Alli Weight-Loss Aid, Orlistat 60mg Capsules, 120-Count Refill Pack

Release Date: 2007-06-13

Sales rank: 25

Alli is the only FDA approved over-the- counter weight-loss aid for overweight adults

Alli is more than a pill; it's an innovative weight-loss program that includes an individually tailored online plan that teaches people healthier eating habits

Alli binds to gastric and pancreatic lipases blocking absorption of 25% of consumed fat

Undigested fat is excreted from the body instead of being turned into fat

Alli, in combination with a reduced calorie low fat diet ,can help an individual lose 50% more weight than with dieting alone

Unlike many products currently on the market, Alli slimming pills only work in the digestive tract, which is the area where your body absorbs various aspects of the food which you eat. By only acting in this area, there are no side affects to for example your heart rate, brain activity, sleep patterns, nerves or your body clock. The active ingredients in the pill allow you to control the production of enzymes in the intestine which are used to breakdown and convert food into fatty acids. By reducing the level of the enzyme in the intestine it is possible to directly reduce the amount of fatty acids absorbed. After the enzymes have absorbed as much material as possible, the remaining food elements are excreted as pure fat. While many other weight loss products require medical supervision and medical advice, Alli has been proven to be safe and reliable, having been developed from a reduced dosage of the earlier prescription weight loss drug Orlistat. Clinical trials have shown the immediate impact upon the body mass index as soon as treatment begins, and while there are mild side effects, these are fully controllable. Another vital benefit of Alli Weight Loss is the fact that the treatment only targets the fat content of food, and the absorption of fatty acids. Due to the direct influence on the level of a particular enzyme in the intestine, other food content such as carbohydrates and proteins will be untouched, and the levels absorbed not affected by taking Alli pills. This is a direct contradiction to many other slimming products which can suppress the intake of all food, thereby robbing the body not only of fatty content, but also vital carbohydrates and proteins - thereby directly affecting the person ability to work, exercise, etc.

your part and our part
alli is a 60mg orlistat capsule. But it's more than just a pill. It's an innovative weight loss program that works with you, not for you. alli can help you lose 50% more weight than dieting alone, but you have to do your part by changing the way you eat.

loose more weight with alli
The alli program starts with your commitment to adopting healthy eating habits. It combines the only FDA approved, over-the-counter weight loss product with an individually tailored support plan to help you achieve gradual and healthy weight loss. When you take alli along with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet, you can lose 50% more weight than dieting alone. For example, instead of losing 10 pounds with diet alone, you can lose 15 pounds with the alli program.

alli is safe - it works in your digestive system, not in your heart or brain. It will not cause jitters, sleeplessness, or a racing heart. You can't just try alli - you have to commit to it.

what weight loss to expect
how does it work

alli blocks 25% of the fat you eat
Typically, enzymes in your intestines break down fat from food so your body can absorb the fat. But the active ingredient in alli attaches to some of these enzymes and prevents them from digesting about a quarter of the fat you eat. Because undigested fat can't be absorbed, it passes out of your body instead of turning into calories.


does alli have side effects?
The main side effect occurs when you eat a meal with too much fat while taking alli. If so much fat is blocked that your stool can't absorb it, you might have side effects. Because they are not harmful, we call them "treatment effects." These include loose or more frequent stools, an urgent need to go to the bathroom, or gas with an oily discharge. The excess fat that passes out of your body is in no way harmful. In fact, you may recognize it as something that looks like the oil on top of a pizza. Treatment effects can be lessened if you stick to reduced-calorie, low-fat meals that average 15 grams of fat per meal.


important usage information
  • Don't use alli if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you have had an organ transplant, or if you are taking cyclosporine.

  • Do not take alli if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in alli capsules.

  • Ask a doctor before using alli if you are taking warfarin.

  • Do not take alli if you are not overweight.

  • You can take up to three alli capsules per day, one with each meal containing fat.

  • Take a multivitamin daily while taking alli capsules to ensure adequate absorption of vitamins A, D, E, K, and beta carotene.

What is Cholesterol?

You already know that some cholesterol is good and some is bad. But did you know that there are clear guidelines for cholesterol levels for average Americans and newly established guidelines for high-risk patients?

