Fat Grabbers -
Weight Loss Dietary Supplement Notes
Dissolves and absorbs dietary fat for
elimination
Fat Grabbers should be taken before you eat a
fatty meal. It contains emulsifiers to dissolve
fat along with fiber to absorb fat and carry it
out with your bowel movements. The fiber in guar
gum and psyllium is well known to reduce
cholesterol levels. The fiber will also absorb
other material including old intestinal residue.
This formula was tested by Dr. Alvin
Segelman and was found to be 30 % more effective
than Chitocan in fat absorption. Fat Grabbers
can be taken on empty stomach to absorb
neurotoxins.
It may reduce the effect of antioxidants if
taken together (see research below).
Research: Guar gum (144 clinical trials)
has been extensively studied for cholesterol
lowering, and diabetes. In one weight loss
study, it was observed that it effected the
subjects hunger, desire to eat or estimation of
how much one could eat.1
A study involving guar gum and other dietary
fibers (pectin and cellulose) suggests that it
reduces the antioxidative effect of a carotenoid
and alpha-tocopherol (antoxidants) mixture on
LDL oxidation.2 [Hence the advisement
to not take at the same time as other
supplements]
