PatentLean (r) | PatentLean Diet Pill | 7-keto-DHEA

PatentLEAN is a dietary supplement that is promoted for weight loss and body fat reduction.

Important Diet Pill Info:

The manufacturer claims that PatentLEAN increases the body's metabolism
to help break down fat and calories.

The active ingredient in PatentLEAN (7-keto-DHEA also called 7-oxo-DHEA) increases a type of thyroid hormone (T3) in the body and therefore increase the body's ability to metabolize calories and fat. While PatentLean does increase T3, this effect does not last long because the body corrects this change over time. Within four to six weeks, thyroid hormones should return to normal levels.

Most people still believe that weight loss is a short-term goal. And weight loss products claim they can help people lose weight for just this purpose. Unfortunately, this is the wrong way to lose weight simply because drastic weight loss (starvation dieting, fad diets, extreme exercise, stimulant drugs) leads people to gain the weight right back.

Almost all weight-loss experts agree that the key to long-term weight management lies in permanent lifestyle changes that include, among other things, a nutritious diet at a moderate caloric level and regular physical exercise. Nevertheless, advertisements for weight-loss products such as PatentLean saturate the marketplace, with many promising instantaneous success without the need to reduce caloric intake or increase physical activity.

While products such as PatentLean can help you get started on a weight loss path
- the best way is to slowly change your lifestyle. Eat less, exercise more. Period.

FTC comments about weight loss advertisements including 7-keto-DHEA (PatentLean):

Although some advertisements briefly describe the results, and provide some information about the methodology, of a particular study, such as the study’s duration and number of participating subjects, most of the advertisements fail to give consumers sufficient detail about a study to allow consumers to verify the advertiser’s representations. Moreover, 20 of the 117 ads making “clinically proven” claims were for products that contained ingredients already evaluated by the Federal Trade Commission in the context of past law enforcement actions challenging specific weight loss claims. These ingredients, which include fucus vesiculosus, chromium, L-carnitine, chitosan, psyllium, 7-keto-DHEA, hydroxycitric acid, seaweed, konjac root, garcinia cambogia and glucomannan, were challenged based on insufficient scientific evidence to support the weight loss claims made in the advertisements.

NCAHF News - May/June 2002
PHARMACISTS WARNED ABOUT "WEIGHT LOSS" PRODUCTS
The April 2002 issue of Pharmacist's Letter told pharmacists to advise patients to avoid products containing the following "natural weight loss" ingredients, especially if they are combined with caffeine, guarana, cola nut, mate, or tea: conjugated linoleic acid (in Body Solutions, Diene-O-Lean, Tonalin), 7-keto DHEA (in PatentLEAN, 7-Keto Fuel, 7 Keto Lean)-because little is know about its long-term safety, hydroxycitrate (in Citrimaax, CitriLean, Diet Fuel, Herbalife), ephedra (recalled in Canada), and bitter orange or country mallow (heartleaf) which contains ephedrine-related compounds. Pharmacist's Letter did not mention that pharmacists can help patients avoid products of unproven safety or effectiveness for weight loss by not selling them.
