Momentum 2 Day Slim Down Review
What You Should Know
The Momentum 2 Day Slim Down is a liquid weight loss product that offers a 4.5% reduction in body weight in just 48 hours. For a 200 pound person, that equals 9 pounds. For a person weighing 400 pounds that equals 18 pounds. Losing that type of weight in just 48 hours is unsafe and not medically sound.
There is what looks like an official website for the Momentum 2 Day Slim Down. The website is owned by Souzao Enterprises. The product sells for $39.95.
List of Ingredients
Vitamin C, Vitmain B6, Vitmain B12, Vitamin B3, Chromium, Aloe Vera Gel, Garcinia Cambogia, Ginseng Tea, Burdock Root Tea, Licorice Root Tea, Fennel Seed Tea, Suma Tea, Pau dÃArco Tea, Gingko Biloba Tea, Peppermint Tea, Mint Tea, Purified Water, Crystalline Fructose, Natural Flavor, Potassium Gluconate, Stevia, Zinc Gluconate, Citric Acid, Xanthan Gum, Carmel, Potassium Sorbate and Sodium Benzoate.
Product Features
On the website where the ingredients are listed, there is a warning not to consume any caffeine while taking this product. This could be due to the huge amount of caffeine the list of tea must have. All of the main ingredients in the Proprietary Blend are teas of some sort. This is the first product that has listed tea as the primary ingredient and not contained green tea.
The tea ingredients, however, shine light onto how the Momentum 2 Day Slim Down really works. The caffeine is a diuretic. Burdock is a diuretic. Licorice is a supplement that should never be taken with a diuretic as it can cause life threateningly lower potassium levels.
The Momentum 2 Day Slim Down is a liquid fast. The program advises the user to drink 4 glasses of the Momentum drink four times a day mixed with four additional ounces of water. This makes the days consumption add up to 32 ounces of fluid. The second day the same is repeated. The weight lost on this plan is not real weight. It is the water that is stored in the body. The scale will read lower, but as soon as the user drinks a glass of fluid, they will literally hold on to all of that fluid and regain the weight right back.

Disadvantages

Conclusion
We often like to stay as neutral as possible when reviewing weight loss supplements, but when a product contains ingredients that are contraindicated for the health and well being of the person taking the supplement, a voice needs to be raised. The Momentum 2 Day Slim Down is not a safe product to use for weight loss. This product contains caffeine and diuretics aimed at puling all of the water from the body. There is no real weight loss.
