I've been reading about this so called program called Alli that has been been designed by Glaxo Smith Kline and approved by the FDA as a safe method to help with weightloss. It is said in these articles that with a commitment to a low fat diet and regular exercise program (plus taking these pills 3x a day) a person will lose weight 50% more than with a regular dieting/exercise regimen. Does anyone have any additional knowledge of this product? Aside from the regular side effects, is the drug Orlistat safe?
Answer:
The drug is actually very safe. It works only in your digestive track as thats where it begins blocking 1/4 of the fat that you eat. The fat that is blocked is removed in your stool as waste if you consume to much fat however (over 15 grams per meal) it makes it harder for your stool to absorb the excess fat flushed out of your system which is how some of the side effects could occur. If you watch what you eat, you'll avoid these. Basically the formula for the drug works like this for every 5 lbs you lose on your own, alli will knock off an additional 2-3 lbs by blocking the fat, diet and exercise help increase your weight loss productivity.You should drink plenty of water to help flush the excess fat out of your system and commit to a low calorie diet. I recommend at least 15-20 minutes a day of cardio to at least get back in the swing of exercise and help aide the weight loss.If you want to read more or participate in the blog here is a good site. Also its pretty cheap to buy it there to. http://www.coffeewineandgifts.com/buy-al...
