Alli Diet Pill: Trim Yourself for a Beautiful Tomorrow

Alli - manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline - is a new FDA approved drug that can be bought over the counter. It is lower dosage (60mg) form of Xenical (Orlistat) that helps you to loose weight in an easy way.

Alli is available to anyone who wants assistance losing weight. Alli actually uses the same active ingredient as another diet pill, Xenical, but it is a half dose. Typically, enzymes in your intestines break down fat from food so your body can absorb the fat. But, the active ingredient in Alli attaches to some of these enzymes and prevents them from digesting about a quarter of the fat you eat. Because undigested fat can't be absorbed, it passes out of your body naturally.

Dr. James Anderson, head of the UK College of Medicine Metabolic Research Group said, "This is the first over-the-counter medicine that has proven effectiveness. It is my hope that people will take one capsule before each regular meal, breakfast, lunch, and supper, and alters their fat and calorie intake". Further he added, "If they commit to exercise six days a week, most people can lose weight steadily. All of us are in this for the long haul and need to keep up healthy behaviors, not for days or weeks, but for months and years. Doing regular physical activity and making good food choices will help us be trimmer and give us more energy."

Unlike traditional diet pills, Alli is not an appetite suppressant. Instead, it prevents the gastrointestinal system from absorbing about 25 percent of the fat a person consumes. If you eat more than the recommended 15 grams of fat at a meal, you may experience cramps and the uncontrollable escape of those extra fat grams. Thus this diet pill makes it possible to lose 50% MORE weight than dieting alone. It means that if you were to lose 10 pounds by dieting, you would lose 15 pounds with Alli.

But on the contrary, don't use Alli if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you have had an organ transplant. Moreover, if you are taking cyclosporine, or if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in Alli capsules then do not take this drug. And the other important thing is that before using Alli diet pill, discuss your all medical history with doctors because some side effects like- loose or more frequent stools, an urgent need to go to the bathroom, or gas with an oily discharge- may occur.

This was a great read and very informative. I found natural diet pills to be the best and really the only ones that work. I am so much more confident now that I've lost the weight I needed to. I found TheWeightLossPlace.com to be a great helper in me chosing my natural diet pill.
