Liposinol™ contains Litramine, a patented fibre complex obtained from a natural plant source. Litramine in Liposinol™ has a high affinity to bind fats and helps control your dietary fat intake. With Liposinol™, you limit your daily fat intake from food and this means limiting the calories that go into your body.

Liposinol™ is the only source of dietary fibre that is a medical product under the MDD 93/42 EEC for weight management and for prevention and treatment of obesity.

Liposinol™ is not a drug. Liposinol™ contains a patented fibre complex obtained from 100% natural plant source that is organically grown. Liposinol™ is clinically proven to help prevent the absorption of dietary fats by the body and hence limit the intake of calories, whilst maintaining a healthy digestion.

Liposinol™ has no known harmful side effect. Liposinol™ contains Litramine, a patented fibre complex obtained from a natural plant source. By virture of Liposinol™’s mechanical fat binding action and absence of pharmacological action or effect on the human body, Liposinol™ does not cause any harmful side effect/treatment effect.

Liposinol™ is a clinically proven fat binder, which binds up to 28 % of dietary fat. Liposinol™ helps prevent the absorption of fats from the diet and hence limit the intake of calories by the body. As fat is the most calorie-dense nutrient and concentrated form of energy, the lesser fat you absorb, the fewer calories your body takes in. This means you shed off more kilos.

Also, when you incorporate Liposinol™ as part of your weight management plan, Liposinol™ binds some of the fat that you consume. Therefore, your body will tap into the stored body fat and convert the body fat for your daily energy requirement. This can result in gradual weight loss.

For the obese and the overweight, there are many benefits to reducing even just a kilo or two. Many studies show that a loss of 5% to 10% of body weight can alleviate weight-related health problems such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, cardiovascular problems and diabetes. It is important to emphasize the health benefits of 5% weight loss and to change the perception of those who reject this as an insignificant amount of weight reduction.

While it’s important to limit your food choices to those low in fat and/or calories, with the help of Liposinol™, you will find that you can still enjoy a considerable amount of healthy and hearty meals. With Liposinol™, you reduce up to 28% of your daily fat intake from food as Liposinol™ binds your dietary fat. Your appetite and food cravings will also be reduced. These mean lesser calorie intake for your body.

It depends on how committed you are to a reduced-calorie intake and daily physical activity.

According to the Medical Device Directive MDD 93/43/EEC, a medical device is amongst others defined as any article, whether used alone or in combination, intended by the manufacturer to be used for human beings for the purpose of:

Prevention, monitoring, treatment or alleviation of disease and which does not achieve its principal intended action in or on the human body by pharmacological, immunological or metabolic means, but which may be assisted in its function by such means.

Not at all! Medicinal products achieve their function via pharmacological, immunological or metabolic means and change physiological functions in the body.

Liposinol™ does not have any of the above function. Liposinol™’s packaging is clearly marked as a 'Medical Device Product', to ensure that the consumer is not confused and categorise Liposinol™ as a medicine.

In the clinical study, Liposinol™ was found to have minimal fat-soluble vitamin absorption and there is no selective binding of fat-soluble vitamins.

As a general precaution though, it is recommended to take a multivitamin supplement daily. It is however not recommended to take fat-soluble vitamins or medicines (e.g. Contraceptive Pills) within 2 hours of taking Liposinol™.

This is not unique to Liposinol™. Even Prescription medicines that inhibit fat absorption make a similar recommendation and it is also generally recommended to take a vitamin supplement with any low fat diet.
