Beauton-C. Have you heard of it ?

[ulrika]

I am trying to locate a product called Beauton-C which is supposedly an aid to weight loss. I am told that it's an English product but I can't find any reference to it. Can any of you help, please.

I have tried searching for this but the only sites that mention it are Russian .... Maybe its a Russian product .. it doesn't seem to be English.

Thanks Wendy. I've tried the net and can also only find Russian sites. I've been asked to find it by a friend who has seen a report on it in a Russian newspaper where it states that the product is English. I was hoping that someone might know of it or have seen it in the shops.

not mixing up with beautox?

No it's not Beautox nor Botox. Definately Beauton-C in the paper. Help, it's driving me crazy.

On possibility: whoever's trying to sell this to Russia is claiming (falsely) that it comes from the UK because people might be more likely to trust a 'Western' product? In which case, it's hardly suprising that you can't track it down here. It wouldn't be the first time that an 'aid to weight loss' was somehow less trustworthy than first appeared!
