3 달 전에, 미국에서 일하고 있는 친구와 가진 MSN에서 간담하고 있었다. 그녀가 지금 막 새로운 체중 감소 환약을 샀다는 것을, Alli 말되었다. 그녀는 체중 감소 환약의 팬이 아니었다. 이렇게, 무엇이 진짜로 그녀를 이번에 Alli에게 시험을 주도록 납득시키는가? 나는 그것에 대한 약간 연구를 하는 것을 결정했다.
Alli가 GlaxoSmithKline (GSK)에 의해 제조된ㄴ다는 것을 알아내는, 제약품의 넓은 포트홀리로를 가진 주요한 건강 관리 회사. 나의 유년기 마음에 드는 음료, Ribena는 GSK에 의해 역시 행해졌. 유명한 Alli는 맹방, 무게를 잃을 것을 당신이 도와 협동자를 위한 필요에서 온다. 낱말 Alli는 "맹방"로 이 케이스 발음된다.
Alli를 그것에 관하여 다른 체중 감소 제품 그리고 실제로 만드는 무엇이 중요한 이유 I blog와 다른 저것은 이다 Alli는 미국에 있는 카운터에 판매될 식품 의약국 (FDA)가 안전한 주먹 및 현재 간주한 유일한 규정식 약이다 (처방전의 필요 없이). 미국 시장에 다른 2개의 FDA-approved 무게 손실 약은 현재 Xenical와 Meridia이다, 그러나 둘 다 처방전에서만 유효하다. alli의 다른 중요한 차별은 주문을 받아서 만들어진 계획으로 온다 이다. 환약은 시동기 장비로 온다 원조하기 위하여는 그들의 규정식에 있는 지방질을 집에서 찾아내는 방법을 그리고 이해해 언제 밖으로 먹는. 이 계획은 체중 감소로 성공하기 위하여 고객에게 지원을 해주도록 디자인되었다.
alli가 카운터에 판매되기 때문에, 그것은 유효 성분 Xenical의 단지 절반 그와 같이 포함한다. 그렇습니다, 당신은 구매될 수 있는)다고 안전하게 그것이 보다는 능률 50% 보다 적게 현재 베스트셀러 규정식 약 Xenical (처방전으로서만 추정할 수 있다. Xenical는 (Orlistat로 너무 아십시오) 고명한 뚱뚱하 막는 약이다.
Alli가 어떻게 작동하는지 당신이 생각해 보는 경우에, 여기에서 당신은 간다: Alli는 식사로 가지고 가야 한다. 그것은 췌장 리파제, 내장에 있는 트리글리세라이드를 나누는 효소를 금하기 덕분에 작동한다. 이 효소 없이, 규정식에서 트리글리세라이드는 흡수에서 막히고 소화되지 않는 배설된다. 평신도 기간에서는, alli는 당신 몸이 흡수할 수 있는 규정식 지방질 양을 제한해서 무게를 잃을 것을 돕는 뚱뚱한 차단제 환약이다 먹고 있는 동안. 막히는 지방질은 몸을 통해서 자연적으로 통과될 것이다.
GSK에 따르면, alli는 소모되는 어떤의 지방질 소화에서 효소를 멈춘다. Alli는 소화 대위와 이 유일성 보유에서서만 안으로 기능 항진과 침착하지 못함과 같은 다른 규정식 환약 제품에서 일반적인 부작용에서 소비자 안전 작동한다. The company claims that with alli, one will lose about 50% more weight than with just dieting alone. In other words, if you could lose 10 pounds through dieting, you could lose 15 pounds with Alli.
As expected, some doctors are concerned about potential abuse of Alli, especially among youths. Yes, I hope that people will not abuse it by taking alli, followed by a couple of burgers, hot dogs and French fries - and hope miracle will happen.
What I like about GSK is that the company is being honest and upfront. You can watch the video above to judge yourself. The company has marketed Alli as part of the weight loss program rather than just a magic pill. The company does not want people to try Alli for the sake of trying. It wants the dieters to be committed to a low fat diet with exercise plan. In fact, the tag line used by the company - “If you have the will, we have the power.”
One cannot be passive about using Alli. Instead, from the way the company puts in, it obligates the consumer to take an active part in the weight loss process. It is selling a program, and not just pills. The company is bold enough to make the statement - “If you are not committed to limiting your fat intake and calories as part of the program, then you should not buy alli. Not right now.”
It is important to be aware of the potential side effects. The company emphasizes that people should only take Alli when eating 15 grams of fat at each meal. A higher fat consumption could lead to gastrointestinal issues. Loose or more frequent stools, an urgent need to go to the bathroom or gas with an oily discharge are the main “side effects”. Therefore, the company recommends that people wear dark pants or bring a change of clothes to work until they adjust to the drug. Sounds like a joke, but that official statement was issued in serious note. Again, it is good that the company has been upfront about it. Come to think about it, I guess this bowel movement side effect will remind the dieters to curb their appetites.
GSK plans to sell product in Europe, under a different name, in 2008. It also plans to submit Alli for regulatory approval in Canada, Latin America, China, Australia and New Zealand before the end of 2007. As for Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore, no confirmed news yet.
Given a choice, I still think that losing weight without any drug aids is a better choice. But, for obese people, alli will be a great tool simply because it is a legitimate drug which has been tested and evaluated by a well known company, GlaxoSmithKline. It is not produced by the typical fly by night company (like the breast enhancement cream or penis enlargement magic capsules).
In short, alli is not just another weight loss product. It is part of a weight loss program for overweight people, not for everyone looking for a quick fix. Alli requires a commitment to living your life a new way as you learn to change your eating and activity habit.
Alli will be helpful, but it is not the answer. The answer is still your commitment. For those who want to give alli a try, alli is sold in these packages (available in Amazon), ranging between about $40 to $65:

