Mixing botanical slimming pills and alcohol, is this okay?

Sure: Botanical slimming pills are unlikely to do you any good in any case. Weight loss is primarily about lifestyle, and there's no magic. Most people who are serious about losing weight cut out alcohol especially while they are dieting. Why not undertake a fitness-focused lifestyle? It'll be fun and has other health benefits.
