Chitosan, an amazing fiber supplement derived from shellfish, has the ability to bind fats and trap them in the digestive tract. Chitosan Plus with LipoSan Ultra is an innovative chitosan with rapid solubility, allowing you to take it at meal time instead of up to 1 hour before. The fat blocking properties of chitosan, in large, depend on its solubility time. This product not only binds fat, it actually attracts fat because it carries a positive electrical charge.
Researchers now know that too much fat in the blood stream contributes to high cholesterol levels and increases risk of obesity, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes. One study done in Helsinki shows patients who took chitosan lost an average of 8% of their body weight in 4 weeks.
** Do not take essential fatty acid supplements at the same time as Chitosan Plus. **Suggested use: 4-8 capsules daily in divided doses before meals with 8 oz. of water.
