Simply Slim tested and found to contain SIBUTRAMINE
I need to correct this as even although simply slim states on there website it contains Synephrine (which it could) but that is not the main culprit for all the side effect that i have experiences – simply slim contains reductil which is bad news
From there website

hi, i have not tried ss – from what i read,it sounds very bad. i want to loose +- 30kg.what do you recommend?

I am so dissapointed that Simply slim was taken off the market, and i am very glad to advise that yes there were
some side affects, but not bad enough to make me stop taking these tablets. These are the only tablets that have
helped me lose weight, and control my appetite. I lost quite a lot of weight, but not having reached my goal weight , as have been unable to buy Simply slim, thanks to some people obviously in competition to these diet tables that honestly work. I have tried everthing else on the market with not even a little bit of success. Tell me who
is being dishonest here,? selling something that works or does not work.Losing my weight is a life changing experience, so I would happily carry on taking these diet pills. Fan of Simply Slim
Here is a question. On the Simply Slim website under the ingredients list, it no longer shows that it contains sibutramine. My understanding is that this is the ingredient that actually caused people to loose so much weight. How can they now advertise the saim products (without sibutramine) and still sell it for the same price, cause I am made to believe that it was the sibutramine that made the product expensive. Am i getting this right? Maybe this is why people are now saying that the product does not work the same and that they are not loosing the weight….. Was just wondering, never used it myself, but was very close this week in purchasing it, luckily I came across this website and read all the complaints and side effects.
This is for Sheila. Why not just get your fat ass off to the gym after having a baby. It sounds like you are into everything unhealthy, putting on 20kg during your pregnancy is not on. I don’t think that anything seen on Carte Blanch has been BS – where there is smoke there is fire. Yes, maybe SS worked wonders for you. You may not have any underlying health issues (besides just being a fat ass). It is like playing Russian Roulette.
Another thing Johsn is clearly Afrikaans writing in English – could you try relying in a perfect Afrikaans?
That Lance dude looks and sounds like a real droll. Why won’t he admit that there was sibutramine in the SS, what a 8%^$$
@Lance, and other readers.
Some points:
1. If a product is sold to 100 people, and causes severe symptoms in 20-50% (for example), the product becomes a risk to ALL – for one cannot easily identify who will react to it or not.
2. Synephrine Levels Bitter Orange Materials
Material mg % (mg/100 g)
Fresh fruit 270 mg 0.020
Dried fruit 380 0.352
Dried extract 3000 3.003 – 3.079
Products 250-2500 0.250 – 0.989
Source: Pellati et al. 2002
So you can see, it may be low in the fresh product, but the fresh product is never used – a concentrate is used which gives high levels in capsules. It is NOT found in pineapple juice, but may be in the citrus variety “orange-pineapple”.
3. Although diet pill manufacturers claim that bitter orange can cause weight loss, there is NO robust proof that this is in fact true. Some evidence shows that it burns fat in rats/mice, but NOT in humans.
4. It does have effects on the heart and blood pressure, which are dose related, and which may explain why some people are more effected than others (depends on your weight)
5. The Simply Slim supplied to the MCC by Simply Slim may have tested negative, but samples purchased from distributors tested POSITIVE (SABS – I have a copy of the document). And considering that the distributors receive their stock ONLY from Simply Slim HQ … read between the lines.
6. If Simply Slim was innocent as claimed, they would take the MCC to court and win – they will not – for they do not have a winnable case.
7. Contrary to their advert, they are NOT registered with the MCC – all they had was a receipt number which simply confirms that the MCC accepted their documents, but no registration had taken place.
Good day2 of my friends have lost a considerable amount of weight on simply slim with no side effects. So needless to say I wanted to start immediately, however that same morning I bought the pills the news paper came out with the article on simply slim. I then decided to do some research first and came across the following post on hellopeter:SUPPLIER Simply Slim 100% … INDUSTRY MedicalBRANCH/AREA sandton COUNTRY South AfricaTIME / DATE 15:59 Sat 13 Feb PERSON RESPONSIBLECUSTOMER hbolon View all reports by user 10HEADLINE Comparing Simply Slim products -FAKE OR REAL !THE INCIDENTSat 13 FebI bought my first box at a salon. For the first 3 days i felt a little hot and thirsty but thereafter my body got used to it . I lost 3kg an 14 days and my hasbend 5kg in 14 days. As we shared the box we needed another dose . I went to a pharmacy this time and to my surprise the capsules had no effect on me or my husband. I cound not understand the change in the product . I bought another box from the beauty salon and compaired the content in the capsules .*THE CAPSULE FROM THE PHARMACY HAD A GREEN POWDER AND THE SALON CAPSULE HAD WHITE POWDER.*lets first establish who needs to be punished, the pharmacies with the fake product? or the salons, selling the real product ?The girl that posted the above on hellopeter works in medical field, so maybe it is possible that some idiot went and tampered with the product or tried to copy it and made a mess of it. I guess all we have to figure out now is which one is the bad one?
