How does the Alli weight loss program work?

05-05-2009

Alli is an over the counter weight loss product – one of the few such products that have actually been approved by the FDA. The combination of a weight loss pill and a plan designed to fit a person’s individual needs means that users of Alli will not only lose weight, but just as importantly, keep the weight off as well.

Most people gain weight because of their high intake of fat. Alli works because it specifically targets the body’s fat, rather than proteins and carbohydrates which contain nutrients that are actually beneficial to the body. The fat is blocked from being absorbed in the body’s gastrointestinal tract.

Fat contains a lot of the calories we consume – in fact, just a pound of fat can contain around 3,500 calories – so blocking the intake of fat can make a huge difference when it comes to weight gain. A calorie deficit means that the body’s system will burn fat to use for energy, helping to accelerate the weight loss process.

The Alli program works so well because it not only includes the daily weight loss pill and a weight loss plan; it also includes suggestions for toning exercises and a low fat diet, as well as changes in overall behavior. In short, it is the complete weight loss solution for those who have tried everything else.

Alli isn’t perfect – like other weight loss systems, it works best when used along with exercise and a healthy diet and lifestyle. However, if used correctly and sensibly, most people using Alli should be able to lose about 50% more weight than with just diet and exercise alone. And because Alli targets the digestive system, there are none of the usual side effects of sleeplessness or jitters.
