The desire for an ideal figure is initially embedded in women's nature. To correct weight and give the figure the desired shape, various methods and means are used, sometimes even very dubious, but, nevertheless, helping to get rid of hated extra pounds. Thai weight loss pills are exactly such means.

It is worth noting that this name does not indicate a specific pharmacological product, it is a generalized name for weight correction products manufactured in Southeast Asia under the guise of Thai weight loss pills. Yes, the composition of Thai pills has been developed and tested in legal medical centers in Thailand that deal with weight correction. The main components of these drugs are herbal infusions. However, the export of weight loss pills from the country is prohibited, and what domestic manufacturers offer us is not a certified product.

Weight correction with pills from Thailand

Indications for the use of diet pills are excess weight, obesity, as well as diseases that require weight loss at the insistence of the attending physician.

The most popular Thai weight loss pills were developed by the Institute of Beauty in Bangkok and are named by analogy with the priority monthly weight control program - "YANHEE". The weight loss program itself has several types of courses, slightly different in composition and the number of pills taken:

  • «STANDARD»
  • "STRONG"
  • «STRONG PLUS»
  • «SUPER STRONG»
  • "SUPER SUPER STRONG"

All these courses are designed for different speeds of weight loss and different initial weights. They also differ in the number of bags with tablets: from 8 to 13 pieces.
The pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of this drug follow from the properties of its 14 components. Some of them reduce the feeling of hunger, others reduce slagging of the body and promote rapid fat burning, cleanse the intestines and improve digestion, others have a diuretic and choleretic effect.

We will consider the method of application and dosage of Thai weight loss pills "Yanhee" using the example of the course "SUPER SUPER STRONG", consisting of 13 sachets, designed for morning, afternoon and evening use (and so for each course regardless of the number of sachets), painted in the appropriate colors and signed: BREAKFAST (breakfast) - red sachets, LUNCH (lunch) - blue sachets, BED TIME (before bedtime) - green sachets.

The tablets are taken according to the following scheme:

  • Morning and afternoon tablets are taken half an hour before meals.
  • Evening – half an hour before going to bed.

You need to take one tablet from the appropriate packet, washing it down with at least 1 glass of water.

When taking Yanhi tablets, it is necessary to ensure sufficient water consumption (at least 2 liters per day). Among drinks, preference should be given to compotes and herbal infusions, avoiding drinks with caffeine, "fizzy drinks" and alcohol. Additional means that enhance the effect of weight loss tablets are: adequate sleep, regular meals, eating fruits and berries, reducing the amount of fatty and sweet foods, an active lifestyle without significant physical activity.

Yanhi tablets allow you to lose 8 to 20 kg of weight in a month's course. But their use may be accompanied by undesirable side effects, reflected in the instructions for use, which disappear with the right approach to treatment:

  • dry mucous membranes (you need to drink more water),
  • increased heart rate, dizziness, weakness, which occur due to a decrease in sugar in the body (it is worth eating a spoonful of honey or sweet syrup),
  • insomnia (honey and milk will fix it)
  • constipation (eat more fruits, especially those with a laxative effect).

There are also some contraindications to the use of Thai weight loss pills according to the "YANHEE" program. These include: heart and vascular diseases, hypertension, renal and hepatic insufficiency, diabetes.

No less popular and effective Thai weight loss pills are "THAI BEARS" (Thai bears) from the pharmaceutical company "Siam Pharmaceutical", the wonderful composition of which was developed at the end of the last century. At first, Thai doctors who treated obesity became interested in them, but very quickly the bright packages with funny bears gained popularity and flew around the world.

The "Thai Bears" program has 4 courses similar to the "Yanhee" courses. These two drugs have almost everything in common: the method of application, dosage, contraindications, side effects and even the color and number of bags in the courses. The basis of these tablets, according to the instructions, is a complex of plant materials that have a tonic, diuretic, choleretic, laxative, diaphoretic and sedative effect, promoting fat burning and stabilizing digestion.

Many people note the rapid action of these pills, when kilograms begin to melt away right before your eyes from the first day of taking them. A month-long course of treatment with "Thai Bears" allows you to easily lose 8 to 15 kg of excess weight.

Gentle weight loss products from Thailand

Weight loss courses from Thailand from the St. Carlos Hospital, according to the instructions, also contain natural substances that reduce appetite, burn fat, protect many organs and systems of the body, have a diuretic, laxative and sedative effect, plus a vitamin complex. The most popular is the six-month weight correction course Medislim Standard (4 months of fighting excess weight and 2 months of stabilizing the result), consisting of 10 packets numbered from 1 to 10, inside which are packets of tablets for morning, afternoon and evening use.

The scheme of taking the drug is slightly different from the previous 2 types of Thai tablets. First, use bags with numbers 1 through 8 in turn. Drink them according to the following scheme:

  • in the morning before breakfast, 1 capsule from the blue packets,
  • at 12 o'clock after eating from yellow packets,
  • at 4 pm from orange bags,
  • after dinner, before going to bed 2-3 hours from purple bags.