Jean-Mari. No tampering going on here. Here is a letter from simply slim admitting the problem.
I don’t know about you guys but I study medicane and have never heard of a bigger load of rubbish in my life than SS. Nothing should make our metabolism get so fast so quick. Our bodies can’t handle it. I heard about a lady who bled through her eyes, another with kidney any liver failure, and another who almost lost her arm because her quick matabolism was making all the blood go to her intestines instead of her extremities.If you want to lose wait don’t be lazy and expect quick fixes, there’s always a catch!Eat better, gym more, even if it’s just 20min a day. I did it the hard way and lost 15kg in a year, long I know, but I REALLY CAN EAT ANYTHING I WANT!!! I have burgers and chocolates to my hearts content and don’t gain a kilo without exercising at all. This is because of a simple fact, YOUR METABOLISM NEEDS TO BE TRAINED, you can’t just force it to be better and expect it to stay that way.I feel sorry for all the people who were conned into taking SS in the first place, but more sorry for the people who see the side effects and are still willing to try it, I hope your parents didn’t drop you to hard on you heads as babies.I have only ever heard of one type of product which I would back and it’s herbalife. I don’t sell it so don’t think I’m trying to advertise, but my best friend had a baby and weighed 96kg and was really depressed. 3 months later she just hit 72kg and I haven’t seen her this happy or lively in ages. My dad also couldn’t sleep well at night, waking up at 2am and not being able to go back to sleep, I got him one of their products, not only does he sleep straight through but he says he has more energy and feels healthier after just a few weeks.So I dunno, I think if you want to use something to help, make sure people you know have used it and the side effects are the ones you want rather than the type that put you in the hospital. And if you don’t experience side effects with SS then, quite frankly, you appear to be the exception and not the rule, aka purely lucky!Good luck to all of you and I hope the people out there trying to make money out of others misfortune get what they deserve
Oh and as for this 100% natural stuff? Weed is a 100% natural while alcohol is not. Sometimes the truely natural stuff is what should be banned. Ie. opium, cocaine and heroine are natural. I don’t see people trying to get cocain put back in our coca-cola or to be given to babies to help them sleep, because natural stuff is usually more dangerous.
Will you people get off the band wagon? If R590 is expensive get off this site and go to job find. There are many people out there whom has lost weight and still feel good!!!
Wilma my dear i have news for you – i decide who must get off this site but you post is so interesting i will keep it here. I has nothing to do with money but the lies that comes with the box
Oh Please, This site is a joke, Wilma is right,and johan get a proper job , you are a joke.You cant even spell or type properly.I lost weight on simply slim and never felt better, now everyone wants a ride on simply slim, all of a sudden the product did not work so now they all want their money back. seriously grow up and find something better to do with your time, What about the THOUSANDS of people that simply slim has helped?Ever thought of that?Whats the bet this comment will be deleted??I have seen how simply slim improved so many peoples lives and health. Do some proper research. Everyone reacts in different ways to diffrent products…why not start a site against every diet pill out there… Sad what is happening here, people kill, rape, steal, yet this is what you do with your time??/… By the way,what money are you making out of this website???????
My dear Sheila the joke is on you. Good idea i should start a site against diet pill that don\’t comply as it will improve the lifestyle and pockets of many. You don\’t have to be ale to spelll or tipe prperly to makeout taht simply shit ios a scam.
You saying\” YOU have seen\” indicates your a agent not happy as your income have been cut.
Yes it is sad what is happening here. A company Simply Slim is selling a product that they get for $2 (or less) that contains 4 times the legal limit of sibutramine that is causing people to get rushed to hospital with heart conditions caused by simply slim (including myself) and some end up in hospital for days, hair falling out, chests closing up. (shit sounds like nuclear waste in it) ………………
Yes very sad indeed . as for how much money i am making none of your business but currently it is an overhead.
Actually to put it frank I am not an agent, Just a simply slim user and supporter.I really think you should get a life and grow up.Like I said, everyone to their own, I tried every diet pill on the market, and Nothing worked for me. I am a small woman and put on over 20kgs with my baby. I was so unhappy and felt so huge. Nothing worked for me.After taking SS for two months I lost 18kgs and never felt better,I stopped taking SS in november and never picked up a gram. I am now back to my size 30 and weigh 50kg and my doctor says it did wonders for me. I have never felt this great.I am so sad for all the people that have deal with weight problems and now people like you are taking that away from them. Did you ever stop to wonder why SS did not work for you? I drank my water ate healthy and did what I was told…Did you???
