Not Just Ozempic, Arnold Schwarzenegger Strictly Advises Against All the Weight Loss Supplements

Arnold Schwarzenegger has always been quite supportive of proven research over prolonged myths when it comes to fitness. When the topic of weight loss supplements was brought up, the bodybuilder presented the argument of how useless unverified myths can become in actually providing a result.

The 76-year-old bodybuilder has observed several tests to understand that supplements that claim to reduce weight and burn fat do not really show any effective changes. Hence, Arnold Schwarzenegger implored his fans not to waste time or money on bad investments.

Arnold Schwarzenegger prefers not to believe in hearsay

Recently, Schwarzenegger reflected that most weight loss supplements might show a slight increase in resting metabolism. He said, “The latest study compared participants who used a “fat-burner” (those quotes are needed) for four weeks to those using a placebo. The supplement users saw a slight increase in resting metabolism.”

Moreover, Arnold Schwarzenegger pointed out that these fat burners barely have any improvements in one’s sleep quality, physical activity, or body weight loss. Instead of using such supplements, he suggested to eat more protein. He said, “We recommend saving money on fat-burning pills and focusing on sustainable habits such as improving your nutrition (remember tool #2: eating more protein and fiber), exercising, and getting enough sleep.”

The bodybuilder has always been openly supportive of his diet for effective weight loss. He has tried and tested many ways himself and decided that it is only through diet he can tackle it.
