Proactol

TYPE

Proactol Natural Ingredient Fat Binder

Contains Non-Soluble and Soluble Fibers

When Proactol non-soluble fibres come into contact with dietary fats they bind with them to form a fluid gel around the fat. This makes the fat complex too large to be absorbed and it passes naturally through your body. Proactol has been clinically proven to bind up to 28% of dietary fats.

Proactol soluble fibers bind with bile acids to create a viscous solution which slows down digestion and slows down absorption of glucose. Your stomach finds the viscous solution harder to digest and it remains in your stomach longer than an ordinary meal usually would. This gives a feeling of being full for much longer.

Proactol can provide initial weight loss support by binding dietary fat, decreasing binge eating and suppressing appetite.

MONEY BACK GUARANTEE

A money back guarantee is offered on Proactol. The Proactol guarantee is good for 6 months from purchase. Take the product as directed for 120 days and if not satisfied return any unused product for a full refund of the purchase price. There is a $20 processing fee for refunds.

Long term guarantees are usually a good indication of the manufacturer's intentions. In this case, the 6 month guarantee on offer by the manufacture of Proactol is quite comprehensive.

The 120 day period might seem quite long to qualify for a refund, but Proactol is a not a product with overnight results. Give it time and the product can deliver good results.

Almost all products sold online have guarantees. These tend to be 30 days. Keep in mind that many payment processors have this 30 day guarantee as one of their terms and conditions. So the guarantee the manufacturer offers might not necessarily be their own choice.

In this case, it's obvious the 6 month period is the manufacturer's own decision regarding their guarantee.

CUSTOMER SERVICE

Very good. The customer service representatives are always polite and knowledgeable about the product.

Proactol Active Ingredients

Opuntia Ficus Indica

Commonly known as the Prickly Pear, Opuntia Ficus Indica contains fibers (both soluble and insoluble) which have a lipophillic property. This is a fancy way of saying the fibers are fat-friendly and like to bond to fat molecules. This is where we get the term Fat Binder.

Once the fibers bind with the fat molecules, your small intestine body can no longer absorb the mix, and the whole thing passes out of your body in your stools.

Proactol contains no artificial colouring, artificial flavouring, preservatives or salt and is free from allergens. Proactol is made from 100% natural and organic plant extracts and is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.

Although Proactol is a natural weight loss supplement, as with any medication of this kind, there are some restrictions on it's use, particularly:

Children under 12 years old

Use during pregnancy or breast feeding

Use by individuals with Kidney Stones or other Kidney Disease

Use by individuals with Diabetes

Use by individuals taking Cholesterol control medications

In these cases, use of Proactol should ONLY be after consultation with a qualified medical professional.

There are some concerns that Proactol could also bind valuable nutrients and vitamins, passing these through your system. This is a common indication with fat binders and use of an additional vitamin supplement is indicated.

Proactol works in two ways, first by binding dietary fat causing it to pass though your body and secondly by binding bile acids into thick, viscous liquids. These liquids are hard for your body to digest, so you have the feeling of being "full" for longer. Feeling full means you don't feel the need to eat, so Proactol effectively reduces your food intake.

Proactol has received some encouraging press and Doctor endorsements including a recommendation from Dr. Adam Carey, leading nutritionist and nutritional adviser to both the England rugby and cricket teams. You can read what Dr. Carey had to say about Proactol below:

+ Dr. Adam Carey on Proactol

Being overweight has a huge impact on our health, yet levels of obesity continue to escalate and we are failing to do anything about it. This new treatment, called Proactol, could provide a kick start for those who find it hard take control of their weight.

Taken after food, Proactol, made of non-soluble and soluble fibres, immediately attaches to fats found floating on the surface of the stomach. This creates a fat-fibre complex that is too large to be absorbed in the small intestine, allowing the fat to pass naturally through the body.

Ideally people need to adopt a healthy lifestyle with plenty of exercise and a balanced diet, however, we need to recognise that many people find it hard to take that first step.

Proactol can provide some initial support by binding dietary fat, decreasing food cravings, suppressing appetite and reducing blood cholesterol.
