The Pink Patch™
Introduction & Overview
We often think that weight gain is something that happens as we get older, but these days, weight gain and obesity are on the rise across all age groups, including children. This is a troubling development that has spawned a variety of family-based clinics, exercise plans and diet systems. These kinds of adjuncts have reportedly worked quite well, especially when children are involved.
But many adults want and need more help when addressing weight gain, which is why we often look to the nutritional supplement aisles in our local store, which are teeming with weight loss products. Some developers of nutritional supplements have risen to the challenge lobbed at it by consumers, who what high-quality and effective products, by employing cutting-edge technology, while others fail to make the cut.
As its name suggests, The Pink Patch™ is a weight loss supplement that uses a patch-based technology similar to that used in birth control or nicotine patches. Some consumers gravitate toward this kind of technology because they believe it is faster and more effective than capsules. The Pink Patch™ is advertised as being target-specific, meaning that it claims to affect whatever area it is put on. However, there has been a fair amount of controversy around this product, which has made some consumers take a much closer look at it. Nevertheless, let’s take a more in-depth look at this technology and the elements used in this product to determine its effectiveness and safety.
Ingredients At A Glance
The Pink Patch™ contains Fucus Vesiculosus, 5-HTP, Yerba Mate, Flaxeed Oil, Guarana and Lecithin.
Ingredients in Focus
This product clearly uses a patch-based technology, but after carefully reviewing this technology and its application in the holistic arena, we were forced to come to the conclusion that it may not be an effective way to deliver herbal supplements. There’s a great amount of research showing that patch-based technology is effective when using pharmaceutical grade medications, but the same proof does not exist for holistic elements. This is because pharmaceutical drugs are altered so that they can easily pass through the skin; the same technology is not in play when it comes to herbal extracts. So, in essence, using patch-based products such as this one is a guessing game—perhaps some molecules will get through the dermis, but they may not.
Frankly, though, if the elements used in this formula actually made their way into users’ bodies, their abilities to enhance weight loss are quite low. Its primary ingredient is Fucus Vesiculosus, a kind of seaweed, and it contains a fair amount of Iodine. This developer, and many others, suggests that Iodine may augment thyroid function, which may be true if you have Iodine-related thyroid issues, but this condition is almost nonexistent in the western world. So, for most of us, Fucus Vesiculosus may do little to address weight loss.
5-HTP is also used in this formula, but it is most often found in holistic supplements that address sleeplessness or anxiety because it has an ability to induce relaxation. Some developers, such as this one, suggest it is a heavyweight appetite suppressant, but our research shows it has only mild abilities concerning hunger. In fact, there are a few well-crafted herbal extracts that blow 5-HTP away when it comes to quelling hunger.
For instance, Hoodia has been found to be extremely effective in cutting hunger and cravings because it works directly on the brain, where it convinces the hypothalamus that we are full even when we aren’t. In fact, in one clinical study, it helped cut 1000 calories from users’ daily caloric intake, even when they had full access to food. That said, Yerba Mate is included in this formula, and it may actually help increase metabolic function and fat burning ability, but it works best when used with high-end extracts such as Advantra Z®, the patented form of Bitter Orange, which is not used in this product.
Diet Lifestyle
The Pink Patch™ most likely did not make it into the $1000 program for a couple of fairly serious reasons. As we saw above, it lacks quality, and its delivery system is unproven. That said, it has also been banned for sale in California due to its extremely ineffective formula, and because of an unsavory marketing campaign that clearly targets young teenage girls, although this product is obviously just for adults. In fact, on its website, they indicate that this product is only for adults who are over 18. This product also received a large number of negative customer reviews. Only products that get the best customer reviews, use the most effective ingredients and have a reputation of solid customer care are included in this $1000 giveaway program.

Final Thoughts
The Pink Patch™’s advertising is extremely eye- and imagination-catching, and it has been very popular, but many dieters quickly learn that its formula is rather weak. This company failed to include well-tested and effective elements, such as Advantra Z® and Hoodia, and instead went with low performers like Fucus Vesiculosus and 5-HTP. Additionally, the technology used to deliver this formula may not be supported with clinical evidence, so there is no sure way to know if the formula actually makes it into the body.
Also, some dieters have reportedly experienced side effects, such as headache, heartburn and nausea, as well as general unease. Negative consumer reports, side effects and its lack luster formula were most likely the reasons that kept it out of the $1000 giveaway program. Only the safest and highest quality products were included in this prestigious giveaway program.
