Plasters
Slimming patches, presumably containing appetite-suppressing agents, have not been recognized neither safe nor effective. Annually patches of dubious origin and without quality certificates withdrawn from thousands of promoters and in the same amounts again thrown into the market.
Magnetic clips
Manufacturers of such a "miracle" swear that the action clips based on secrets of Chinese acupuncture and impact on specific points on the ear lobe can suppress hunger and enhance the production of hormones that accelerate fat burning.
In fact, there is no evidence of plausibility of this statement. Moreover, a few years ago, the Americans conducted a study which showed complete ineffectiveness of these clips in weight loss.
Not for nothing because in ancient China, only one in a million was rightly considered a professional in the field of acupuncture. Now manufacturers clips somehow believe that acupuncture everyone can do themselves. Uncontrolled and lasting impact on the earlobe can lead to problems with internal organs.
Laxatives and diuretics

Muscle electricity and miostimulyatory
Electrical stimulator - Is a device capable of conducting than the procedure itself "myostimulation" and other medical procedures, influencing the person pulses of electric current to produce a specific effect.
These devices, though justifiably used by physicians in physiotherapy, are absolutely useless for weight loss. They support a fortress of muscles, improve blood circulation, prevent stagnation in the body, but do not burn fat.
Do not even compare the work of muscles in the gym with this weak twitch. You also can not forget about the contraindications to myostimulation and complications from the procedure. When inept use of electrical stimulators can cause electric shock or severe burns.
Many doctors complain that the majority of patients who come to him at the reception, do not get sick suddenly, and cultivate and develop for a long time his illness through a variety of unacceptable from the point of view of doctors weight loss methods.
So before you invest time and money (and a lot!) In the wonder drug, stop and think: is it worth losing weight health. You do not get important figure mannequin for a week, and only a little to lose weight while maintaining health, what is more valuable than the petite.
