"When your child needs more then diet and exercise.

If you’re the parent or grandparent of one of the more than 11 million overweight or obese school-aged children in the United States, you know the pain and embarrassment this growing “Epidemic” can cause. But now, a revolutionary, all-natural weight-control compound offers new hope. It’s called PediaLean™: the first and only clinically proven, safe, and effective weight-control compound designed for children and adolescents… and it’s finally available in America exclusively from Klein-Becker USA"

It's a spoof off of a legitimate product.  I saw the commercial on TV yesterday and it used the same exact phrases.  Don't get so worked up

Edit:  I remember the name.  It's called Leptoprin

LOL.

No offence, you tool, did you read anything about Leptoprin.

Please, put Leptoprin in your favorite search engine.

Leptoprin, is being marketed as Anorex.  Cripes.


Curavl, Airhead, expected a little bit more.  Maybe I shouldn't have.

I'm sorry Thrawn, but you gotta admit that was funny.

I did as you suggested and looked it up...it is a real deal and it is frightening that this is being marketed at children.

Bascially you give the kids all the junk food they want and then give 'em a pill to stop 'em from getting fat.

Scary.

Also, at $78 a bottle only the fat rich kids can afford it.

We've evolved from taking pills for headaches to pills for our moods, pills for our acne and pills for our weight. Hell, we even have pills to help us have sex now. All this is is a continuation of people taking the easy way out.

Sorry, Thrawn, but I'm not fat so I can't relate to discussions about diet pills. I coulda offered more if you had mentioned Viagra instead of Anorex.

I'll just say this once.  Short and brief:

Get your fat, lazy, fried-chicken-supsersized-big-mac-no-exercising-6-full-meal-a-day bellybutton the f*ck off the couch.

Any questions?

I forsee a lot of fat people (who will become skinny thanks to these pills) still dying at the age of 35 because of clogged arteries, heart disease and anything these pills add to the mix.

Enjoy losing that weight! You still ain't gonna be healthy.

actually, if the pill is supposed to counteract genetic predisposition to obesity, then it should absolutely be prescription based only, and only after that genetic predisposition has been diagnosed by a specialist.

of course, that wouldn't make nearly as much money for the makers of the pill.

[myelo]

The reason it is not a “prescription-only” drug is because it is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. In other words, the manufacturer hasn't shown it to be safe and effective. It’s actually a concoction of 3 active ingredients: aspirin, caffeine, and ephedra (an appetite suppressant that has been associated with various adverse effects).

You can thank congress (mostly Orrin Hatch) and President Clinton for allowing these bogus dietary supplements to be sold. In 1994 they passed and signed, respectively, the Dietary Supplement and Health Education Act that severely limits the FDA's ability to regulate these products.