Sheila you keep on boasting about this rubbish. I was send a photo today of somebody that used simply slim and I trust in Jesus that person will be ok. You better tell you doctor that what you have been taking has been banned by the MCC and that simply slim was found to contain 4 times the legal prescription limit. Simply Slim didn\’t work for me because it is rubbish. Your are a heartless person that seem to have sick reason for posting on this website and i am getting really cheesed of with people like you as there are more report coming in of people that have been badly hurt. Simply Slim is rubbish and there is stuff in it that is bad for people. Those are the facts.
You say you a simply slim user and supporter. Well then you support people that is selling rubbish to the public and is hurting people. I have a life and that is one that cares for other human beings. Either you refrain from making comments such as this or you are not welcome to post here at all. Shit don\’t you care for human life. You the one that need to get a life
Bla bla, If I bad mouth a product that worked for me then I will be a hero on this site.I wont waste anymore of my time here.I cant WAIT for simply slim to be back!!!
You said i must grow up. You statement here is of a child. I never said you must bad mouth a product to be here. Nobody here is bad mouthing simply slim. They reporting on there finding when using the stuff. You need to get over it as simply slim was a scam and was selling rubbish to the public and conning them for there money. You one of them. Why would the government ban them and just introduce a new law that all slimming stuff that is imported to be tested by the MCC first before they get clearance by customs. The reason that stuff like simply slim is bad for the South African public. This same crap was banned in Italy as 2 people died. I suppose it will make you feel good if that report come out. As far as i am concerned simply should not trade again and i can assure you that if they do i for one will insure that there stuff they selling is legal and above board. You don\’t care for other humans well being that\’s for sure
What a real Sheila you are. I have and still see so many people that have medical problems, because of SS. It’s amazing that the consumer is always to blame. What about the assholes that sell the stuff? Like you say there is so much crime…..well now ain’t you right?
Sheila if a product has no quality control how can it be sold? It appears that some of the tablets contained huge amounts of Sibutrimine and others very little, whatever the case it should not be there in any form. If it worked for you well and good. Think of the people that are having some serious side effects, me for one. I am not alone I promise you.If you dont like what is happening on this site dont bother posting your hysterical views, that one person stood up and did something for those of us who are having side effects well done Johan!If somebody from SS head office only took the time to get back to us when we sent our messages maybe things could have been handled in a different manner, but no, they have taken the money and run like the yellow chickens they are. Agents are NOT QUALIFIED TO HANDLE THE HEALTH ISSUES THAT ARE SURFACING WITH SS.Now be a good girl and go home and play with your toys!!!!Watch Carte Blanche……if you are allowed to stay up at that time.
Just my point it is all about being snotty.Why can i not voice what i have to say?Oh how funny that i should grow up. What a joke.People calm down, breathe and relax…haha
sheila- if you going to accuse people here telling them to grow up etc. then you not welcome to post you. This is my website is not facebook and the reason for me doing this website is to share my use of simply slim. Not if you accept that then why bother coming here. My use and comments are facts and not sucked out my thumb. Did you see the latest pics of a woman that have used simply slim. Disgusting isn\’t it. Well these are real people and you know best of all is they are south africans. It is time we stand together to get rid of the products that is doing OUR PEOPLE HARM. Tomorrow i am doing another report of a woman with simply problems and they bad news. Actually it seems i got off a lot better than other people. You need to calm down, breathe and relax. No laughing matters here
I somehow wish I could give you a couple of the poison pills I have in my possession. There are definitely different pills on the market, some people have had the poison batches and some not. So have sympathy for those that are suffering, dont be so pig headed!If a company like SS worried about quality control and worried about the lives of all the people that have taken this poison they would not have added all the Sibutrimine they did. I would gladly send him to the gallows given the opportunity.I have just had a call from my doctor with the results of my latest tests, I have ‘Serotonin Syndrome’ I am going to be admitted to hospital today as this is a life threatening problem and needs to be sorted out urgently. So Sheila why dont you give me address and I can pay you a visit. You are an agent and nothing more.
I loved the “tampered with” product as I had no side effects except extreme thirst and would love to have got more of it before they took it off the market – this new one does not work and in fact I find myself hungrier than ever
Dalk is almal te siek en op siekverlof agv SS. So daar is baie tyd om te gesels oor die giftige pil. Hoop jy sukkel om voorraad te kry.
