The controversy of CortiSlim has been heavily debated in recent years. Recently, the slap of the FTC’s hand has proven detrimental for the makers of CortiSlim. In late 2004, the FTC cracked down on CortiSlim’s false claims of causing weight loss in excess of 10-50 pounds, concentrated weight loss in the thigh/abdomen areas, and being proven over 15 years of research. Red flag?

CortiSlim is based on the premise that when the body is stressed it increases its production of cortisol, which supposedly causes your body to store excessive amounts of fat.  But this only happens when you have an underlying medical condition, such as Cushing ’s syndrome or problems with prescription medication. There is absolutely no evidence that the amount of cortisol produce in an average healthy person leads to significant weight gain. Therefore, blocking the production of cortisol-the main function of CortiSlim-will not lead to significant weight loss.

Ingredients:

Since the premise is not valid, I will not go into too much detail about the ingredients. It does contain Green Tea Leaf extract and Banaba Leaf extract which help burn body fat and control insulin levels, respectively.  It may help you lose a little weight, but not enough to make it worth your time and money.

Conclusion:

Do we really need a conclusion? The track record of CortiSlim speaks for itself: trouble with the feds and too many false claims. If for some strange reason you want to give it a try, you can find new bottles on eBay from unsatisfied customers for $10-$15. Otherwise, try one of the best diet pills reviewed below.
