			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/bashanut.jpg" alt="bashanut" title="bashanut" width="96" height="150" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1783" />Basha Nut is a diet pill that claims you will &#8220;Start losing 1-2 kg each day as soon as you start taking Basha slimming capsules&#8221; (website). There is no proof to show Basha Nut will do anything for weight loss. In addition, the marketing and website for this product are atrocious. They even publish hundreds of bad reviews about the product on their own website! This Basha Nut review will reveal all the pathetic sides to Basha Nut to (hopefully) keep you from buying it.</p>
<h3>Basha Nut Ingredients</h3>
<p>Basha Nut contains the following ingredients:<br />
<strong>Basha Fruit extract<br />
Lotus Leaf extract<br />
Cassia Seed</strong><br />
<br />
None of these ingredients has been proven to cause weight loss in humans. If you want to lose weight, go with a diet pill that contains clinically proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.</p>
<h3>Basha Nut Free Trial</h3>
<p>The Basha Nut website touts a free trial (actually it says &#8220;free trail&#8221;). They give a 5 minute countdown, making you think you only have 5 minutes to cash in on the trial. However, if you refresh the page the countdown starts over.<br />
<br />
The website hides the details of the trial in the fine print. Here is the scoop: you have 15 days to cancel your free trial. If you do not cancel within the 15 days you are enrolled in autoship (meaning they automatically ship you more Basha Nut diet pills every month and charge your credit card) and charged $79.95 per month. This is WAY too much money for a diet pill that has no science behind it.</p>
<h3>Basha Nut Marketing</h3>
<p>The Basha Nut website has several before and after photos of people who have supposedly lost weight using Basha Nut. However, the heads are either cropped out of the photos or the faces are blacked out.<br />
<br />
There is no way to tell if it is even the same person in the before and after photos.<br />
<br />
Much of the Basha Nut website is dedicated to convincing prospective customers they should distribute Basha Nut (to earn money). If you get your friends to sign up you get 2 free boxes of Basha Nut.<br />
<br />
The Basha Nut website claims, &#8220;As of December 18, a total of 8500 customers shared their experiences of Loss weight.&#8221; The interesting thing is that when you look through the posts from customers, nearly all are negative reports about Basha Nut. What company litters their website with degrading comments? It just makes no business sense.<br />
<br />
The Basha Nut website also seems to have been made by someone who does not speak English. There are dozens of blatant spelling and grammatical errors on the website.</p>
<h3>Basha Nut Customer Service</h3>
<p>I attempted to contact the Basha Nut customer service department. The website lists no customer service phone number, only an email address. I sent an email with questions about ingredients, but several days later they still have not replied.</p>
<h3>Basha Nut Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Basha Nut review finds Basha Nut diet pills are not worth your time or money. There is no scientific evidence to show Basha Nut will actually cause weight loss. It is far too expensive. The website is pathetic and there is no customer service. Do not bother with this product.</p>

<p>SlimForte is a diet pill that supposedly &#8220;works right away to suppress your appetite, speeds up metabolism and melt away your excess body fat&#8221; (website). This SlimForte review reveals the truth behind SlimForte, detailing the ingredients contained as well as the price and marketing strategies of SlimForte.</p>
<p>
<h3>SlimForte Ingredients</h3>
</p>
<p>The following is the ingredient list for SlimForte diet pills, according to the SlimForte website.</p>
<p>5-HT (we assume they mean 5-HTP) 5-HTP is a mood enhancer included in many diet pills. Research has shown 5-HTP does not contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Daidaihua supposedly increases metabolism and decreases hunger; however, research fails to back up these claims.</p>
<p>Cassia seed has not been shown to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Coicis seed does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Mulberry leaf does not promote weight loss.</p>
<p>Glucomannan is a dietary fiber that has been proven to contribute to weight loss. However, in order for glucomannan to be effective, it has to be taken in doses of 2-4 grams per day. This SlimForte review finds it is EXTREMELY unlikely that SlimForte diet pills contain enough glucomannan to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>You will note the only ingredient in SlimForte that has been proven to cause weight loss is glucomannan, and it is unlikely that it is included in a high enough amount to actually cause weight loss. This SlimForte review finds there is NO reason to believe SlimForte will cause weight loss.</p>
<p>
<h3>SlimForte Cost&#038;lt</h3>
</p>
<p>SlimForte diet pills cost $65 per month. This is WAY too expensive for SlimForte. There is NO reason to believe SlimForte will actually cause weight loss. If you want to lose weight, use a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.</p>
<p>
<h3>SlimForte Guarantee</h3>
</p>
<p>SlimForte has a 30 day guarantee. They claim it is a full money back guarantee, but they do not give specifics on the guarantee. We prefer at least 60 days to return a product. You can be sure if you use SlimForte you will need to use the guarantee; it will not give you the promised results.</p>
<p>
<h3>SlimForte Marketing</h3>
</p>
<p>The SlimForte website contains pathetic before and after pictures as well as unbelievable testimonials. It is obvious that the pictures have been doctored to make them look better. You will not have results like those pictured by using SlimForte diet pills.</p>
<p>The SlimForte website also contains nearly pornographic images that have nothing to do with SlimForte diet pills. It is distasteful and unnecessary and only makes SlimForte look even worse.</p>
<p>
<h3>SlimForte Conclusion</h3>
</p>
<p>This SlimForte review finds SlimForte is just another diet pill out to get your money. There is no scientific evidence to show SlimForte actually causes weight loss. Look through our recommended products; they included proven ingredients in proven amounts.</p>
