Irish TV3 interviews Dr. Patrick J. Treacy about the rising problems of anti-obesity drugs, which operate through one or more of the following mechanisms: * Suppression of the appetite. Epilepsy medications and catecholamines and their derivatives (such as amphetamine-based drugs) are the main tools used for this. Drugs blocking the cannabinoid receptors may be a future strategy for appetite suppression.[citation needed] * Increase of the body's metabolism.[citation needed] * Interference with the body's ability to absorb specific nutrients in food. For example, Orlistat (also known as Xenical and Allī) blocks fat breakdown and thereby prevents fat absorption. The OTC fiber supplements glucomannan and guar gum have been used for the purpose of inhibiting digestion and lowering caloric absorption. Anorectics (also known as anorexigenics) are primarily intended to suppress the appetite, but most of the drugs in this class also act as stimulants (dexedrine, e.g.), and patients have abused drugs "off label" to suppress appetite (e.g. digoxin). Diet pill scams now reach sales of $17 billion a year and growing consumer demand for fast cures keep this horrendeous industry alive. There is growing evidence that diet scams feed the bank accounts of some terrorist organisations, organized criminals and drug traffickers. #do diet pills work #quick keto gummies ingredients
