Energy and Weight Loss Supplements: A Confusing Weight Loss World!
Searching through weight loss supplements and methods of increasing energy and metabolism is very confusing.
In the energy and weight loss supplements world many manufacturers use common misleading terms to confuse the would-be consumer. Such common terms used today include patented, scientifically formulated, and proprietary blend. However, we will focus on the proprietary blend for today.
What is the “proprietary blend†seen in many weight loss supplements? In many cases this term can be very misleading to many hopeful buyers. The term proprietary blend is very confusing to the buyer. Why? When this term is listed on the side of a bottle, there are two reasons for doing this.
This prevents the competition from knowing what ratios and amounts of each ingredient are present in the formula. This prevents the competition from copying their formula. This is commonly referred to as a knock off.
Secondly, the manufacturers use this to hide the fact the formula contains very little of the active ingredients listed on the bottle. This is an attempt to fool consumers. This is more commonly referred to as a ‘label decoration’ by industry insiders. There really is no great way to tell if the ‘proprietary blend’ used in many weight loss supplements is better than others with the same label. This is because the ingredients and amounts are not known.
Be on the watch when you surf through your energy and weight loss supplements options. You can be successful with weight loss and you can do it without misleading weight loss products.
