Puritan’s Pride Chitosan is a dietary supplement with chitosan (chitosan fibres) – a special kind of dietary fibre that blocks the fat absorption from food, consequently reducing caloric intake in diet.

Chitosan – a polysaccharide obtained from chitin; a natural substance comprised of chitin fibres extracted from shells of marine crustaceans. Chitosan is a kind of dietary fibre and an ingredient promoting weight loss by: supporting fat digestibility, reducing caloric intake and causing the feeling of fullness by filling the stomach.

This natural component consumed after a meal binds fat that reach the stomach with food and prevents its absorption via villi in the small intestine by binding with it in the proportion of 1 gram of chitosan to 4-10 grams of fat. Undigested molecules of fat bound by chitosan are naturally excreted by the organism, not posing any danger for health.

To sum up, Puritan’s Pride Chitosan is a preparation facilitating weight loss and burning fat by properties inhibiting the process of fat absorption and thus the amount of consumed calories. In addition, it reduces the amount of consumed foot (appetite) by filling the stomach and a strong feeling of fullness (it is important to drink then a lot of water).

The product is intended for overweight people, suffering from obesity, eating disorders and for every person wishing to have a shapely, aesthetically pleasing silhouette with a slight amount of body fat.
