Quick weight loss is questionable

I think it really is possible to lose a lot of weight in a short time -- if you want to keep the way off for just a few days, that is. That's because these magical products advertised everywhere do not tend to be good options for long-term weight loss. (All the lost weight is likely to be water and muscle weight, which inevitably come back after a few days anyway.)

Accelis claims to be a Caffeine-free fat-burning formula for losing "10.65 pounds fast!" I'm not sure where the company came up with this figure, but it is not likely to be based on concrete evidence and clinical studies. Ingredients like Green Tea, Oolong Tea, Chamomile Extract, White Tea and Passionflower make up the formula. But while these may be Caffeine-free versions, I don't see any promising fat burner or an appetite suppressant like Hoodia.