Cholesterol is:

  • Produced by the liver and other organs and also furnished in the diet through such food as meats, poultry, fish and dairy products.
  • Required by the body to insulate nerves, make cell membranes, and produce certain hormones.
  • Carried through the body by lipoproteins in the blood.
Two Types of Cholesterol
The Good The Bad
HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) transports cholesterol from the body's tissues to the liver and other sites, where it may be broken down and excreted by the body. HDL cholesterol is commonly known as "good" cholesterol. LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) transports cholesterol from the liver to the rest of the body. LDL cholesterol is commonly known as "bad" cholesterol.

How to Control Your Cholesterol

Many Americans have succeeded in lowering their LDL "bad" cholesterol through lifestyle changes. Eating right, exercising, and relaxing are some of the basic lifestyle changes you can make to improve your overall health. Your doctor can test your cholesterol level, or you can test yourself with a kit you can purchase at your pharmacy.

The National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) identifies LDL cholesterol as the primary target of cholesterol management. Clinical research has shown that elevated LDL, the "bad" cholesterol, is the primary cause of coronary heart disease.

New Guidelines for High Risk Heart Patients Can Save Lives
Every year 1.2 million Americans have a new or repeat heart attack. A new set of guidelines has been released that specifically targets these high risk Americans. The new NCEP guideline determines that high-risk heart patients should lower their LDL "bad" cholesterol to a rock bottom 70. The previous NCEP guideline was 100.

LDL Cholesterol Level Guideline (mg/dl)
<100 (70 for high risk patients) Optimal
100-129 Near optimal/above optimal
130-159 Borderline high
160-189 High
>190 Very high
Total Cholesterol Level
<200 Desirable
200-239 Borderline High
>240 High
HDL Cholesterol Level
<40 Low
>60 High

Lactose-free; calorie-free

Includes Daily Digestive Tracker to help track progress toward a strong and healthy digestive system

What is Align?
Align is a daily dietary supplement that works naturally to help build and maintain a healthy, balanced digestive system. Align is an easy-to-swallow capsule that you take just once a day, every day to help even out the ups and downs of common digestive upsets such as constipation, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, urgency, gas, and bloating. Align capsules contain Bifantis, a unique probiotic strain that has been clinically proven to build and maintain a strong, healthy digestive system.



Each easy-to-swallow capsule helps even out the ups and downs of common digestive upsets.
How Align Works
Not having enough "good" bacteria in the digestive system can lead to occasional digestive upsets. Align helps restore the balance of "good" bacteria to build and maintain a strong, healthy digestive system. This gives you a natural defense against occasional intestinal imbalances and the roller coaster of digestive problems, such as constipation or diarrhea.

What is Bifantis?
Bifantis is the natural probiotic ingredient in Align. The specific and pure strain of Bifantis found in Align--Bifidobacterium infantis 35624--is clinically proven to build and maintain a strong, healthy digestive system. It does this by helping establish a healthy gastrointestinal flora. Align is the only probiotic supplement that contains Bifantis.

Who Should Take Align?
People who occasionally suffer from one or more of the following common digestive upsets would benefit from taking Align:

  • Diarrhea
  • Constipation
  • Bloating
  • Gas
  • Urgency
  • Abdominal discomfort
If you experience these common digestive upsets, taking Align could help restore the natural balance of your digestive system and get you back on track for normal digestive health. Taking Align even when you are not experiencing the ups and downs of digestive imbalance gives you a natural defense by promoting a healthy and strong digestive system.



An included Daily Digestive Tracker will help you track your progress.
What to Expect From Align
People respond individually to dietary supplements such as Align, and everybody follows a slightly different adjustment curve. No matter where you start, as your body begins to naturally adapt to the Align dietary supplement, you should see your balance improve with time.

Because the experience of occasional digestive upsets varies from person to person, your body may respond somewhat faster or slower to Align. Although many people feel the full benefit of Align by four weeks, it does take some people six to eight weeks to build the maximum defense against common digestive upsets.

If you consistently have days during which you often feel bothered with moderate to severe upsets, this could be a sign of a serious illness, and you should consult your healthcare professional.

With your Align purchase, you'll receive a Daily Digestive Tracker that will help you track your progress toward a strong and healthy digestive system. Most people notice an improvement in digestive balance in a short time--usually within two or three weeks of taking Align. And usually by weeks seven and eight, they're receiving the full benefits of Align, and experiencing the freedom that comes with having a balanced, strong, and healthy digestive system.
