Why does it say it is not to be used for weight reduction?

It's just protein supplement not a meal replacement. Provides additional nutrients to your diet.

I actually use it with banana, nuts, fruits or whatever I want to put in there as a meal replacement. so I think it can be used to help with weight reduction.

No it shouldn't be used alone, this is a supplement. It's used to make up the difference in what you don't get from food, like vitamins. You should lose 1 to 2 pounds a week that is healthy. Grab a book by a nutritionalist, or M.D. and then plan a diet. Or better yet go see a nutritionalist.

No I don't believe it helped me lose weight but it did make me feel a lot better. It gave me more energy, a better overall feeling, and keeping my system clean. So I guess with continued use, it may help you lose weight because of a higher metabolism, more energy, and overall feeling. This can help you to do the things that you miss out on, and doing those things may help you to lose weight. I hope this helps.

The product is not intended for weight loss as far as I know. I was advised by a nutritionist at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital (NYC) that you should not eat a meal and then drink down a container of Orgain. It is indeed intended as a meal replacement product. Also of interest for the Orgain products is that all of the flavors tend to form lumps sometimes. Shaking the stuff very vigorously (the packaging says shake well) does help dissolve the lumps.

I don't know, you would have to ask the manufacturer. I started using it when I was 215lbs, now I'm at 180lbs. No problems.

Please ask your doctor. I am not qualified to give medical advice. I know what I used it for...but that's all I know about it.

This is a light belt designed to help hold minor hernias in place. It is not intended to help prevent them. I would not recommend using this belt for any exercise program.

It does not help you lose weight. It helps give you a boost of vitamins if you are feeling sluggish!

Hello: Not everything works for all people the same. It didn't seem to work for me but that could be due to other factors. I wasn't looking for a quick fix to my weight problem but I was looking for a quick start and didn't get it. There are warnings popping up about the main ingredient and I would advise researching that before spending any money. Sorry, Dick Urban

I don't think it's a problem if man uses it but for losing weight? I doubt it's a good product. For the high price and what you might expect this product I won't recommend at all. Sorry to tell the truth but I hope it may help you to think, if you want to purchase or not.

Not that I know of, it is not for that. It is for thinning hair and helps to maintain and grow new hair.

You can but that's not what will help to burn fat. You exercise with it on to help increase you perspire.

Yes, you can use it for weight loss. I have had lapband surgery and doctor has me on 800-900 calorie diet to lose remainder of weight. Because stomach is so much smaller, I am unable to eat enough actual food to maintain muscle tone until I get to maintenance weight. He has prescribed approx. 80 grams of protein daily. I use this and add vegetables and fruit to make it a thicker smoothie. It is then very filling and helps me keep to my prescribed caloric intake. I use it as both a meal (usually breakfast) and sometimes again before bed if I haven't met the daily protein requirements eating other foods. It helps me from snacking on "no-no" foods. It's also very good for muscle recovery after exercising. Yes, you can use it for weight loss. I have had lapband surgery and doctor has me on 800-900 calorie diet to lose remainder of weight.

I'm not sure. I believe it is recommended to not excessively exercise...but you will need to contact the company for more information.

I don't know. I don't know why it's being used either. I'd prefer if it wasn't used. I don't know if it should be a health concern.

They don't post it anywhere but once you buy it and receive it, the pamphlet reads at the very bottom that the weight limit is 220 pounds. If you choose to use it and you weigh more than that, you are risking it. If anything happens you can't blame them because you used it not in accordance with their rules. I do not know why they do not post the weight limit on this page. That's an important piece of information. 220 pounds is not much for overweight people trying to lose weight. I tried it for a few minutes anyway, and if you have any knee issues this will make them worse. It will burn more than walking, but you are risking injury in more than one way.
