CALLING ON NAFDAC TO BAN HYDROXYCUT

The dominant craze among people especially women to lose weight by other means than the time honoured principles of dieting and exercise, has produced a monstrous market for alternative approaches to weight loss. Now you simply have to eat all you want and then take some tablets and all your fat gets burnt and you retain that sexy shape that so allure the eyes of the beholder. But what we tend to forget that there is a heavy cost in wanting quick fixes to problems we have placed on ourselves by our own foolishness. All you have to is eating greedily, then swallow some pills and you are good as new. But what else have you traded on the ground of a miracle pill? Of course, many never take the time to find out what side effects are associated with what they swallow. Some of the top selling drugs include:   Lipovox, Ephedrasil, Hardcore Apidexin,  Myoffeine, Dieters Cheating Caps, Zalestrim, 7 Day Detox, SomnaSlim PM, Hydroxycut, and HoodiaGP57. All thse are what are selling like hot crust buns in the weight loss market, and 99% of those who purchase are women.

I recently heard that the weight loss drug called Hydroxycut is being sold in Nigeria, even at Shoprite. And what’s even more annoying is that it is sold at an exorbitant price. Meanwhile, here in the USA this drug has been recalled and the Food and Drug Administration is warning of how dangerous it is to the health of anyone who takes it. There have been several reports already of serious complications with the liver. Yet this killer of a drug is circulating freely in the Nigerian market. What is stated below is what I got of the FDA website regarding this drug:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Hydroxycut products by Iovate Health Sciences Inc., of Oakville, Ontario and distributed by Iovate Health Sciences USA Inc. of Blasdell, N.Y. Some Hydroxycut products are associated with a number of serious liver injuries. Iovate has agreed to recall Hydroxycut products from the market.

Hydroxycut products are dietary supplements that are marketed for weight loss, as fat burners, as energy-enhancers, as low carb diet aids, and for water loss under the Iovate and MuscleTech brand names.

FIVE THINGS TO DO TO THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN

Girl-Nigeria-FlagAfter accepting the romantic advances of this beautiful bride for the past thirty years of my life, and accepting the privileges she has granted me, I have found that my responses to her must of necessity follow certain steps. These steps are not sacrosanct, but are merely the products of the winding maze she has carved out of her history, and the unexplainable circumstances she currently exists in. While I cannot doubt her beauty and the alluring embellishments with which she remains seductive daily , I have come to see her inner filth and the unsacred ugliness of her inner influences and motivators. For these reasons, I have chosen certain parameters through which I will now relate with her, and I encourage you to do the same as well every time you think of her.

ONE: ESCAPE HER. Do everything possible within your power to slide away from her powerful grip. She has a deadly hold on anyone who courts her and her words are like the piercing darts of a Yagua’s   blowgun. Do not let her beauty deceive you, for it will only sap your energy and leave you useless to even your very dreams and aspirations. This is the first law, the law of escaping the corruption that lies within her grip. For every time she lays hold on you she demands that your continence be slaughtered on the altar of impudence and imprudence. So my friend continually laying with her keeps you in a perpetual trance, and all desire and predisposition to commonsense is in sudden flight from your windows of wisdom.

PLEASE VOTE FOR THIS GREAT IDEA

Last year I submitted an idea to the Google Project 10^100, an idea that was focused on giving more opportunities to African Students to access information and come at par with their colleagues elsewhere in the world.

I am glad today that one year after the reviews of over 154,000 ideas submitted, this idea was one of the top 16 chosen to be voted on. After the votes, the top five will be implemented.

What Google did was to refine the idea along with other similar ideas submitted by others. I am however glad that I was able to send in an idea that received attention and now is one of those to be voted on.

Please join me in voting for this laudable idea and let us together see that it becomes a reality. Click on the link below to vote directly.

Please place on your profile and send to your friends’ list as well, so we all vote for it.

Thanks
Reggie
