Chitosan Diet Pills
Claim to Assist Weight Loss
Chitosan is a naturally occurring shellfish fiber which has the
ability to bind itself to fat. Diet pills containing chitosan are
supposed to assist weight loss by grabbing dietary fat as it is
being digested in the intestines. The chitosan (with fat attached)
is then excreted. Result? You consume less fat, therefore fewer
calories, therefore lose weight.
Chitosan Pills - Tests for Weight Loss
According to tests performed by HealthWatch, an independent
'watch-dog', Chitosan weight loss pills are not effective for
weight loss. The tests found no measurable increase in the amount
of fat excreted when taking Chitosan diet pills.
No Weight Loss Guarantees Given by Manufacturer
Like many manufacturers of over-the-counter weight loss pills,
herbal diet pills and dietary supplements, the makers of Chitosan
offer no guarantees of weight loss.
Diet & Weight Loss Pills
Diet and weight loss drugs or pills, whether prescription or
over-the-counter weight loss supplements, are only effective when
combined with a healthy diet and exercise plan.
NOTE: Before using any form of diet pills or weight loss
supplements, please consult your doctor.