Hello Mun, how you doing? Thanks for providing such useful information on diet pills. Just like you, I am a believer of losing weight “naturally” - dieting and exercising. Even though Alli has a good selling point that emphasizes their product as to be the side-kick of good diet and frequent exercise sessions, the side effects - feeling gasy and multiple trips to the bathroom, are just too unpredictable for anybody. Just out of curiosity, where do you find all these information, not just on Alli, but other sceientific facts and topics that are related to the diet pill? Good job on your research! I am very impressed. Looks like I got someone to look up to and learn.

I used to take Xenical last time whenever I eat oily stuff. It was effective but it made my tummy bloated. So now I just stick to proper dieting and exercising which helps me to maintain my current weight for almost 2 years now =)

Hi Reggie,
Normally, I spent numerous hours in doing research on the Net before I wrote articles here.
Hi Elvina, that should be the way - exercising with good diet control. Glad you discovered it too…

My name is Nikki and I work for the Dietary Supplement Information Bureau, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting accurate, science-based information about dietary supplements.
I don’t know if you are aware of this, but GlaxoSmithKline, maker of Alli, has also petitioned the FDA to treat weight loss claims as disease claims, which many in the dietary supplement industry view as an attack on competing supplement products.

Thanks for this blog, though I can’t believe you’d say something like “What I like about GSK is that the company is being honest and upfront.” I seriously doubt that a company like Glaxo is ever honest or upfront about anything.
Look around the web a bit and you’ll read about lots of other unreported dangers & side effects from this pill…and let’s not forget this is a company that covered up findings about paxil and avandia. I’m sure if there was a way they could have gotten away with not reporting certain (*ahem*) embarrassing side effects, they would have. I’ve also heard that they basically own the FDA, so the comment above about the FDA doesn’t surprise me.
I’ve been struggling with my weight for years, but I’ll stick with exercise and sensible eating (or at least trying). Glaxo already gets enough of my family’s money from their other products.
