Artificial

• SlimShots contain artificial flavoring and the artificial sweetener aspartame; SlimQuick has no artificial ingredients.

Types

• SlimShots are small packets of liquid, each about the size of coffee creamer, that can be "slugged" on their own or added to food and beverages. SlimQuick comes in capsule form or as a powdered drink mix.

Cost
