Review
Summary |
Miaozi is a weight loss capsule that claims it will assist with permanent weight loss, through the use of a combination of Chinese herbs. This was all the general information we could find about this product. All the sites that sell it would not elaborate on Miaozi in any way other than saying if people take it they will lose weight. We do not know if it will increase metabolism or energy or if it has any other benefits.

| Ingredients At A Glance |
|
The main active ingredients in Miaozi are Semen Cassiae which may improve eyesight but may also cause some customers to have diarrhea. Redix Polygoni Multiflori should help to increase hair growth and strengthen bones. Gingko is commonly used in homeopathic medicine and is believed to be a source of antioxidants, but it is also rumored to have such negative side effects as nausea, blood hemorrhaging and vomiting.

| Cost |
|
We could not find a price for this product anywhere. Whenever we found websites selling this product it was of concern because a picture of the product would be shown but no price. We would then try adding it to our shopping basket and the checkout but still there no price would be provided. It seems that a consumer would first have buy Miaozi online with a credit card, and find out the cost after the fact. It was advertised to also be on EBay but when we checked there were no boxes of product available for purchase. The only thing we could find was dosage directions which indicated to take three capsules twice a day with hot water.

| Website In Focus |
|
It was very difficult to find information about this product which may be due to the fact that it is made in China. The market lately has become inundated with foreign herbs and ingredients used by the local peoples for hundreds of years. But despite that, there is little scientific evidence to support that these ingredients are actually beneficial. In this case, we were fortunate to find some secondary websites that offered information and gave a brief description of each of the ingredients, but there seems to be some very negative side effects associated with them.

| Final Thoughts |
|
This product is not recommended for a variety of reasons. We do not know enough about some of the ingredients that may be touted as effective in Chinese culture but have little scientific backing. We appreciate that companies make the effort to use natural herbal products and remedies instead of chemically created drugs, but we need to know a lot more about them before we can support their use; especially in this case, where two of the three key active ingredients seem to have as many negative effects as beneficial. There are many other herbal based products in the marketplace that are safe and have been proven effective – which contain ingredients we understand and see some clinical information about.
If you are seeking a weight loss supplement, be sure and choose a product with ingredients that address both aspects of successful dieting. A proven fat-burner is needed to address excess fat on the arms, belly, hips, thighs and buttocks, and a modern appetite suppressant is needed to control caloric intake and help curb cravings. Effective weight loss happens when both dieting needs are addressed. Add a healthy eating plan, and exercise – and you will have success.
