My primary goal for everyone is to get a understanding of self. This goes beyond the mental and metaphysical to even your physical. This is why exercise is so important in your daily lives. Granted, may of us do not have the time to go out and exercise so it is still important to take it to the next level and try a product to assist. One of my good friends just added a diet patch to his life and increased his metabolism and therefore decreased his weight.  It helped him tremendously.  The way I see it, it wont hurt to try.  And, if it works, that makes your life all that much easier.
