I imagine it's the same concept of the "Fullbar" snacks. Just like any other gimmick, if it really worked, everyone would be using it and singing its praises, right? Unfortunately, there are no miracle pills, bars, shakes, etc.

Another weight loss miracle pill that doesn't work except to lighten you bank account.
