Posted on Tue, 1 Sep 2015
Question: I am type 2 diabetic, have had breast cancer and suffer with blood clots, taking warfarin to combat the clotting. I weigh close to 350 pounds and am 72 years old. My question: is it too late for me to try molecuslim diet pills? Also, with my health problems, is it safe to take? I am desperately looking for a solution. I have been on MANY diets; I lose weight;gain it back plus more. Can you help me with my questions?

Brief Answer:
In my opinion these pills are not advisable in your case.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I understand your concern.

I have extensively researched the Molecuslim. I could not find any research on benefits on weight loss. The ingredients in these pills have not been clearly defined. If you can mention the ingredients I will be better able to help.

In my experience, diet pills do not offer gross improvement in weight loss with initial weight of 350 pounds.

Diabetes can also interrupt with mechanism of action of such pills.

The interaction of these pills with warfarin and blood clots are not known as yet.

In my view, I do not find evidence ,that these pills offer benefit in your case.

Hence in view of limited clinical data, I do not advise these pills in your case.

Consultation with a Diabetologist will offer expert opinion.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
