Frequently asked questions about Diet

Which products can you find in this category?

For example, you will find L-carnitine, fibre products such as glucomannan, green tea extracts, meal replacement shakes and combination products with caffeine or plant extracts. The composition is always shown in the ingredients list.

Do these products replace a healthy diet?

No. No food supplement replaces a balanced diet and exercise. The products are a supplement for anyone who would like to use them deliberately.

What do I need to know about products containing caffeine?

The amount of caffeine per serving is stated on the packaging. Products containing caffeine are not suitable for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or people with cardiovascular disease or high blood pressure. If you have trouble sleeping, do not take them in the late afternoon or evening.

What applies to fibre such as glucomannan?

Follow the recommended intake on the packaging and drink plenty of water with it. If you have difficulty swallowing or a gastrointestinal condition, please speak to your doctor beforehand.

Are there interactions with medication?

That is possible. If you take medication, please discuss taking these products beforehand with your doctor or pharmacist.

Note: Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. The stated recommended daily intake must not be exceeded. Keep out of the reach of young children.
