Does milk of magnesia really make you loose weight?

Question

i met a girl through a best friend and she told me she lost 40kg through taking milk of magnesia. she showed me a photo and she use to be over 100kg. shes 22 yrs old now and is the size of me.. and im only 19.

Answer 1

Its a laxative dont use it to lose weight.

Answer 2

Yes because it doesn't let food stay in your intestines. The problem is that you don't get nutrition because your food isn't in you long enough to let the nutrients absorb.

Exercise, and eat yogurts. I lost 25lbs just eating yogurt and pecans with some ocasional fruit and chicken on the side.

Answer 3

umm...no, it wouldn't. it might work as a placebo.... milk of magnesia has a base in it to neutralize acid build up in the stomach... if you can think of a reason that would make you loose weight, please let me know.. but i can't think of anything....sorry...

i suppose it could flush your system before you digest the slower absorbed fatty foods...but thats just like puking after eating...just as unhealthy too...
