The website does admit that they\u2019re uncertain of how exactly these 2 ingredients work for weight loss, but it is intended to help people lose up to 4 times the weight than by just dieting and exercise. Lifestyle changes via eating fewer calories and exercising are required to use this drug, as it\u2019s intended to help one implement behavior changes.
