Hydroxycut Recall

  

Incredibly, if you do a Google search for Hydroxycut weight loss/fat burning products, lawyers are already advertising for patients who suffered liver failure or complications after taking this weight loss supplement.  The FDA recently announced the recall of Hydroxycut products and recommends that if you use these products you immediately terminate use. 

See http://www.fda.gov/bbs/topics/NEWS/2009/NEW02006.html.  Hydroxycut has been attributed to at least one death in a 19-year-old due to liver failure.  This just underscores that all chemical dietary aids are and should be used only as temporary weight loss treatment and should be used with caution.  I do not advocate for the use of such weight loss products and I teach all my patients that behavior and lifestyle changes are the key factors to long-term weight loss success.
