how is alli different from other weight loss products?
alli is not a dietary supplement. It is an FDA approved weight loss product. Orlistat (the active ingredient in alli) has been extensively studied and safely taken by millions of people worldwide. Americans spend an estimated $33 billion on weight loss products and programs that in some cases are unregulated and unsafe. The absence of a proven safe and effective OTC product for weight loss has been a void in the nation’s arsenal of weapons to fight the overweight and obesity epidemic. Orlistat is the only weight loss product approved by the FDA to go over-the-counter. Orlistat can help people lose 50% more weight than with dieting alone. That means if you could lose 10 pounds with a diet, you could lose 15 pounds working with alli. Individual results may vary.
