A recent study of the 50 Unhealthiest Breakfasts reports that Granny's Country Omelet, served up by Perkins Restaurants heads the list.  This blockbuster, which is accompanied by hash browns and three pancakes, tops out at a staggering 2,060 calories, coupled with 23 grams of saturated fat, 6,050 milligrams of Sodium and 276 carbs.

Eddy Chavey, perhaps better known as Mr. Breakfast, says, "You’re going to end up feeling sluggish and considering all the options out there, including many of the fast food options, it’s a real shame when people go for these high calorie meals, and especially the saturated fat.”

Perkins Family Restaurants and Bakery are the least-healthy breakfast venues.  The  study limited restaurant chans to five meals.  Otherwise, Perkins would have captured 18 of the top 20 spots, with too many offerings rich in calories and saturated fat. 

Half the individuals who have tried an experimental diet found they experienced some weight loss and were able to keep the weight off even after year without having to worry about heart problem in which some diet pills cause.

Lorcaserin, which is manufactured by Arena Pharmaceuticals, is only one of the three drugs that is raising the hopes as an effective weight loss medication. On Thursday, one of these drugs will get a review by the Food and Drug Administration while the other two will be reviewed later on this year.

In the recent study, it was found that Lorcaserin actually caused individuals to lost five percent of their body weight at least over a years time, which was more than twice the rate that has been achieved by other dummy diet pills.

Many individuals do not stick to diets and there are so many diet pills on the market that have had serious side effects that individuals have not been able to take them long term. One of the lowest points for diet pills was back in 1997 when the extremely popular fenphen got pulled off the shelves when it was discovered that it was tied in with many heart valve problems.

Now, in 2010 is Lorcaserin, which is a round blue tablet that could definitely be the first novel weight loss pill if it wins the approval of the Food and Drug Administration. This weight loss pill targets the same pathway of the appetite that fenphen did, but it is much more selective and safer in the manner in which it goes about it.
