Zotrim has been independently investigated in five studies.
In summary, the 223 subjects that took Zotrim lost an average of 0.7 kg (1.5 lb) per each 10‐day
period. In the key study 47 overweight subjects took either Zotrim tablet or a placebo (dummy tablet) for 45 days.
Those taking Zotrim lost an average of 5.1 kg whereas those taking placebo lost just
0.3 kg.
In a shorter, placebo‐controlled study with 44 overweight subjects, those taking Zotrim lost an
average of 0.8 kg versus 0.3 kg for placebo over 10 days.
In three further ‘open’ label studies average weight‐loss was:
- 2.3 kg over 28 days in 48 subjects wishing to loss weight
- 1.8 kg over 28 days in 56 overweight women
- 2.3 kg over 42 days in 73 overweight healthcare professionals
In the most recent study it was reported that over the relatively short period of 42 days that
22% of subjects achieved a clinically significant loss of weight, equal to 5% of original body
weight!
Weight Loss Management Data
A key success factor of any weight–loss regime is whether the weight loss is maintained or
whether the weight lost is rapidly regained (the “yo‐yo” effect’).
Zotrim has been shown to give lasting weight loss results:
23 subjects who had lost weight with Zotrim were studied for a further 12 months and
instructed to take Zotrim again if they gained more than 1 kg.
The group had almost the same average weight (72.5 kg) at the end of the 12 months as at the
start (73kg)!
This demonstrates the effectiveness of Zotrim in weight loss management!
Slimmer Waistline Data
A slimmer waistline is a key objective of most dieters, but it is also increasingly used as an
important indicator of risk of diseases such as heart disease with advice that men should have a
waist measurement of less that 37cm and women less than 32 cm.
Two of the ‘open’ label studies with Zotrim investigated ‘waistline loss’
4.3 cm average waistline loss was achieved in 56 overweight women in 28 days.
3.6 cm average waistline loss and 3.7 cm average hip measurement loss was
achieved in 73 healthcare professionals over 42 days.
Zotrim therefore helps users get into ‘great shape’.
Zotrim and Weight Loss
Weight loss and management of a lower weight is achieved simply by eating less calories and/or by “burning off” more calories usually by more exercise.
Zotrim has a dual mode of action, which addresses both sides of the ‘eat‐less calories’ and the ‘burnoff‐ more calories’ equation:
Eat less calories:
Zotrim helps you to:
- feel full sooner during a meal so that you tend to consume less at a meal
- feel satisfied after a meal so that you tend to snack less
Burn more calories:
Zotrim contains natural plant extracts from guarana and yerba mate, which are mild stimulants and invigorators having a caffeine‐like effect.
As a result, Zotrim:
- can help us to be generally more active
- ‘burn off’ more calories than we would otherwise do
Zotrim can therefore assist weight‐loss and weight management even without changes of food choice or activity levels!
However, you are recommended to eat healthily, watch calorie intake and to try to be more active. Even mild exercise such as walking an additional 15 ‐ 20 minutes per day can play an important contribution.
Zotrim can thus be used with any chosen diet regime, weight management programme or exercise programme to increase the chance of success.
How does Zotrim compare to other weight loss products?
A) To other food supplements:
Of many food supplement weight loss products on the UK market, only Zotrim provides scientific evidence via placebo‐controlled studies. In a recent review on the efficacy of active ingredients for over the counter, weight management products it was concluded: ‘the results showed little evidence for most weight loss claims, with the exception of a formulation containing Yerbe Mate, Guarana and Damiana’ (all contained in Zotrim).
B) To diet programmes:
The average rate of weight loss (kg per week) on Zotrim compares very favourably with that
reported in a randomised trial from various weight loss programmes tested for eight weeks:
Zotrim (45 day placebo control) 0.79
Zotrim (mean of all trials) 0.50
Slim Fast 0.46
Weight Watchers 0.59
Atkins diet 0.65
NB: Zotrim may be used with diet programmes to increase success.
C) To prescription drugs
A recent review reported the limited efficacy of prescription drugs for weight loss. Analysing trials of over one year duration, the average weight losses achieved over placebo were:
Xenical 2.9 kg
Sibutramine 4.2 kg
Rimonabant 4.7 kg
By comparison, Zotrim achieved a weight loss of 4.7 kg over placebo in 45 days! Additionally, most of the drug trials also included the need for calorie controlled diets whereas Zotrim does not!
