Chitosan is a naturally occurring substance that is chemically similar to the plant fiber cellulose. Unlike plant fiber however, Chitosan is "magnetically" attracted to lipids and has the ability to significantly prevent fat in the digestive tract from being absorbed.

Chitosan has no caloric value, which is a very important property for any weight-loss product. Chitosan affects fat in the stomach before it has a chance to become metabolized. It dissolves in the stomach and is converted into a gel which "traps" fat, thereby preventing its absorption and subsequent storage.

Chitosan also inhibits bad cholesterol and promotes healing of ulcers and lesions. Chitosan acts as an antacid and helps to control high blood pressure. It may treat and prevent irritable bowel syndrome and helps to prevent constipation. It is a calcium enhancer and bone strengthener. Chitosan also reduces blood levels of uric acid (which causes gout) and has been reported to have anti-tumor properties.
