Lipobind UK Fat Binders

lipobind_bigLipobind is a cactus based fat binder available online and at all high street stores like Boots the Chemist, Superdrug, Tesco and Holland and Barrett as well.

Lipobind is being marketed by Goldshield Health Care heavily through celebrity advertisements. They brand Lipobind as the top selleng slimming pill in the UK.

Does Lipobind work?

Looking at the ingredients that the Lipobind’s official website gives, you cannot judge whether it works or not as they just mention “cactus extracts based” without mentioning the exact species of cactus used in Lipobind.

But as they mention, Lipobind is clinically proven to bind up to 27% of fat in the food we eat. The clinical proof makes Lipobind look reliable, though relying on clinical proof alone isn’t wise idea before buying any slimming pill.

Lipobind is said to bind the fat calories to make them non-absorbent. When the cactus extracts make contact with the dietary fat, they attach to up to 27% of fat eaten and make fat too big to be absorbed into the body. Thus Lipobind is said to prevent absorption of up to 27% of nutritious fat and thus aid safe weight loss.

Are Fat binders like Lipobind effective weight loss aids?

Yes, one of the most popular prescription only diet pill Xenical (Orlistat 120mg) is a fat binder that blocks upto 1/3 of dietary fat from absorption. The other well known low dose Orlistat fat binder is FDA approved Alli (Orlistat 60mg) which can bind 25% of dietary fat. Both Xenical and Alli are proven to aid weight loss but both have notorious side effects.

Herbal based fat binders like Proactol and Lipobind (both cactus based) are depicted as “safe” diet pills with no side effects. This is true to a large extent. These fat binders do not have side effects.
