Re: I found a pill that works for me

I found an interesting article on this product.....thought I'd share....

Quote:
Flip through a magazine, peruse a newspaper, or surf the Internet and you see them everywhere: Ads that promise quick and easy weight loss without diet or exercise. Weight loss scams seem to pop up all the time, especially as the warm weather gets closer and we all have to face the dreaded task of putting on a bathing suit. It's a vision that can make even the most confident of people shudder in fear. With that in mind, diet scams continue to flourish, thanks in part to the law of supply and demand as a growing number of people find themselves overweight and looking for an easier way to lose it.
One of the newest "secret weight loss" products to hit the market proclaiming itself to be the "ultimate beauty slimming magic pill" is called Orovo. Orovo appears to be the exact same product that I recently wrote about called Leptovox. The only difference is the label has been conveniently changed with a new look and the product has been renamed. The mere fact that the product continues to be shuffled around with different identities every few months is highly disturbing to say the least. As stated previously in analyzing the "twin sister" Leptovox product, the persons responsible for creating Orovo yet again have not made any made explicit reference to any particular ingredient, or to the combination of ingredients that can actually cause this "total body magical transformation" to occur. There is absolutely no scientific validating evidence provided by the singular seller that hawks the product on ebay to support the many outrageous product claims that they make.
The Orovo product is advertised as a super weight loss product that claims to utilize "extracts" from “super foods” to address weight loss, reduce wrinkles, and alleviate acne. These 10 “super foods” were apparently featured on an episode of the Oprah Winfrey show featuring esteemed dermatologist Dr. Perricone. The problem is neither Dr. Perricome nor Oprah have anything to do with this Orovo product, and most certainly never approved their names to be misused by the persons selling it. The product contains some of the following ingredients: Brazilian Acai Fruit, Barley Juice Concentrate, Cayenne Pepper, Wheatgrass Extract, Garlic Extract, Buckwheat, FlaxSeed, Alfalfa Sprouts, Lactobacillus Acidophillus, SoyBean Extracts, Green Tea Extract and Salmon Oil Powder. Strangely, this product appears to be based solely on a slick sales message that the product is a healthy food copulation, yet it seems to include ingredients that may have potentially negative toxic effects on the body.
The bottomline on Orovo, dieters would be wise to remember that following a moderate, healthy diet is likely more sensible than relying on “magic super foods" especially when there is absolutely no scientific or clinical evidence that the product works. Remember, the best way to lose weight is to eat fewer calories and increase your physical activity so you burn more energy. Staying with a weight loss program can prove to be difficult for so many. That is why, when it comes to weight loss, choosing a product wisely, checking with your doctor first and adding an exercise program is the key to your success.
Orovo Reviewed - Miracle Diet Pill or Scam?



Oh and by the way, this is another marketing scam just like Redusyn.
