Review of Slim Shots, an Appetite Controller
Including Possible Side Effects of Slim Shots
What are Slim Shots & how do they work?
Slim Shots - now that's a kicky name. And it's a fun concept - with fun packaging, the containers resembling those fun little coffee creamers. And who doesn't like cream? Fun, fun, fun.
Although Slim Shots claims to contain only natural ingredients, that's not quite the case as they contain artificial vanilla flavoring. Anything artificial is not natural. More on this later in this article.
So what are Slim Shots and how do they work to generate weight loss? Slim Shots contain an emulsion of palm oil, oat oil and water with added flavoring which supposedly work to delay hunger signals normally involving the hypothalamus - signals which naturally occur several hours after eating due to the ileal brake process. In simple terms, the ileal brake controls meal transit, much like traffic lights control traffic flow.
Other thoughts pop to mind regarding the method in which Slim Shots is intended to work. 1) In order for Slim Shots to be effective in generating weight loss, it must be taken hand-in-hand with a reduced calorie daily diet and exercise. Slim Shots touts that appetite may be suppressed up to eight hours. Eating less, equals weight loss - no shock and awe there. And Slim Shots supposedly can assist in cutting food consumption up to 30%. Let's move to point 2). A reduced calorie daily diet doesn't equal a diet filled will less food, rather a daily diet filled with less calories (energy). 3) For argument's sake, let's assume that an individual taking Slim Shots is unable to stick to a reduced calorie diet. What would be the results on the assumption that Slim Shots works as guaranteed? 4) The speed or rate of the gut is a piece of the metabolic puzzle, which is slowed due to the Slim Shots effect.
In conclusion we are left with more questions and pondering than when we began: a) Will naturally slowing the gut pose a risk for increased cholesterol? b) Will naturally/purposely slowing the gut pose increased risks for bowel and intestinal issues? c) For gas and bloating issues? d) Will naturally/purposely slowing the gut encourage constipation issues? d) What about the lingering impact of toxins remaining for longer periods than intended in the body which have been associated with increased risk for certain diseases such as cancer?
Let's take a look at the two chief ingredients in Slim Shots, oat oil and palm oil. Palm oil is so extreme in saturated fat that it is considered a solid fat. There is an old saying which pops to mind that connects the consumption of fat with a desire to eat less.
Oat oil is a powerful emollient and is often used for softening, hydrating, moisturizing and smoothing skin. Oat oil is rich in glycolipids and phospholipids (polar lipids), rich in antioxidants and rich in Vitamin E.
Slim Shots can be mixed with your favorite food or drink (it contains artificial vanilla flavor) or consumed alone and contains 20 calories per shot, the same amount of calories that are contained in two sticks of regular gum.
A one-month supply of Slim Shots will cost about $40.00 plus tax two months costs about $80.00 plus tax. Keep in mind that there are 30 Slim Shots in each box, so that only allows one per day. If an individual feels the need to continue to take two Slim Shots per day, the cost is therefore doubled.
Slim Shots contain no animal products thus are vegetarian and vegan friendly and contain only natural ingredients. As stated below, Slim Shots has not received FDA approval but to be fair - there is only one over the counter weight loss supplement on the market these days that has received such approval and the side effects are quite brutal and have the potential to prove embarrassing. That weight loss supplement is of course, Alli.
The first week, Slim Shots can be taken twice per day - at breakfast and lunch. Thereafter, one for breakfast. Slim Shots should not be taken in conjunction with Alli - which is a bit of a puzzle. And of course, if you are under a doctor's care, take medication for a certain condition, are pregnant or breast feeding, you should first consult with your doctor before taking Slim Shots.

Are Slim Shots Effective?
It's important to note that Slim Shots requires a healthy lifestyle which must be combined with the Slim Shots which includes a balanced diet and exercise. Therefore, the arising questions might include, " Do Slim Shots trigger weight loss or does a healthy diet combined with a healthy activity program?" OR, " Does the stalling of the gut (which supposedly in turn stalls appetite, which in turn is triggered by Slim Shots, which in turn triggers the decrease in appetite) trigger the weight loss?"
Supposedly, it takes 2-3 hours for Slim Shots to work on most people.
Diet Bites suggests that you perform your own Slim Shots Effectiveness test - if you decide to try Slim Shots for weight loss. The first week, embrace a reduced-calorie diet and moderate exercise - just as you plan to do when taking Slim Shots. Chart your weight loss progress. The following week, try Slim Shots and compare. Did the Slim Shots work to suppress appetite? Did you drop more pounds with or without Slim Shots? And if you would like to share your results with us, we'll be glad to share those at Diet Bites.

Ingredients in Slim Shots, Including Potential Side Effects of Slim Shots
It's important to note that Slim Shots has not received FDA approval. Slim Shots does not contain stimulants (including caffeine), therefore the side effects which often accompany many over the counter weight loss supplements such as the jitters do not appear to be an issue. They are not habit forming. And because Slim Shots states that it contains only natural ingredients, there should not be any side effects.
Take note however, that Slim Shots states that it contains only natural ingredients, which is a bit misleading as it contains artificial vanilla flavor.
NutraMist Energy Shots appear to be part of the Slim Shots weight loss supplements and contain the following ingredients: Vitamin B-12, green tea, aloe vera gel, ginseng, guarana, grape skin extract, apple concentrate, white grape concentrate, pineapple concentrate, purple grape extract, purified water, sucralose, natural flavor, sodium benzoate, and potassium sorbate.
As a note, Guarana Seed is rich in caffeine properties. Side effects include nervousness, insomnia, anxiety, headaches and blood pressure issues. Green tea has been used to treat all sorts of ailments - from stomach upset to obesity. Side effects may include diarrhea, constipation, tremors, irregular heartbeat, and insomnia. Ginseng may increase energy and reduce stress. Side effects may include: insomnia, nervousness and irritability.
The NutraMist Energy Shots is an oral energy spray which can be used throughout the day - not to exceed 24 shots per day. Supposedly, the spray gets into the body quicker than a pill.
