Alli is produced by pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline and is a lower strength version of the prescription only diet drug Xenical<\/strong> and includes the active ingredient Orlistat<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The active ingredient (Orlistat) blocks a percentage of fat (around 27%) from being digested and absorbed by your stomach from each and every meal.<\/p>\n This undigested fat can then pass naturally through your body and leave via bowel movements.<\/p>\n Clinical research estimates that for every 2lbs you lose from your own weight loss efforts Alli can help you lose an additional 1lb, effectively increasing your results by 50%.<\/p>\n Quite simply Alli does what it says on the box and the United States Government (FDA) Agrees. It is arguably the diet pill to eclipse all others.<\/p>\n After its successful introduction into the United States in the fall of 2007 many dieters complained of a side effect that has been since coined the Alli Oops<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n The active ingredient in Alli (Orlistat) blocks fat from being digested. Undigested fat is orange in appearance and rather gooey. This orange goo can leave your body at a moments notice and sometimes without warning, best described as anal leakage. An inconvenience rather than a side effect – better described as a treatment effect.<\/p>\n The criticism Alli received over this was rather harsh and a contradiction, if you possess a modicum of intelligence you will realize that it is better to expel excess body fat (albeit in rather unpleasant fashion) than carry it round beneath your clothes.<\/p>\n Three to six months of inconvenience is a small price to pay for getting your body back into shape.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n If it were not for the issues surrounding anal leakage and the fact that Alli is not available to buy over the counter in Canadian pharmacies it would be higher rated.<\/p>\n The form identifies if you are suitable candidate, Alli is best used by people who have a high Body Mass Index (typically 28 or above)<\/p>\n Alli is also not suitable for anyone under the age of 18 or pregnant or nursing mothers.<\/p>\n As yet Alli cannot be purchased over the counter in Canada – but is available for Canadians to buy online via selected authorized web based stockists.<\/p>\n Perhaps the most convenient way for Canadian customers to purchase is via UK authorized and registered stockist Chemist Direct – This route has been ceased.<\/p>\n You are less likely to experience the anal leakage issue with Proactol as bowel movements are more solid.<\/p>\n Proactol is also non prescription and available to buy without restriction.<\/p>\n Proactol has been available for several years and remains the closest rival to the GlaxoSmithKline product. In our opinion there is clear daylight between Proactol XS and Alli<\/p>\nHow Does Alli Work<\/strong><\/h2>\n
