I get it…the idea that by simply just taking a pill and you will burn body fat is an enticing one, but also a lie!
What most people assume with fat burners and actually what people want from a fat burner is a pill to help them lose weight, and there are no such products on the market today with scientific support for effectively reducing your weight.
In a trial by Tippens (2014) subjects were split into 3 different groups and given a 12 week intervention about how to lose body fat.
Group 1 - Were given placebo pills (but told they were fat burners)
Group 2 - Were given placebo pills (but told it might be a placebo or a fat burner)
Group 3 - Were not given a pill
After the 12 weeks all 3 groups lost the same amount of weight as each other!!
However…
Group 1 and 2 credited more of their weight loss to the pill, rather than giving themselves credit for their hard work and lifestyle changes. Whereas group 3 had a much higher self efficacy and maintained the weight loss due to this…
A final point to note…the placebo group also experienced “adverse” effects which they were told may be a side effect of these (fake) fat burners. This is known as the nocebo effect and shows that there may even be negative effects of taking a “harmless” pill with no proven effect.
In Summary
For sustainable fat-loss focus on what really works
1. A Caloric Deficit
2. Consistency

3. Patience
Do not rely on fat burners or any ’Magic Supplement’ to burn fat for you…
You can do this!!
