Personally identifiable information is information that identifies you or can be used to identify or contact you (“Personally Identifiable Information“). Such Personally Identifiable Information may include your name, address, email address, telephone number, birth date (primarily for eligibility purposes) and billing and credit card information, and fitness information (such as weight or BMI).

I have some questions about the program. Who can I talk to?
-We are here for you! Do you have questions or need a little extra motivation? We are never more than a phone call away.

Can I participate if I have a medical condition such as diabetes or heart disease?
– Yes. Your health and well-being are our primary concern. Our team has worked with people with diabetes, high blood pressure, heart conditions, high cholesterol, arthritis and joint pain, thyroid disease, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis and cancer. We highly recommend consulting with your physician before starting a weight-loss program.
How much do I have to exercise?
– You can exercise as little or as much as you would like. Exercise will help with weight loss, but it is not a required part of the program.
What are the benefits of taking the supplements?
– Our supplements are nutritionally designed with weight loss in mind. They can help to increase inch loss, speed up metabolism, fight cravings and improve gut health. A e-Program Advisor can assist you in selecting the supplements best suited for your nutritional and weight-loss needs.
Why are Thermo-Snacks® part of my program and what do they do?
– SlimGenics Thermo-Snacks have the highest quality protein needed for weight-loss success. Thermo-Snacks help to enhance energy, prevent deviations and improve weight-loss results.

What are Rewards Points?
– With SlimGenics Rewards, our free online loyalty program, you earn points with every online purchase. With every $20 spent in the SlimGenics Online Store, you earn one Rewards point, which is equal to $1.00 to use when shopping on www.SlimGenicsDirect.com Redeeming your points is easy! Simply redeem your Rewards points at checkout. If you have accumulated the minimum of just 5 points, you may apply them toward any purchase.

Each time new Rewards points are earned; ALL points in your account are extended for another 90 days.
How fast can I expect to lose weight?
– This is different for everyone, but healthy people who follow the SlimGenics plan can expect to lose, on average, 1 to 2 pounds per week but many have achieved even faster results. The rate at which you lose weight depends on your age, gender, health history, starting weight and activity level. It is important to note that some medical conditions and medications can slow down weight loss.

Is the food plan very restrictive?
– No! SlimGenics is based on Balanced Nutrition. You will eat food from all of the food groups. We will help you understand what, when and how much to eat to lose your weight easier and faster than trying to do it on your own.
Is my online payment secure?
