I have heard that they aren't very good for you, why doesnt she just go for a healthier diet/more exercise because she'll put the weight she looses back on the minute she stops taking them. (I guess thats how people become addicted to them)

Aye, I'll just get her a gym membership instead, cheaper an all probably.

The herbal ones tend to be a load of rubbish. The only vaguly useful thing in them is caffeine, speeds up mtabolism.

There are medical ones which stop absorption of fat from food, and appetite suppressants and so on, but you don't want to go down that route.

Apparently they are really bad for you and mess up your metabolism... although they might seem tempting i think exercise is a better option for losing weight.