Johan
Get your FACTS straight. Reductil is a brand and not an element. It appears that you are trying to accuse Simply Slim of containing Sibutramine – the active ingredient in Reductil (a schedule 7 Medicine).
Now – read the reports – tests conducted by the MCC have consistently found NO SIBUTRAMINE in Simply Slim!!!!
In addition, tests conducted by the SABS have returned results consistent with those conducted by MCC.
You then comment on synephrine – with no understanding or knowledge about that which you write. Permit me to educate you via the following extract from a report on the Simply Slim website:
THE SYNEPHRINE UPROAR
An all-natural product, one of the ingredients of Simply Slim includes an extract of Bitter Orange. This extract includes a small amount of para-synephrine, but this is substantially less than that which is normally found and consumed in Marmalade or Pineapple Juice on a daily basis. Critics of Simply Slim constantly and incorrectly claim that the product contains meta-synephrine, a synthetic product (refer to Beeld article 23 January 2010, page 3): (as translated):
“This (Simply Slim) contains amongst others Bitter Orange, a natural product with m-synephrine.”
Actually, Simply Slim contains para-synephrine, a natural product that is in daily use, and as stated earlier, is found in everyday products like Pineapple Juice and Marmalade. The critics are not able to produce any scientific test results to indicate the basis for their allegations that Simply Slim contains m-synephrine. In a recent report by an independent analyst, handed to the management of Simply Slim, the following is stated on synephrine:
“The “m”-form, called phenylephrine, is used in orthodox medicines, for example as a nasal decongestant, such as Neo-Synephrine, and also, commonly, to treat hypotension (low blood pressure) and it is claimed to be a strong vasoconstrictor (causing a narrowing of the blood vessels) and in turn may raise blood pressure. However, in October 2009, the Department of Health requested Cenquam, the Research Institute for Industrial Pharmacy Inc. at the University of Potchefstroom, to test for m-synephrine in Simply Slim capsules. It was subsequently reported to the Dept. of Health (as reported in Beeld) that no phenylephrine (m-synephrine) was detected in the Simply Slim capsules.
The “p”-form is generally referred to as ephedra’s “calmer chemical cousin” because it increases the body’s metabolic rate or ability to burn calories, without producing negative side effects on the central nervous system and the cardiovascular system.”
The natural ingredients of Simply Slim, particularly Bitter Orange, have been used for medicinal purposes in China for centuries, if not millennia. There is thus an established history of safe human consumption of the product.
Johan – stop your pointless campaign and focus on something positive. You will feel better about yourself too
@Lance Rothschild – oh shit did you read page 5 of the beeld today
JohanThe statement that you made is fallacious. MCC test results have constantly indicated that Simply Slim is Subitramine free. This has constantly been reported in articles in Beeld (which you have pasted onto the website). In addition, test results on the Simply Slim website indicate that Simply Slim is free of banned substances. Furthermore, SABS tests on Simply Slim have constantly and consistently returned results of zero subitramine, save for a sample recently submitted to the SABS by a certain Dr. Botha, with a batch number that does not match the batch numbers of Simply Slim. (Read the Beeld article of 25 January)The “screen grab” that you pasted at the top of this page is about Bitter Orange. There is no mention, save for in your own words, about sibutramine (the active ingredient in Reductil).Now – in an effort to further educate you on the matter, and in the hope that you will remove your fallacious statement, I have taken the liberty of copying this from a document on the Simply Slim website:THE SYNEPHRINE UPROARAn all-natural product, one of the ingredients of Simply Slim includes an extract of Bitter Orange. This extract includes a small amount of para-synephrine, but this is substantially less than that which is normally found and consumed in Marmalade or Pineapple Juice on a daily basis.

There is thus an established history of safe human consumption of the product.Johan – once again your steadfast opposition to Simply Slim has no factual basis, save for your own personal experience.It really is time for you to close this website and give up your attacks on Simply Slim as your comments and arguments have no credibility whatsoever.
@Lance Rothschild – What ever you are writing here is a lot of bull. You have continuously after i asked you if you have any connection with simply slim told me NO which is a lie as you are employed by them. I have asked you to provide me with proof that my batch that you claim have been tested \”negative\” but refused to do so. I have also asked you to openly answer the complaints here on the website and you have not responded. As from the latest finding and your constantly lying to me as far as i am concerned simply slim contains sibutramine which is illegal and was responcible for the problem i had while using simply slim. The problems was the side effect when you take sibutramine that is in simply slim the 100% herbal capsule – Johan
i am on simply slim for 5 days now. i am tired, and so dizzy that i am afraid to drive. i have read the page regarding other people who have the same symptoms. is there any course for recourse. this is an expensive product and i feel disappointed that it should be creating these problems
