How does Xenical work?
Unlike other diet pills and weight loss treatments that affect the body's metabolism, Xenical works by blocking lipase enzymes in the body that convert fat into fat tissue. Xenical can prevent one third of all fat intake to go undigested. The undigested fat is then flushed naturally from the body. For best weight loss results, Xenical should be accompanied by a low fat diet and exercise plan.
Who should taken Xenical?
Only people who suffer from obesity (a BMI of 30 or more), who are overweight (a BMI of 25 to 30) or have or at risk of weight related health problems, such as high blood pressure, diabetes or high cholesterol, should take Xenical.
