Diet Chitosan by Source Naturals
Chitosan, a fiber derived from chitin in shellfish, is classified as a nondigestible aminopolysaccharide. Chitosan is synthesized by removing acetyl groups from chitin, through a process called deacetylation. Although the mechanism by which chitosan works is still being researched, animal studies have shown that chitosan binds with bile salts in the digestive tract, reduces the absorption of certain dietary fats (like cholesterol and oleic acid), and plays a role in maintaining healthy serum cholesterol levels in laboratory animals. (Results of animal studies may not extrapolate to humans.) When taken as part of the Maximum Metabolism Weight Loss Plan(TM), body fat may be reduced.
Suggested Use
Two capsules 1/2 hour before lunch and two capsules 1/2 hour before dinner with 8 oz of liquid. Drink at least 8 glasses of fluid daily.
Warnings
If you are pregnant, nursing, allergic to shellfish or taking any medication, consult your health care professional before using this product. Fat soluble Vitamins (A, E, D, or K), essential fatty acids or medications, should be taken 4 hours before or after ingesting Chitosan to ensure absorption. Take this product with large amounts of fluid. Without drinking enough liquid, the product may cause constipation. Discontinue use if intestinal discomfort or constipation occurs.
Source Naturals
Source Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individuals potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life simply didnt exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula®, now the industrys #1 immune support product.
