Weight loss in a bottle: Is it possible?

PHOTOS BY Claire Kowalick/Times Record News Harvest Drug pharmacist Ginger Pino displays a new shipment of green coffee bean extract supplements Friday at the store. Pino said raspberry ketones and the green coffee bean extract have been popular weight loss supplements.

A liquid protein supplement is seen at Sunshine Natural Food Store. Manager Ashley Morrison said the supplement has been popular lately.

Dr. Mehmet Oz frequently says, "Anything strong enough to help is strong enough to hurt you," but the promise of losing six sizes in one month is tempting to even the most jaded dieter.

With swimsuit season sitting heavily upon us, people looking to lose some pounds are clearing shelves of weight-loss "miracle" solutions.

Sunshine Natural Foods Manager Ashley Morrison said the store is ordering about 10 times as much liquid protein as they used to carry. She said the rush is probably in part because of radio and Internet advertisements for similar products.

The main ingredients in a product at Sunshine are collagen hydrolysate and casein hydrolysate, providing 15 grams of protein per serving.

Morrison said the recommended dose is 1 ounce each day before going to sleep at night. She said that the protein may help reduce appetite during the day and that it may help speed metabolism.

She said they have seen several customers, with one woman claiming to have lost six dress sizes. Morrison said the woman takes the protein at night, has cut down on sweets and does some light walking for exercise.

Harvest Drug and Gift pharmacist Ginger Pino said they struggle to keep products in stock after Dr. Mehmet Oz recommended supplements on his show.

She said they are seeing many customers looking for green coffee bean extract and raspberry ketones after Oz suggested them for weight loss on his television show.
