What is fat blocker
Fat blocker is a type of weight loss pill which blocks or reduces the absorption of dietary fat by your body. One of benefits is that they operate only within your digestive system causing no serious and harmful side effects affecting your overall health.
Fat blocker ingredients
The most popular and widely used fat blocker ingredients are Chitosan and Orlistat (known also as Xenical and Alli – a weaker version).
Chitosan
Chitosan can be found in the shells of shellfish and is claimed to have fat blocking properties. Sometimes it is also called a “fat attractor”. It is able to attract fat from digestive system decreasing body fat. These claims were not proved and FDA have issued warning letters to companies making such claims because they were not supported by any medical evidence and “fat blocking” ability appeared to be effective only in theory.

Orlistat
Orlistat, also known as Xenical and Alli, is proven to have fat blocking ability and is FDA approved. It blocks an enzyme (lipase) which is responsible for breaking down the fat making it digestible. Undigested and unabsorbed fat is excreted from the body naturally decreasing amount of calories within your diet.
Orlistat works and FDA approval is a firm prove to that. Xenical and Alli (brand names) are products using orlistat as the main ingredient where Xenical is prescription drug for obese people and Alli is non-prescription fat blocker which can be purchased freely from pharmacies all around the world.
Benefits and side effects
As mentioned before, fat blockers block the digestion and absorption of fat by body. This allows you to reduce fat and calorie intake from your diet and lose weight. Working only within your digestive system is another serious advantage because your heart, brain, internal organs are not affected allowing you to focus only on your weight loss plan and success.
There are no serious side effects involved as well. Ok, potentially you could experience few embarrassing moments because orlistat side effects include urgent bowel movement and flatulence. But this can be reduced to a minimum or avoided at all with excluding high fat content foods from your diet (which actually is a recommendation).
