Chitosan 250 mg

Absorbed fat and cholesterol are excreted through the bowel, which may improve bowel function. Moreover, chitosan may facilitate the depletion of excess body fat in humans under free-living conditions. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) helps activate chitosan in the stomach and intestine. It is important to take pure ascorbic acid to enhance the effects of chitosan. Buffered or mineral ascorbates will not work as well.

Supplements to be taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise program. Results may vary.
