The only FDA approved over-the-counter weight loss product
One of the best weight loss products on the market today is Alli. Alli is a low-dose version of Orlistat and it has just recently earned FDA approval to be offered and sold over the counter without prescriptions. Alli / Orlistat works by blocking excess fat from being absorbed by your body. So it is recommended that you take it 3 times a day, basically, before meals. This is why Alli is so popular: if you eat too much fat, it simply won't be absorbed by your body. There are side effects to this, but we feel that only encourages you to cut down on your fat intake in the first place. Studies have shown that 25% of your fat consumption a day can be blocked from being absorbed.
MORE THAN THAT, though, is that we feel that Alli is the only product on the market that does all it can to actively promote a healthy lifestyle built around the use of the product, including things like diet, nutrition, exercise and smaller portions. The material put out by he manufactures (GlaxoSmithkline Beecham) and the encouragement you get, are second to none.
