Obesity and Weight Loss

Acomplia: Two-in-One Wonder Drug

Obesity continues to be one of the major health challenges of the 21st century, and as lifestyle and obesity related conditions like cardiac disease, hyper tension, and diabetes have come to stay, the need for an effective weight loss solution is more acute than ever. Close to two thirds of Americans are obese, and this puts them at increased risk of cardiac disease, high blood pressure and diabetes.

Although the field of medication for weight loss has been strewn with drugs that can be called experimental at best, they haven't been found to have any long lasting effects. This is because they don't work on controlling cravings. They might work on artificially suppressing hunger temporarily, but once cravings kick in, you might find yourself reaching out for that cheesecake and bag of chips again.

Often referred to as the wonder drug for its two-in-one benefits of smoking cessation and weight loss, Accomplia unlike previous anti smoking pills and weight loss medication is part of a new class of medicines that work on the endocannabinoid part of the nervous system that controls cravings. Accomplia thus works in an entirely different manner from other weight loss pills by blocking the circuitry in the brains that causes cravings. This novel approach to weight loss through medication has been conclusively proven by studies.

One such study showed that participants on Accomplia lost as much as 20 pounds. Persons, in fact, were found to have lost as much as 10 percent of their body weight, and even more surprisingly, were found able to keep the weight off longer. Those who reported weight loss through Accomplia reported that their weight stayed low for a period of two years. Other weight loss medication cannot keep weight off for long periods of time. Once the effects of the medication die down, the person only gains back all the extra pounds.

How Accomplia works

Both the tendency to overeat, and the addiction to nicotine are controlled by nerve receptors in our brain. These receptors are responsible for telling our body to eat over the required amount, and also work to create a craving for nicotine. Accomplia blocks the signals that the nerve receptors send to the body - when the signals are effectively blocked, the body doesn't feel the need for overeating or smoking, because the cravings have been effectively blocked at the source.

That's not all. Prolonged use of Accomplia is also proving to benefit people with cardio vascular disease by protecting the heart - one more good reason to say hello to accomplia!
