Alli -is it among the best weight loss pills ever?

By: Shaikh MD Alli is the next big weight loss pill taking the markets by storm. It has a compound called orlistat. This is a drug designed to tackle obesity. It is being marketed as one of the best weight loss pills (fat burning pills) ever.
It has a primary function of preventing absorption of fats in the gut. This therefore causes a reduction in absorption of calories.  It is intended to be used in conjunction with a physician-supervised reduced-calorie diet and exercise. This drug works by inhibiting an enzyme in the gut and therefore prevents fat from breaking down and eventually getting absorbed. This results in decreased fat absorption and eventually decreased caloric intake. When on this drug one needs to exploit this situation to his benefit by increasing caloric output (by exercising). This way one can easily lose a few pounds. This is a realistic goal and it is for this reason why Alli is being considered to be on of the best weight loss pills ever.
It is important to understand that this is one of the few “best fat burning pills” out there which is FDA approved for use (now over the counter). Clinical trials have clearly shown that between 35.5% and 54.8% of subjects on Orlistat achieved a 5% or greater decrease in body mass (but not all of this mass was necessarily fat); Between 16.4% and 24.8% achieved at least a 10% decrease in body mass and 37% had a reduction in the incidence of type II diabetes (this is a big plus). For some of the subjects they were happy until after orlistat was stopped- this is when a number of subjects regained upto 35% of the weight they had lost.
As with all medicine this drug also has some side effects and although this is one of the best weight loss pills (best fat burning pills) out there it also does have some side effects. Only 50% of these last over a week. These include Steatorrhea; Flatulence; Frequent bowel movements; Poor absorption of fat soluble vitamins (A,D,E,K and beta carotene); It may interact with some other drugs like cyclosporine.
Before you do commence this drug it is important to consult your doctor to see if you do not have any contraindications to the use of olistat (alli). Also when you are on this drug it is important to take some supplements with this. Experience with this drug has been extensive and detailed and for this reason it is being considered as one of the best weight loss pills (best fat burning pills) ever. It should be used like other products to get you kickstarted in losing weight so that you do not have to be dependent on this for life.
