Del Monte introduced last year (if I’m not mistaken) their product Fit N’ Right. For those who don’t know about it, well it’s just a juice drink which contains L-Carnitine, a substance that speeds up the body’s metabolism which means that it could aid in weight loss.
But is it effective?
A friend of mine said that his brother is drinking religiously thrice a day because accordingly drinking it that often will be beneficial for your body weight. And yes, as a matter of fact his brother lost a bit of weight within the first few weeks without changing any part of his diet. If this is the case, then what more if you combine diet and exercise too?
The only drawback of this is that it costs around 20 Pesos and drinking this three times a day will cost you 60 Pesos per day - an amount almost equivalent to the cost of Fitness First gym membership for one day! Aside from that, I think anyone will get tired drinking the same old juice that many times per day. The best thing to do is to combine diet, exercise and Fit N’ Right since drinks like these are more of a supplement for weight loss rather than a total replacement to the real thing!

if you chek the content of fit and right it does contain sugar and if you tried drinking it, youd say that it contains a lot of sugar, though l-cartinine helps burn fat but dont just depend on it…
eat properly and exercise is the best approach
i agree. it’s kinda sweet if you taste it
i think its artificial sweeteners guys
If one is just after the L-carnitine content, then why not just take Fitrum. Anyone here who tried this one too?
fitrum is good..actually tlgng papayat k kc nawawalan k ng ganang kumain..i think ok din ang Fit ‘n Right(nde ko p sya natry)kc juice sya from natural fruits..d b sabi nga nila mas malakas magpapayat ang fruits..lalo kung pineapple..
try ky natin pagsabayin ang fitrum at fit ‘n right?kaso masakit n sa bulsa..
sana makainvent nman cla ng pampapayat k nde n need magexercise…what do you think guys?
i lost a lot of weight in just one month with fit n right and daily exercise! it brought back by abs and even got me 2 modeling stints last summer! take note, i wore a string bikini! it really works!
I don’t agree that fit n’ right is effective. I’ve been drinking it for about 3 months already and it disappointed me which what I expected to be the outcome was surely became its opposite. I gained 10 lbs. (I think) when I started it drinking. I guess it’s the sugar-ontent which made my body shape this way at present. Though it has L-carnitine, it still can’t help you lose weight because it is counterpated with a lot of sugar contents by each serving. So as you take many servings of Fit n’ Right, many sugar contents will accumulate your body which will eventually become the source of greater deposites of carbs in your body. Many carbs n the body can make a person fat, right? Eating foods loaded with sugar (esp. refined sugar) increases the body’s “fat storage” as insulin “promotes the storage of fat.”
Drinking lots of water is better. It has no sugar content, costs less and is available anytime. Drinking at least 10-12 glasses of water a day will not only help in the detoxification but will also rehydrate your body. It helps in the replenishment of fluids lost like urine, tears and perspiration. But I believe that proper diet is the right key towards keeping the right weight. Remember the saying, You are what you eat. Add exercise and you will achieve additional health as well as aesthetic benefits.
I drink Fit ‘n Right 3-5 times everyday. I lost 5 pounds with proper diet and exercise. By exercise, I mean CRUNCHES. I do it at least 100 times everyday.
Hi Guys,
My 2 cents worth on this!
First of all, L-Carnitine is not a miracle slimming ingredient on its own. You need to partner this with exercise for it to work. You will not lose weight from just drinking fit and right alone. If you think about it, you’ll actually lose more weight by exercising and drinking water than Fit and Right! Why? Because you dont add any calories with water! With Fit and Right, you take in alomot 100Cal per drink. Doing this 3-5 times a day is like drinking a milk shake already!
I agree with Janus on the proper diet bit along with exercise!. Just remeber that burn more than what you take in and you will lose weight! Drinking this may help but there are more practical ways of losing weight.
I think it works if you will have a proper diet and exercise. It will not work if you’ll just drink without doing anything. It helps burn fats but you also need to have a proper diet and exercise. Maybe Del Monte Fit N’ Right helps for 40% only but exercise and proper diet is 60%
