Chitosan Versus Xenical

[SirWanksalot]

Below is a link to an article recently published by "Drumlib" at his site www.drumlib.com . What I find interesting is that he thinks chitosan (fat blocker) does work if taken correctly. His other write ups on Ephedrine / Caffeine / Aspirin Stacking are required reading (IMO) for those wanting to understand how thermogenics work....

Chitosan Versus Xenical

Is chitosan just another scam, or does it really block a significant amount of fat like Xenical? And if chitosan is a scam, why does Roche have a patent on it?

The problem with this study, however, is that they used such a LOW dose of chitosan (890 mg three times daily). Interestingly, the authors acknowledge that it is already known that low doses of chitosan do not work:

There's you're answer from the article. IMO chitosan does work if taking a large amount when eating extremely fatty foods (pizza). Don't expect 1-2 pills of chitosan to catch most of the fat when you're downing a whole pizza. Adjust your amount of chitosan with the type food your eating. I also don't suggest taking chitosan everyday. Take it just the days of and before you are going to eat a very fatty food.
