Lipobind™ is a patented fibre complex
that consists of:
• Non-soluble fibres that are clinically proven to
bind dietary fats through irreversible
hydrophobic interactions
• Soluble fibres that are highly viscous in nature
that bind bile acids and slow the
absorption of glucose
Superior Fat
Binding Efficacy
• Lipobind™ absorbs dietary fats through irreversible
hydrophobic interactions. This
prevents the pancreatic lipase from digesting the fats
into smaller units that could pass
through the cellular wall of the small intestine for absorption.
• Once Lipobind™ binds dietary fats in the stomach,
the complex is too large to be
absorbed in the small intestine and is therefore eliminated
naturally through the stool. Helps Decrease Food Cravings
Once ingested, the Lipobind™ viscous soluble fibre
complex expands and
forms a stable fluid gel, this slows the rate at which
food leaves the stomach
and minimizes rapid sugar rise in the blood level known
as “Sugar-spike”.
Sugar-spike causes the body to ‘overreact’ by
releasing large amounts of insulin which in turn ‘depresses’
the blood glucose level below normal.
Helps Supress
Appetite
The Lipobind™ viscous fibre complex delays gastric
emptying by producing a
bulking effect and by increasing the viscosity of gastric
content. This
produces a prolonged period of reduced feelings of hunger
and desire to eat
following the meal.
Lowers Blood
Cholesterol
LIPObind™ also helps to reduce cholesterol by reducing
the absorption of dietary
cholesterol. Also, LIPObind forms a complex with bile
acids which are needed to
digest fat. As a result the liver uses additional cholesterol
to create more bile acid
to replace that which has passed through the body with
LIPObind™.
