weight loss formula

"weight loss" seems to be a more popular expression than "slimming" these days.

alternative

Personally, I find use of the word "formula" offputting, because it makes me think of baby food (milk powder). I'd prefer somethng called a "slimming solution". But maybe I don't have the same priorities as those wishing to lose weight.

"Slimming solution" gets only half the number of GGLs for "slimming formula". Waaaah, waaaaaaaah, I want my lunch.

slimming product

I would agree with Bourth that you shouldn't use 'formula' here. I would suggest just 'slimming product' as an alternative. A few other ideas might be 'slimming supplement', 'slimming remedy', or 'slimming aid'.
