Additional Info
The BBB wishes to advise consumers that the Ottawa address for this company is a UPS store mail box. The corporation that owns Global Weight Management Research is Madelnet Promotions Inc., located in La Prairie, outside of Montreal, Quebec.

Searching the internet for this company results in a website for "Seacoast Natural Health" in Las Vegas, Nevada. Seacoast claims that their website has been "spoofed" by Global Weight Management Research. This means that one company (Global Weight Management Research) uses Google to link themselves to another company (Seacoast Natural Health). Global Weight Management Research has taken a copy of Seacoast's home web page, and placed their product information on it. Seacoast Natural Health states that there is no connection between themselves and Global Weight Management Research, and that Seacoast does not sell Zero Cal Capsules. Seacoast has reported the spoof to Google.

The BBB cautions consumers about purchasing diet products over the internet or from an advertisement flyer; and about diet pills that promise rapid weight loss without dieting or exercising. All diet medication should be taken under a doctor's supervision.
