A very pregnant Kourtney Kardashian is having a hard time accepting her baby weight. Slim sis Kim says that “Kourtney is going crazy. She feels so big right now. She’s just ready to have the baby.” According to Us Weekly , sisters Kim and Khloe are both dieting with their QuickTrim diet products and expectant mom Kourtney is jealous because she sees how they’re both losing weight. I’ve got to admit that I’m sick of hearing about the Kardashians, and now they’re promoting this diet product and proving that it works. Ever wonder what it is exactly, or if it’s even healthy? My gut says it’s not, so I decided to check out the website to see what I could dig up. Here’s what I found: QuickTrim Fast Cleanse ($30) is a “lemonade flavored drink designed to help rid the body of excess water weight, belly bloating, and intestinal bulk.” So are you supposed to drink these magic citrus beverages all day and that’s it? To hear more about QuickTrim and what the ingredients are, read more. The Fast Cleanse drink I just described is one product made by QuickTrim. It contains many ingredients including pure lemon juice concentrate, chicory root (fiber), and aloe vera gel. Although it’s made with natural

ingredients, detoxing your body isn’t necessary . QuickTrim makes two other diet supplements, but these are in tablet form: Extreme Burn ($50) and Burn & Cleanse ($60). Extreme Burn claims to burn up to 8,000 extra calories per month. Burn & Cleanse is a 14-day diet system that promises to burn calories all day, and cleanse and detox you all night. They’re made with ingredients such as cocoa extract, acai fruit extract, hyssop, false unicorn root, and green tea leaf extract. Sounds like a witch’s potion to me. But at least you’re instructed to take these tablets between meals, not in place of them. These pills are supposed to stimulate your metabolism, maintain your blood sugar levels, burn fat and calories, and contain antioxidants to promote a happy mood. Safety-wise, QuickTrim products are not FDA-approved, so I’d skip them completely and save your moolah to buy things you know will help shed pounds, like a gym membership or fresh fruits and veggies. If you’re trying to lose weight, don’t fall for this quick-fix diet scam. As I’ve said before, the safest and most effective way to slim down is with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
