Hello there. I can understand your concern. No, herbal supplements do not help much. Exercise and diet control are the only things that will help you. So start doing that if you really want to lose weight. Don't expect weight loss the easy way. Consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
