Uses

 

Alli is prescribed to those who may be considered overweight or have a BMI that is in the obese range. Alli acts as a weight loss medication. It works by inhibiting the amount of fat that is absorbed by the body. Alli targets the intestines of the body. At least 25 percent of the fat that you consume is prevented from being immersed by the body.

 

The fat that is not taken up is excreted via bowel movements. Alli can act as an aid to those who are attempting to lose weight. It can also help to prevent weight that has already been shed from reappearing on the body.

 

Alli is most effective when it is taken as an added measure to a health plan that already contains diet and exercise.

 

Any further gains to your physical condition can be discovered by looking for medical assistance from the appropriate authorities.
