Alvidar Review

What You Should Know

Alvidar is marketed as a dietary supplement that will help to get your under-active thyroid gland up and running again. This will give you back the fast-acting, fat burning metabolism that you had when you were younger, instead of the slow and sluggish food-processing system that you have now. A slow metabolism will allow the pounds to keep packing themselves on to your body in non-appealing places like your waist and hips. Alvidar is produced and manufactured by Selmedica Healthcare which is a company that claims to have well over 50 years experience in natural health care. They also sell several other health-related products in addition to Alvidar.

Selmedica Healthcare says that they believe many people are the victim of under-active thyroid glands (hypothyroidism) and that is why people are getting fatter and fatter over the course of their lives. By taking Alvidar, people will increase the activity of their thyroid gland and this will in turn cause them to be more active and burn more fat. Simply put, Alvidar claims that it will cause weight loss in those who have had a hard time losing weight.

List of Ingredients

Not all ingredients seem to be listed anywhere but we know that Alvidar does contain the following:

Laminariae Stipites(Kelp),Fucus Vesiculosus(Bladderwack)
Serenoa Repens(Saw Palmetto),Gentianae Radix(Yellow Gentian),Capsicum Frutescens(Cayenne Pepper),Echinacea Purpurea(Echinacea),Ananas Comosus(Pineapple),Ginkgo Biloba(Ginkgo),Panax Ginseng(Ginseng),Ilex Paraguariensis(Yerba Mate),Filipendula Ulmaria(Queen of the Meadow/Meadowsweet),Hypericum Perforatum(St. John’s Wort),Valeriana Officinalis(Valerian.)

Product Features

Alvidar contains kelp and bladderwack, which are both great sources of iodine and are found naturally in the ocean. Studies show that iodine might stimulate the thyroid gland but the actual benefits, if any, are unknown. Alvidar does contain many healthy ingredients such as ginko, ginseng, and echinacea. Ginko and ginseng are supposed to help harmonize and energize the body and mind while echinacea is a popular ingredient in many products that increase immune system functionanilty.

Advantages

  • Contains many healthy ingredients.
  • Ingredients seem to be all natural.

Disadvantages

  • Expensive (90 tablets or 30 day supply is $65.)
  • Website seems to have vanished.
  • None of Alvidar’s positive thyroid effects are supported by clinical evidence.
  • Selmedica has a shady track record at best, according to online testimonials.

Conclusion

Alvidar doesn’t seem legitimate enough to warrant saying many positive things about it. The all-natural ingredients are nice but there isn’t a complete list that we could find. This may be dangerous for those with allergies. Iodine is added to normal table salt so not many people in developed countries are lacking in that department.

The premise thyroid-stimulating premise behind Alvidar might sound intriguing to those that have all the symptoms of an under-active thyroid gland. The problem is, you shouldn’t be diagnosing yourself for something like this. Talk to your doctor if you truly think you have any type of thyroid issues. As far as weight loss supplements go, we’ve found that there are others out there that come with fewer question marks than Alvidar.

**Our Top Weight Loss Choice**

Top Choice for 2009: Avesil

Avesil is clearly the most promising weight control formula we know of on the market. After looking at hundreds of different purported weight loss supplements, Avesil was the most rigorously researched one that we could find. The foundation behind the Avesil formula was an original scientific research study that incorporated an incredible 284 previously published peer-reviewed clinical studies, many conducted in university research labs. All of the product claims made about Avesil are substantiated by this large volume of research.

Unlike many fad weight loss ingredients (hoodia, acai berry, etc.) which are at best supported by folklore and at worst by pop culture, Avesil is totally rooted in disciplined scientific study. In fact, two research trials conducted on human subjects, later published in highly respected scientific journals, concluded that the primary ingredients in Avesil resulted in an average weight loss of more than 3 times that of a healthy diet and exercise alone.

Customers will notice that the claims made about Avesil are quite reasonable and not the least far-fetched. Simply put, Avesil is a safe, healthy way to promote a significant increase in weight loss when taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. In today's market there is a shamefully high number of consumers who have been deceived by outrageous "no work" promises, manufactured customer testimonials and bogus before/after pictures used by so many marketers of weight loss supplements. Avesil promises to deliver healthy, reasonable, and significant weight loss benefits - all offered through the process of a risk-free trial, leaving customers with very little to lose (other than weight).
