Diet Pill Scam

There’s a $60-per-month diet pill being advertised online, the ingredient label for which reads:

Active ingredient: 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine 100mg (pharmaceutical grade)

Those who aren’t organic chemistry hobbyists, please follow the link above for an explanation.

The best part is the one review website I found that’s full of statements from satisfied customers like “special weight loss compound”, “closest you can get to phentermine”, “the pounds keep coming off”, etc., etc.

I’d buy it myself, but I prefer my 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine in Hazelnut.
