WEIGHT LOSS STUDY PARAMETERS
This study was performed to observe the effects of the Introduction of AMAZON HERB PRODUCTS to the programs of 5 of the women on the list and the application of a control to another. The control was given a liquid placebo and believed that she was taking the product.

Each of the participants In the study had been clients on the program at least for 6 months. Each client had been on the routine and had not observed any significant weight loss during the previous 6 months.

Initial bodyweights recorded were as follows:

WEIGHT LOSS STUDY RESULTS
The Data below indicated the bodyweight of each participant 6 months prior to study, at the onset of the study, and after 6 weeks on the products donated by the AMAZON HERB COMPANY.

WEIGHT LOSS STUDY INFORMAT1ON
Notable comments from the participants were many and deserved some edited record in the study article.

The most common comment from the participants was the feeling of heat or warmth a few minutes after administration of the ILLUMINATION™ product. Further, most participants stated that they felt more energy during the workout and during the day. The participants in the study did admit to being skeptical at the onset of the study. Each had been frustrated with little significant weight loss during the previous six months.

It should be noted that every participant requested further use of the product at the end of the study for their personal use.

WEIGHT LOSS STUDY OBSERVATIONS
The data involving weight loss of the participants shows interesting and notable results that demand further observation. In each case, except the control, the percent change in bodyweight after the introduction of the herb product was significantly higher than that of the previous six months. The percentages of variation are calculated below for each case.

The data shows that there was a significant percent drop in bodyweight during the time of administration of the herb products when compared to the prior six month of changes in weight.

The control did not show the same trend in percent change as did the participants.

WEIGHT LOSS STUDY CONCLUSIONS
The results of the study are dramatic. Each case showed a very marked percent increase during the herbal therapy except one. This participant did, however, show an increase in percentage during the therapy, but a minor one. It must be noted that the percent changes were 6 months (previous period without administration of the herbal product) versus 6 weeks (administration of herbal product). This wide variation in time and the percentage changes as recorded show that some variable must account for the loss during the six week period.

Every attempt was made to insure that there was minimal variation in the workload, lifestyle and diet of each participant. Error might account for one or two misleading results, however, every participant registered a loss, 4 of the 5, showing significant loss. The control that did not receive herbal product did not show a loss.

The scope of this study is limited. However, there is reasonable evidence to assume that the herbal product may have made a difference in the resulting weight loss of the participants. The study must give the reader a format with which to further pursue the possibility that these products may enhance fat metabolism through a variety of ways. It has been suggested that the metabolism may be speeded up to increase the Basal Metabolic Rate. It may enhance total energy output and thus raise total caloric expenditure. It may enhance digestion, assimilation, and utilization of food and aid in more effective food processing and storage.

These are speculations based on the data and results. It is far beyond the parameters of this study to make an hypothesis on the causal effects of the products. It must be observed that the data does show a very significant change with the only known variable to be the herbal product administered to the participants in the study.

It is recommended that any individual or researcher sample the product and make their own conclusions. The results from this study do show a significant reason to believe that the products may have a positive effect on fat metabolism, metabolic rate, and weight loss.
