Description
On Facebook, Oprah Winfrey, through a video podcast of sorts, endorses Lipomax as a form of the pink salt trick, a natural Munjaro for weight loss. She interviews Dr. Ania, the Stanford doctor who discovered this natural compound. Dr. Ania explains that Lipomax is equally as effective as Munjaro, without the dangerous side effects. In the video, the doctor's story is buttressed with animated graphics. I purchased a 6-month supply for $326. The next day, a "coach" called me from Lipomax to ask a series of questions - "Do you smoke? Consume alcohol? Take meds? Etc." The purported goal of that conversation was to ensure Lipomax, would not conflict with my lifestyle choices or medicine I might be taking. They succeeded in upselling me on a "natural supplement" they claimed was a "metabolism booster." I purchased a 2-month supply for $143.95. Both of these products came with a 60-day refund guarantee. I took the products for 3 weeks. I felt bloated and dehydrated. I didn't lose weight. It didn't decrease my appetite. I attempted to contact the company but could not find a phone number. They never responded to my email requests for a refund. I googled "Is Lipomax a scam" and discovered that I, along with probably THOUSANDS of other people, had been boondoggled. The fake video was created with AI. Oprah has nothing to do with this product.
