Chitisol Review

What You Should Know

Chitosol is a fat binding product whose name comes from the ingredient Chitosan. The product claims to prevent your body from absorbing all the fat you eat and thereby allowing you to lose weight without making any changes to your diet. There is no research to substantiate this claim.

Chitosol is different from its competing fat blocking products in that you are supposed to take in five minutes before your meal. They do not specify any amount of weight loss you should expect, though they do say that you should feel more energy as the fat sheds away. The makers of Chitsol claim that the proprietary blend allows the fat to be absorbed before it hits the digestive system.

A bottle of Chitosol is available online from the manufacturer, Gold Shield USA, for $34.60 for a 120 count bottle. If you are not completely satisified with the product, there is a 90-money back gaurantee.

List of Ingredients

The ingredients in Chitosol are: Vitamin C, Chitosan, Phaseolamin, Green Tea Leaf Extract, American Ginseng Root Extract, Gelatin, Cellulose, Stearic Acid, Magnesium Stearate, Silica.

Product Features

Product emphasis lies on the main ingredient, chitosan, which is known to be a fat binder. There are some scientists who believe this is not true, but there are many who support it. Chitosan comes from the exoskeletons of crustaceans, and therefore is not for those with allergies to shellfish. There is one study that showed Chitosan only blocked ten fat calories per day, but this study does not pertain to the product itself as a whole. The use of Green Tea Extract is another item worth noting because studies have shown its ability to assist with long term weight loss.

Conclusion

This product may sound like the dieter’s dream as it claims you can lose weight without making any substantial diet changes. While it does contain ingredients that have been proven to assist weight loss, it should be known the only way to lose weight and maintain good health is to eat a balanced diet and exercise. Dieters should practice caution and use their own judgment when trying do decide to use this product because of the lack of emphasis on a healthy diet with exercise.
