Product Description

Size: 240 Caps

Chitosan is a dietary fiber derived from the shells of crustaceans that has been shown in non-clinical studies to bind to fat and cholesterol in the digestive tract. NOW Chitosan contains LipoSan Ultra, a patented high-density form of Chitosan that binds up to five times more fat than conventional Chitosan according to laboratory testing. A published clinical study has demonstrated that LipoSan Ultra , taken as directed, may aid in the support of healthy body weight and serum cholesterol levels already within the normal range. NOW has also included Chromium in this formula. Chromium is an essential trace mineral that works with insulin to support healthy blood glucose levels and plays an important role in the proper utilization of protein, fat and carbohydrates.

Cholesterol has dropped September 30, 2010
Size Name:240 Caps|Amazon Verified Purchase
I had an annual cholesterol test, and it was high as it always is. The doctor warned me again that the meds I take will harm my liver, and liver test also was elevated. I had to find a way to lower the levels. I started taking both Chitosan and Red Yeast Rice. After 3 months, I had another blood test done. After I have been taking this combination for just 3 months, my cholesterol had dropped 40 points. I have had only one test since starting the supplements, so can not say for sure if it was a fluke, or if it truly does reduce the cholesterol level. I do believe it is helping. This was my second batch of supplements, and until I find that my blood test proves differently, I will continue to take this combination. Your results may differ from mine.

I take this before eating fatty foods and I noticed that my weight has
been staying a few pounds below normal. It also helps with digestion and
I've been told cholesterol as well. I like it. Not sure what it's actually
doing but it's all been positive.

Fish breath May 12, 2011
By psarro
Size Name:240 Caps|Amazon Verified Purchase
Soon after I take this, I get fish breath/burps. They go away within a half hour so just be careful with the timing. Haven't seen any weight loss yet but will keep trying.
