Diet & Weight Loss - Xenical
84 (120mg) Capsules
In other countries Xenical may also be known
as: Orlistat
Manufacturer: Roche Pharmaceuticals
FDA approved Xenical as a unique medicine which
helps you lose weight and helps to reduce the risk of high cholesterol
levels, hypertension and diabetes.
Unlike other obesity drugs, Xenical prevents
enzymes in the digestive tract from breaking down dietary fats into
smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body. As a result, absorption
of fat is decreased about 30%. Since the undigested triglycerides are
not absorbed, the reduced calories digested have a positive efect on
weight control.
Xenical targets the absorption of fat in your
body rather than merely suppressing your appetite. Dietary fats are
large molecules which need to be broken down by enzymes before they
can be absorbed into the body. When taken with a meal Xenical alters
the activity of these enzymes and allows around one third of the fat
to pass through the digestive system, without adding to your body weight.
Xenical can help you reduce your weight,
maintain a lower weight and minimize any re-gaining of weight. Also
known as Zenical in some countries.
