Just like head wigs appear in books by ancient thinkers, inventor’s poets
and musicians, so doe’s weight loss pills. The first recoded mention about
weight loss pills belong to Soranus of Ephus. Soranus was a renowned
Greek physician who lived in the 2nd century A.D. The ancient physician in
his works describes the then popular methods of weight reduction. He for
instance talks of body massage, laxities and purgatives. Soranus also mentions
heart massage and physical exercises. The physician’s work is seen as the
corner stone of loss weight principles that guided the industry for nearly one
thousand years. The new forms of treatment began to emerge in 1920s and
1930s. These were interesting times in the global history. Science had gotten
broad enough to dig deeper into these issues in details. Different expeditions
were also being conducted by a number of explorers who bumped into new
plant species from which various medicine forms could be derived. Lifestyles
changed and people started leading affluent lives hence weight problems
became more and more pronounced. Today the search is on for the best
weight loss pills.
