Eclipse 2000 Chitosan

Eclipse 2000 Chitosan - The Fat Blocker! Chitosan is a natural fiber used by dieters to prevent absorption of digested dietary fats. Due to its positive ionic charge, Chitosan may have the ability to attract and discharge these fats and prevent it from accumulating as body fat.

Chitosan, which is the deacetylated form of chitin, is derived from the shells of crustaceans. This unique compound contains a strong positive charge, which causes it to bind to negatively charged substances such as fats. Chitin supplementation in animal studies has been shown to bind to fat in the intestine, thus blocking absorption and helping maintain healthy cholesterol levels.(1) This supplement may provide a caloric decrease via its fat blocking properties which may result in weight loss.
