Myth 1
With fat burners, you can eat anything you want and don’t gain weight.
Truth:
It is advised that a fat burner be taken in combination with regular exercise & a balanced diet in order to achieve a healthy weight loss. The amount of calories you put into your body and the amount of energy you use up on your activities will determine your body weight. Simply remember that when you take more calories than you need to perform your day's activities, your body stores the extra calories or fat and you gain weight. On the other hand, you lose weight if your body burns more of your stored calories or when you take less calories than you use. Thus, many use helping aids like fat burners to help them through times when their willpower is tested. Besides, some weight loss results also serve as encouragement to those who need the extra help.

Myth 2
Ignore the calories, take a ‘fat burner’ food to lose weight. It’s as good as weight loss drugs without the side effects.
Truth:
Claims about asparagus, beets, cabbage, carrots, celery, garlic, horseradish, lettuce, onions, etc. as ‘fat burner’ foods that burn more calories than they supply when digested are untrue. All foods containing carbohydrates & protein can increase the rate at which your body burns calories in a simple act of digesting & absorbing the food. However, the rate of increase is too small to help reduce one’s weight. |

Myth 3
Turn fat into muscle with a fat burner. |
Truth:
Fat cells and muscles are two different kinds of tissues. Fat cells cannot be converted directly into muscles. You can lose fat with a fat burner and a healthy lifestyle, then gain muscles through regular exercise and intense strength training to build up these muscles. |
