Key Ingredients

• The Apple Patch Diet supplement contains the following active ingredients: hoodia gordonii, yerba mate, vitamin B6, cha de bugre, guarana, green tea leaf extract and white willow bark. These ingredients are delivered in the form of a gum that must be chewed throughout the day so that the herbal ingredients can be swallowed in the saliva.

Effects

• Hoodia gordonii is a natural appetite suppressant that reduces cravings. Yerba mate and guarana are natural stimulants that increase energy and alertness, and may also reduce the appetite. White willow bark has chemical properties that are similar to aspirin and can help to alleviate aches and pains experienced from working out. Green tea leaf extract is an antioxidant that also serves as a fat burner because of its thermogenic properties. Both guarana and cha de bugre are natural appetite suppressants and stimulants. Vitamin B6 plays an important role in processing amino acids and converting protein into energy. Together, these ingredients work to make dieting easier. If the dieter eats less food for an extended period of time, she may be able to lose weight.

Considerations

• In addition to being sold as a weight loss product in the consumer market, the Apple Patch Diet program is designed to be a home-based business opportunity for anyone who wants to make a commission by selling the Apple Patch Diet independently. Business representatives are given a website that they advertise and promote to generate sales. These affiliates earn $25 for each order made through their websites, and must pay a $10 fee to join. Affiliates are also granted a $25 bonus when they first sign up. More information on the affiliate program may be found by visiting work-at-home-vault.com/Make-Money/Review/Apple-Patch-Diet.html.

Warnings

• The herbal ingredients in the Apple Patch Diet have not been approved as a weight loss mixture by the United States Food and Drug Administration. There have not been any formal clinical studies or research completed to support the claims that the supplement is an effective or safe weight loss aid, but this supplement is sold over the counter.
