Doctors now say that they are worried about a “sinister” new diet patch that specifically targets young women and teenagers who don’t need to lose weight. One doctor told Newsbeat quoting: “This is purely done to make money without any thought about the effect it’s having on these vulnerable teenagers with image problems who think they need to lose weight but they don’t.”

He adds there’s “no convincing clinical evidence” that any of the natural ingredients like a seaweed called Fucus Vesiculosus , or “Bladderwrack” actually help with weight loss.

Tell us what you think. Did the Pink Patch work for you or do you think that this is just a scam, perhaps a very clever Placebo.