At the end of the intensive course, they move on to weight stabilization using packages 9 and 10. Tablets from them are taken 3 times a week according to the same 4-times regimen.

The side effects of the drug and methods of combating them are the same as in previous cases (dry mucous membranes, constipation, increased sweating, insomnia, etc. Contraindications for use are cardiovascular diseases, thyroid diseases, hypertension, chronic liver and kidney diseases.

It is also not recommended to take the drug on the eve of sports competitions, during heavy physical exertion, before menstruation (the course should be started no later than a week before the event). The use of Thai weight loss pills is highly undesirable both in children under 16 years of age and during pregnancy.

Overdosing and poisoning with oriental weight loss products can be easily avoided if you take them strictly according to the scheme described in the instructions for each drug, and do not use the tablets after their expiration date (2-3 years depending on the drug). They should be stored, like other medications, without access to light at a temperature not exceeding 25 o C.

Another fashionable trend in the field of weight correction is IBS tablets, developed by Inter Bangkok Clinic. Like other Thai weight loss tablets, IBS is created on the basis of plant materials with properties that promote weight loss. To maintain functions and restore the body, the treatment complex contains vitamin supplements.

The IBS program has 5 courses within it that are interconnected: STANDARD, INTENSIVE, MINI, MAGNUM, SUPER STRONG. Their duration varies from 1 to 6 months, but all of them are designed for a gradual weight loss of 8-10 kg without causing harm to the body due to rapid weight loss.

According to the creators, these tablets do not contain substances from the amphetamine series (fenfluramine and phentermine), which have a narcotic effect on the body, causing mental disorders: insomnia, irritability, anxiety, and due to this, contribute to rapid weight loss. The absence of psychotropic substances reduces a number of contraindications to a minimum, i.e. increased sensitivity to the components of the drug and related side effects: allergic manifestations and reactions from the gastrointestinal tract.

These pills may not bring the promised result, but they certainly won't harm your body. But whether they are worth the money spent (and a lot!) is up to you to decide, because almost every second domestic weight loss tea has a composition similar to any Thai pills.

Are Thai pills safe for the body?

The positive effect of medicinal herbs on the body does not need to be proven, but not everyone knows that the composition of dubious Thai weight loss pills, often supplied via the Internet, includes psychotropic drugs, so-called amphetamines. Due to this, appetite decreases, mood, performance and even metabolism improve.

But modern research has proven the negative impact of amphetamines on a person's mental health and the functioning of many organs and systems of the body in the case of long-term use of these drugs. Despite the fact that practice shows decent results of these pills - minus 8-15 kg per course, there is a high probability of ending up in the hospital after weight correction for treatment of complications associated with taking diet pills. But if this happens, you will not even have anyone to make a claim to.

It is worth noting that not all drugs without appropriate certificates are counterfeits. A certain percentage of this product is a quality and actually safe product based on the knowledge of Tibetan medicine. If you have confidence in the supplier, you can start “sculpting” your figure with the help of Thai weight loss pills without any hesitation.

The following is information for those who do not trust domestic drugs and are ready to take the risk of starting treatment for excess weight with pills from Thailand.

Is it worth the risk?

But what our pharmaceutical science has not yet come up with is tablets with tapeworm eggs like the Thai "Lida". Worms literally suck out all the nutrients from the body, due to which the effect of weight loss is achieved. Included with capsules containing parasite larvae is a neutralizing capsule, which, according to the manufacturers, is capable of destroying all worms in the patient's body. It should be taken after completing the course of weight correction with the drug "Lida".

But according to reviews from people who risked using “infected” Thai weight loss pills, the above-mentioned “magic” capsule does not always work, and the weight correction course has to be supplemented with a treatment course to eliminate the consequences of the thoughtless use of such an unsafe product.

The descriptions of the side effects of many weight-correction drugs from Thailand also seem somewhat dubious. For example, how can one explain the occurrence of constipation if the drugs necessarily contain laxatives?

The interaction of Thai tablets with other drugs is also alarming. According to the instructions, they cannot be taken with antibiotics and antidepressants. But these drugs themselves can cause severe depression, affecting the human psyche. Refusing to normalize the mental state means dooming yourself to suffering with unpredictable consequences.

Despite the promised fast and stable results, many patients claim that after successfully completing the diet pills, they developed an uncontrollable appetite and their previous weight returned even with the supplement. But it is almost impossible to predict the result in this case, since the drugs are prescribed not by a doctor familiar with the characteristics of your body, but by you yourself.

The presence, along with positive, of many negative reviews of these drugs, the lack of reliable and complete information about the developers and organizations that produce Thai weight loss pills, the inconsistency of information about them in different sources cannot but alert a sensible person. But the choice is always yours.
