Bulawayo is freaking out after a bunch of sketchy weight-loss pills started putting people in the hospital with messed-up stomachs and nonstop shaking. Health workers at United Bulawayo Hospitals are warning that these unregistered capsules from markets around Nkulumane, Pelandaba, and Main Street have mystery chemicals that trash your liver and kidneys. One woman dropped a couple of kilos in less than a week but ended up severely dehydrated and throwing up constantly.
The pills are getting pushed hard on WhatsApp and Facebook with fake before-and-after photos, promising quick results without any diet or gym time. Police are trying to track down the sellers, but they keep bouncing around locations and hiding behind social media accounts. Some influencers are getting dragged for promoting this garbage without checking if it's even safe.
Authorities are begging residents to stick with actual nutritionists and proper exercise instead of falling for these dangerous shortcuts, especially with the holidays coming up and everyone wanting to look good.
