Recently I returned to Weight Watchers to take off pounds and also resumed Glabinex for the belly fat. Again the belly fat is losing density. I’m also losing weight.

Glabrinex is not a diet pill. Dr. Jones never promoted it as such. It was promoted as an aid to reducing abdominal fat, plain and simple. That doesn’t necessarily translate into weight loss. My stomach became softer, more malleable and protruded less but I didn’t lose weight.

The fat doesn’t come off with a pill, it requires hard work, and exercise. Glabrinex works on me in a similar manner as melting a pound of butter. The butter is melted down to liquid. It is still a pound of fat but with less bulk. Eventually through proper diet and exercise, the body flushes the fat and true weight loss occurs.

Editor’s comments: Claire, according to the product advertising, “animal and human research indicates supplementing with Glabrinex helps decrease visceral and abdominal fat. Preliminary research suggests it also helps prevent weight gain.” That’s an identical claim made by many retailers of diet pills, so suggesting this is not advertised as diet pill isn’t exactly accurate.

Additionally, Glabrinex does not melt fat (if you check the Glabrinex review, you’ll see the studies showed very little in the way of results) nor does the body “flush fat”. Fat is a stored energy source. If it is mobilized, it must be burnt as fuel, or it is re-deposited.

As for Dr. Jones, this medical free radical is forever and ever pushing something or the other in his weekly columns.
