Wearing 'miracle' vest for just 8 hrs a day helps you lose inches without moving a muscle

A new "miracle" vest claims to help slimmers lose inches without moving a muscle, all you need to do is wear a vest for eight hours a day.

The Caffeine Infused Slimming Tank Top is said to help wearers lose an inch around the hips and trim 1.25 inches from the waist, the Daily Star reported.

American makers Hammacher Schlemmer claim that the green coffee and brown algae infused fabric will whittle down love handles.

But hopeful slimmers will have to commit to wearing the garment for eight hours every day for three weeks to see a difference.

The vest is expected to cost around 50 pounds.

The top, which comes in three different sizes, is currently only available for women although the sizes do go up to an XXL.

Made with a mix of elastane and nylon it is designed to create a slender silhouette when worn under clothes and is said to be comfy enough to be worn in bed.

The active ingredients are said to be potent enough to withstand 20 machine washings, which is supposedly enough to help kick-start your path to rock hard abs.
