How does Orlistat work?

Summary and effectiveness
Orlistat is a weight loss medication that changes how your body absorbs fat from the foods you eat. Orlistat prevents your body breaking down nearly a 1/3 of the fat that you eat.

In previous studies, Orlistat assisted 37% of participants with losing at least 5% of their body weight after twelve weeks.

Step-by-step

• Orlistat attaches to the enzymes in your digestive system (lipases)
• Orlistat stops the lipases from breaking down up to a third of the fat you’ve eaten in your meals
• The undigested fat is not absorbed into your body
• This fat is then passed out with your stools (faeces)
• The body absorbs less fat, which can assist with weight loss alongside healthy living

If one buy orlistat tablets, he/she is on the right path to over weight freedom.

How long does Orlistat take to work?

Orlistat starts to affect how you digest fat within 1 to 2 days. When taking Orlistat you need to follow a calorie-reduced diet plan and regularly exercise for the best results. The more lifestyle changes you make the more weight you may lose. Buy orlistat tablets

“Taking Orlistat alone with meals doesn’t guarantee weight loss. As with any weight loss journey, healthy eating and increasing your exercise increases the chances you will lose weight on Orlistat.”  – Dr. Bhavini Shah 

Does Orlistat burn existing fat?

Orlistat doesn’t burn any existing body fat you may have. Instead, it stops your body absorbing around a third of the fat in the foods you eat. When taking Orlistat or Xenical it’s important to follow a low-fat diet.

Is Orlistat an effective weight loss treatment?

When taken three times a day for 12 weeks you should aim to lose about 5% of your weight. Studies have shown that over 6 months some people may lose over 10% of their body weight. However, the speed and quality of Orlistat’s effects depend on your lifestyle.

While Orlistat does help reduce the amount of fat your body absorbs, it is only effective if you make complementary lifestyle changes. These include increased exercise, moderating calorie intake, eating a balanced diet, and reducing alcohol consumption. The results are also dependent on your personal commitment and motivation to losing weight. Lifestyle factors such as stress or your age also play a part.

Look for non-scale signs of weight loss rather than focusing on the scales to help track your progress.

“Although it’s a good idea to check your weight every so often, there are so many other ways you can track your health and weight loss success that do not consider the number of kilograms you weigh.” – Dr Bhavini Shah
