Are there any weight loss supplements that actually work?

Although there are various pills on the market for losing weight, most medications make absorption of dietary fat difficult, or they work by suppressing your appetite. Two popular weight loss pills are Belviq and Qsymia. The pills may lead to some weight loss, but they can have side effects too

Hi and welcome, tetrogen91 :)

I don't think you'll find many that would advocate the use of weight loss supplements for healthy and sustainable weight loss, that's down to correct nutrition. If you eat the wrong food, your satiety markers are distorted and it's not dietary fat that makes us fat, so weight loss by taking a drug to prevent it's absorption, is due to not being able to get off the toilet!

Welcome!

I look at this way tetrogen. If such a pill existed, I think the person that invented it would be wealthier than Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Bill Gates combined. As I can't see such a person then I'm inclined to say 'unlikely' at the very least.

As for popularity, that's the 'beauty' of marketing and social media.

Many people are here after spending many years looking for quick fixes and are now following paths of healthy living. It can seem slow but is in tune with how the body works.

Good luck :)
