The anticipation for a new diet pill is over as the FDA recently approved Alli (pronounced Al-eye). It’s the weight loss newcomer that is quickly finding its place on drug store shelves. What makes Alli stand out amongst a crowded field of other diet pills? Namely, it’s the first FDA-approved diet pill available without a prescription. Alli is actually a low-dose version of Xenical, a prescription drug that successfully assists obese individuals lose weight. Xenical is taken under a doctor’s care while following a low-calorie, low-fat diet. Alli has the same active ingredient (orlistat), but in a much lower dosage, and is available without the prescription.

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. lose more weight with alli

The alli program starts with your commitment to adopting healthy eating habits. It combines the only over-the-counter, FDA-approved weight loss aid with an individually tailored support plan, to help achieve gradual and healthy weight loss. When you take alli along with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet, you can lose about 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 - if 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. We encourage you to read more and see if you agree with the statements at the end of this brochure, before you buy alli. More information can be found at myalli.com. Or, talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or dietitian to help determine if you’re ready.
how does it work?-alli blocks about 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 when 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 oil on top of a pizza. And these treatment effects can be lessened if you stick to reduced-calorie, low-fat meals that average 15 grams of fat per meal.
