegetables & 4 servings of fruit per day. Use whole grain when possible. Avoid sodas, alcohol & junk
