ATLANTA, GA -- Doctors were surprised when two sepa- rate studies found that a natural dietary supplement could help cause significant weight loss.

Although not conclusive, both studies found that pa- tients receiving the formula called Bio-Rex 3 0 0 0 ~ ~ lost more than twice as much weight as those in a control group on the same fat reduced diet. Neither group was instructed to de- crease the amount of food they ate or to increase their exercise levels. An article published in the American Journal of Clinicul Nutrition says that you don't have to decrease the amount of food you eat to lose weight, provided that you limit the fat.

According to a spokesper- son for Phillips Gulf Corpora- tion, the exclusive North American distributor of Bio- Rex 3000, the company is con- sidering additional studies in order to get federal approval to make pharmaceutical claims. Currently, weight loss claims for the Bio-Rex 3000 supple- ment are limited. However, with the requisite approval, the com- pany could say that Bio-Rex 3000 decreases sugar cravings, increases metabolism and in- terferes with the body's ability to produce excess fat. Bio-Rex 3000 iscurrentlyavail-

able as a dietary supplement and plan in pharmacies and nu- trition stores or by calling l - 800-729-8446. A four week sup- ply is just $19.99. Q Bio-Rex 3000 is available at:
