Thins
Is this ok to take Thins because i have a lot of friends who've been on that and they've successfully lost a lot of weight, but i've also heard from other people that it's not good cause you get heart pulpitations and stuff... i need to loose about 20 kilo's.
Please advise!

Dear Help
I am personally totally opposed to the use of slimming pills such as Thinz. Using slimming pills or liquids like Thinz that contain ephedrine, pseudo-epinephrine or synephrine can be very harmful. These components can cause a long list of negative side-effects (dependence, addiction, tremors, insomnia, palpitations, irritability, psychotic reactions, etc). These products have been banned in many countries because of their negative side-effects, which include addiction and dependence. Rather stick to an energy-reduced, low-fat, high-fibre diet (click on 'Diet' at the top of this page, 'Weight loss', ‘Balanced diet' and then on 'Slimming Diet' for a copy of such a diet), and increasing your energy output by doing regular exercise (running, jogging, skipping, cycling, swimming, join a gym or Walk for Life).
Be careful of such pills
