UAE public warned against 'Superslim'

UAE medical authorities have banned the Chinese-made Superslim weight-reduction drug from the local market and warned the public against using this product as it could cause hearth problems.

The ministry of health repeated a warning it issued early this year that Superslim is not a 100 per cent natural product as it contains ingredients that are no longer used in drug manufacturing and could result in serious heart complications.

“This medicine is not allowed in the UAE any more as our tests showed it contains dangerous ingredients,” the ministry said in a new circular published by the Dubai-based Arabic language daily Emirat Alyoum.

It said one ingredient is sibutramine, which has been withdrawn from most markets worldwide to risks of serious cardiovascular problems.

The US has already banned Superslim, which manufacturers claim it contains only natural products such as pomegranate, apple, kiwi, hoodia and koning nut. Supposedly, these ingredients will result in increased fat burning and a reduced appetite without any side effects.

But US medical tests have shown that Superslim pills https://www.healthyweightlosspills.com/ contain a lot of non-natural ingredients that can be very dangerous to a person's health.

Many people have experienced a wide variety of symptoms when taking these pills, from nausea to pains to serious heart problems.

The UAE ministry of health renewed its warning against this product as it is still being sold online, including the UK’s Ebay and other websites.
