Providing
information and resources concerning the new prescription weight
loss diet pill.
Xenical is
the new revolutionary "Fat Blocker" that prevents
one third of the fat calories in your diet from being absorbed
and thus converted into fat. Xenical works by targeting the absorption
of fat in your digestive system rather than merely suppressing
your appetite. Many products claim to be "fat blockers"
however; Xenical is the only prescription medication that is approved
by the FDA.
"Two-year treatment
with Xenical plus diet significantly promotes weight loss, lessens
weight regain, and improves some obesity-related disease risk
factors including high cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes."
--The
Journal of the American Medical Association
Xenical “fat blocker” mechanism
of action
*Xenical
(fat blocker) works here, covalently bonding to the pancreatic
lipases
Dietary fats are large molecules,
which must be broken down by lipase enzymes before they can be
absorbed into the blood stream. Xenical when taken with a meal
alters the activity of these enzymes, blocking one third of an
individual's dietary fat from being absorbed into the bloodstream.
Although dietary fat is an
essential part of a balance diet, fat represents two times the
number of calories per gram as compared to proteins or carbohydrates.
Therefore, by blocking one third of the fat in the diet, individuals
can significantly decrease their daily caloric intake and lose
weight.
