Herbal slimming pill could be Viagra for women

A large number of women who have taken an herbal weight loss drug called Vita-Lean

Have reported an increase in there sexual desire of up to 90%, much the same way as

Viagra works.

The Metro newspaper reports on a lady called Sarah Marshall who said she took Vita-Lean to lose weight ‘and managed to lose a stone in under a month’. ‘But she noticed a side-effect in so far as it’s restored my sex life to the full.

It is believed a key natural ingredient; Irvingia Gabonensis – an extract of the African mango, eaten for its health benefits – could be responsible. A tea-based infusion of the extract has been used for centuries in Africa as an aphrodisiac.

Richard Wylie, the managing director of Vitagetics, the product’s British distributor, stressed the ‘side effect’ was harmless.

‘To a large extent, it could be a placebo but, nevertheless, could benefit many relationships,’ he added.

Vita-Lean promises to help women drop a dress size in just three weeks by tricking the body’s metabolism into staying active. The pill – already a hit in the US – is available online and does not need a prescription.
