There are many treatments available for obesity, including exercise, dietary changes, medications. While thinking about weigtht loss treatment with medication, there are several medications available in the market.
A new diet pill - Alli is becoming popular for weight loss treatment. It is becoming popular because it is approved to be sold over-the-counter. Hence, one does not need to see your GP for Alli weight loss treatment and is available at pharmacy across country.
Alli is a weight loss diet pill manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline. It contains active ingredient Orlistat at reduce dosage of 60mg, comparing to 120mg prescription medication Xenical. Alli works the same way as Xenical, absorbs about 25 per cent of the fat from food taken by you in your meal. Alli will be provided to those with a body mass index (BMI) of 28 or higher after a quick consultation with a pharmacist.
Alli is taken three times a day with every fat-containing meal. However it is recommended to observe fat intake, because of the specific way how Alli works, it is strongly recommended that fat intake doesn’t exceed 15 grams with each meal.
Potentially, eating higher amounts of fat in meals, can result in unwanted side effects, including diarrhea, urgent bowel movements, and gas with oily spotting. So, minimizing fat intake while taking Alli can help getting better and safe weight loss results.
Alli diet pill does not suppress the appetite, reducing the amount of nutrients that the body receives; instead, it only attacks a percentage of unwanted fat. The body will still absorb nutrients, protein, fiber, and carbohydrates. It is advised to take vitamin supplements while taking Alli diet pills, to prevent potential nutrient deficiencies.
Trials show that adding Alli to a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet can help to lose 50 per cent more fat than by dieting alone. Alli diet pill is not a magic pill as there is no single solution to losing weight, but for every 2 pounds (0.9kgs) someone can lose by healthy eating and exercise, Alli could help them lose an extra 1 pound on top of that.
It is also good to know that many of the weight loss estimates are actually based on some studies conducted on its cunterpart, Xenical. The average weight loss for prescription-strength Xenical is modest — about 6 pounds greater than diet and exercise alone after one year. So at half the strength, Alli could conceivably result in an average of 3 pounds lost in a year in addition to the approximately 8 pounds you could expect to lose from diet and exercise alone.
