The Pink Patch is one of the latest diet fads to hit the market. Targeted towards teenagers and young women, the Pink Patch borrows from the popularity and effectiveness of smoking cessation and birth control patches and uses it as the next big idea in weight loss. The patch, which includes a variety of supplements, is slapped on the skin once a day. The ingredients in the Pink Patch are absorbed into the skin and are time released throughout the day. It is intended to help you lose those last five pesky pounds. It's not intended to be used as a long-term diet. You can expect to lose about 1 - 3 pounds per week with immediate results of reduced hunger showing up after about two days of wearing the patch.



The Pink Patch is produced by Curb Your Cravings, the company first responsible for the introduction of the Hoodia Patch.

The Pink Patch is to be applied to your skin in the morning and left on throughout the entire day. You are encouraged to drink a lot of water, avoid alcohol and limit caffeine to only one cup per day while you are wearing the Pink Patch, since it contains Yerba Mate, which acts as a stimulant.

The magic ingredient contained in the Pink Patch is a type of seaweed called Fucus Vesiculosus. This particular kind of seaweed has been used in some cultures for more than a hundred years to reduce weight and increase energy and metabolism. One study showed that women who regularly consume this seaweed have lower rates of breast and ovarian cancer compared to women who don't consume it. A big win for women's health. The Pink Patch also contains Yerba Mate, which is a South American energy-booster, and lecithin, which is an emulsifier. Lecithin that is soy-derived helps to lower cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing the HDL cholesterol or the "good" cholesterol. The patch also contains flax seed oil, which is a source of essential fatty acids.

While taking the Pink Patch, you are supposed to eat a healthy and balanced diet and maintain a consistent exercise program as these two factors are intended to support the weight loss effects of the product.

A one-month supply of the Pink Patch costs $49.95. There is also a one-week free trial offer as well which is available through the product's website. Read the terms carefully as these often have auto-shipment and billing programs attached.

Also, it is a dietary supplement that has not been approved or evaluated by the FDA, therefore its effectiveness and safety cannot be validated. Moreover, since this product is targeted specifically to young women, it promotes the pressure for women to be skinny by doing whatever they can to achieve their perfect body even if that means taking a product that is unregulated and potentially harmful. Girls are highly encouraged to consult with a medical doctor before taking it.
