(Undated) – Your New Year’s resolution to get healthy could open you up to scammers. BBB Investigator, Don O’Brien, says don’t get hooked into a “miracle plan” you don’t want.
He says there is no such thing as a “secret ingredient” or “breakthrough formula” that can result in weight loss “virtually overnight.” O’Brien says before starting any weight-loss program, you should consult a doctor for an assessment of the overall health risks. The doctor may recommend options for losing weight or exercise programs that fit your health status and your ability to stick with a program.
