CHITOSAN

It is not always easy to eat a balanced diet, and from time to time we will give in to temptation. Fatty food products are all too often appetising and tasty, but they are bad for the figure!

Chitosan is a food supplement designed to accompany a weight loss programme within a planned diet because of its ingredient Nopal, consisting of Chitosan and Nopal:

• Chitosan is a fibre obtained from the shells of crustaceans, and has lipophilic properties: in other words, it is attracted to body fats, which it captures in its network before being eliminated through natural channels.
• Nopal is a fibre extracted from the Prickly Pear plant, and helps absorb some of the fats and sugars from our diet, thus reducing calorific intake and favouring slimming as part of a controlled diet. As the fibre cannot be assimilated by the body, it is eliminated naturally.
