Chitosan is a positively charged fiber found in shellfish. When ingested, chitosan has been shown to link to fats in the digestive tract, lowering cholesterol absorption rate.
The amino acids in Chitosan are a positively charged group that bind to negatively charged ions found in fats and cholesterols. Chitosan is a highly effective bioadhesive, absorbing up to 300 fat calories when taken before meals.
Ingesting only the correct dosage is very important with Chitosan. DO NOT consume more then six grams a day, preferably in doses immediately before meals.
Its propensity to bind with negatively charged ions allows it link to fat soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K). If taken in higher quantities, chitosan can reduce the bodies absorption of these essential nutrients. Orovo recommends that you consult a physician before you begin taking any new health supplement blend.
