Sold most commonly in the UK, Formula 2001 Slimming Pills is apparently the world’s most powerful and developed diet pill for real results.  And frankly speaking, we are impressed by their relative success in the UK. Why?  Because the cost of living is extremely high.

So to get people to spend extra money on something like a diet pill, especially when the rates of obesity are still relatively low in comparison to some others, is impressive.  However, does that mean it’s effective?  Not necessarily, it means they have really great advertising or at least good enough.

So is their formula all that it’s cracked up to be.  You can of course judge for yoruslef.  They start out with an ingredient called citrus aurantium.  Now the active component of this is synephrine, a cousin to ephedrine.  But they say that it is just as effective without actually causing the same side effects.

So that’s definitely a plus.  But of course, this is not exactly true with a product that doesn’t use the active ingredient.  Only a certain percentage of this is actually the active ingredient, and they don’t have a huge or considerable amount of this ingredient in general anyway.

From there, they have theobromine, which is a mix between the antioxidants found in chocolate as well as caffeine for fat burning effects.  Like we said, caffeine has been known to promote a fat burning effect, and accordingly, in the right amounts, theobromine could technically promote some weight loss results.  But as we have seen before, Formula 2001 doesn’t actually have the right amounts.

That is about where their weight loss ingredients end.  Yes, they have the slight results of naringin, the active component of the grapefruit.  But even in the right amounts, which they don’t have, naringin promotes a relatively weak effect in general terms when it comes to weight loss. So obviously, it’s not all it’s cracked up to be.

Outside of that, they have an amino acid blend.  Amino acids do feed muscles.  But they do not build muscles or promote weight loss for that matter.  Chromium picolinate had one successful study in athletes.  It has never been repeated, and on its own, it has never been proven in any other group at all.  So to us, this means that chromium on its own does not promote weight loss.

They use other vitamins and otherwise.  And they use black pepper to enhance the absorption of certain ingredients.  But realistically speaking, the reason why the Formula 2001 Slimming Pill is popular enough to stay alive is because of simple advertising.  It has absolutely nothing to do with weight loss results in general. So we would definitely recommend that you find something else that actually has a better and more legitimate application in general.
