Is BZP (Benzylpiperazine) legal & is it safe?
BZP is an ingredient, which has been passed by the Expert Advisory Committee on Drugs (EACD) as safe and legal to sell as an open selling ingredient through out New Zealand. The findings of their investigation were made available in April 2004. Since this time products containing BZP have been restricted to people 18+, this is primarily due to the "party pill" industry wide over use of this ingredient (some part pill doses are up to 1,000mg per capsule).

BZP has a safe dose of between 60mg - 85mg. SlimFast contains 60mg per capsule, the minimum active dose.

Why is BZP included in the formula?
Metabolic rate or increase in metabolism. This formula supports increased metabolic rate, this is known as thermogenisis and is what burns calories, the more calories you burn the more weight a person will lose.

• Uplifting / Motivating. BZP at the lowest active dose of 60mg has a mild uplifting feeling. This feeling is also described as a motivating feeling, which encourages over people to be active and add exercise into their weight management routine.

• Appetite Suppressant. Taken daily a small amount of BZP does work very well as an appetite suppressant. It will help people with reducing their cravings.

• Caffeine Free Formula. BZP works in a similar way on the metabolic rate as many caffeine based weight management formulas. Other than a very small amount of naturally occurring caffeine in the Green tea SlimFast is an alternative to Caffeine or Guarana based Thermogenics.
