Alli Weight Loss Pills Review

Alli created a bit of stir when it was released into the commercial weight loss pill market last year. Alli became the the first non prescription weight loss pill to be granted approval from the FDA (Food & Drugs Administration.) The FDA is the (US) body set up to oversee many industries to ensure that products are fit for human consumption.

It was pretty much a foregone conclusion that Alli would be granted approval as it is a lower strength version of the prescription weight loss drug Xenical. Read about Xenical

This is quite unique – a commercially available weight loss pill that has been given approval usual reserved only for prescription only drugs.

What Is Alli

Alli is a 60mg orlistat capsule (brand name Xenical). But it’s more than just a weight loss pill. It’s an innovative weight loss program that works with you, not for you. Alli can help you lose 50% more weight than dieting alone, but you have to do your part by changing the way you eat.

Alli is a fat blocker that can stop the absorption of over a quarter of dietary fat from food consumed. Fat blocking and fat binding is a very effective method of weight loss.

Alli Side Effects

When Alli was released onto the market the internet was awash with consumer reports of side effects. The most being an oily discharge from the rectum. This doesn’t sound very pleasant but it does prove that fat is being stopped or blocked from being absorbed into the digestive system. The undigested fat has to leave the body somehow – the oily discharge.

Does Alli Work

Alli has been proven to work and is proven for safety, hence the FDA approval. The biggest drawback is the “lower strength” part. Xenical is a powerful weight loss medication and is so because of its formula and strength. Alli gives the impression it just too diluted to compete in the commercial weight loss market.

Alli has had some good consumer feedback and positive testimonies.

Where To Buy Alli

The American consumer is spoilt for choice – the UK market is a little less welcoming in terms of UK stockists.

Alli Can now be purchased online via registered online pharmacists.

Alli is available either in a 42 or 82 pack with each capsule containing 60mg of Orlistat

Xenical Fat Blocker Review

Xenical is possibly the most common, best known and most likely prescribed slimming pill in the UK. Xenical is the brand name of Orlistat, a weight loss drug or medication that is available only via visit to or consultation from a GP or doctor.

Xenical is specifically designed to treat obesity and is a pharmaceutical grade weight loss product that is not available to buy over the counter from the high street or from the internet without prior consultation from the medical profession. Not everyone qualifies for Xenical – only those with a high BMI (Body Mass Index) of over 30 would be considered.

Xenical can be found and purchased from certain sections of the internet – the black market demand for weight loss drugs is high but does not come without risk. If you are tempted to buy Xenical from the internet it is highly likely that you will not be buying Xenical Orlistat, but an imitation or replica product.

How Does Xenical Help Weight Loss

Xenical is a fat blocker – fat blocking and fat binding are the two most effective weight loss technologies that manufacturers of diet products use. Fat blocking is a preventative measure that stops the absorption of a percentage of fat from being absorbed by your body.

Up to 25% of deitary fat consumed can be stopped from entering your digestive system. Without a change to your current diet you are taking on a quarter less calories than you would without Xenical to explain the process more simplistically.

Side Effects Caused By Xenical

As Xenical is a prescription weight loss drug it can carry risk – this is another reason not to purchases Xenical but obtain via prescription.

As a percentage of dietary fat is blocked or stopped from entering your digestive system it has to leave somewhere and somehow. The usual less serious side effect is more frequent bowel movement. The change of bowel movements can be viewed as a positive side effect as it does prove that the fat blocking procedure of Xenical is working.

Other side effects can vary person to person – some of the more common are: headaches, oily discharge from rectum, diarrhoea and abdominal pain.

Does Xenical Work

Xenical has been the defacto prescription weight loss pill for over decade. Xenical is clinically proven and classed as a medical device.

Where To Buy Xenical

Unfortunately Xenical is via prescription or consultation only. If you are not considered at risk or dangerously overweight it is highly unlikely you will prescribed a course.

Alternatives to Xenical

Alli – More recently a non prescription and lower strength version of Xenical (Orlistat) was released into the market.

Proactol – a non prescription fat binder that also works by stopping fat from being absorbed but without the oily discharge as Proactol binds with fat rather than just blocks.
