Herbalife ShapeWorks® Chitosan Fibre Complex Capsules

Chitosan is an amazing dietary fibre, blended with Fenugreek to assist with the maintenance of regularity and suppression of appetite as part of a kilojoule/calorie controlled eating plan.

Contains LipoSan Ultra, a patented form of Chitosan that becomes soluble in stomach acid and works faster. This means you can take this product right before you eat, not one hour before. Each capsule contains Chitosan 330.0mg and Fenugreek powder 110.0mg.

This scientifically advanced formula is derived from all-natural ingredients and is designed to assist with the maintenance of regularity and suppression of appetite as part of a kilojoule (calorie) controlled eating plan. Scientific and nutritional experts recommend an increased consumption of dietary fibre and lower intake of fat and calories to help maintain good health. Unfortunately the typical western diet tends to be high in fat and low in fibre-rich foods.

What is fibre?
Fibre is the indigestible carbohydrate residue found in foods. There are two types: soluble or insoluble. Soluble is soft and mushy - for instance beans and porridge; insoluble is hard and coarse, such as wheat bran.

Which foods are high in fibre?
Natural foods are usually high in fibre i.e. wholegrains, nuts, seeds, fruit and vegetables.

What happens to fibre in the body?
It passes through the stomach into the digestive tract, and on to the large bowel intact where it absorbs water and other waste materials, then is passed as stools.

What good does fibre do?
A good intake of dietary fibre reduces the amount of time food spends in the intestinal tract. Dietary fibre can help speed up the passage of food and so assist in the removal of toxins and wastes from the body.

What is the recommended daily amount?
35 grams or higher. At present, the amount of fibre consumed in a typical Australian diet is just 20-25grams.

What happens if not enough fibre is consumed?
Research shows that a lack of fibre in the diet is the root cause of several health challenges.

How can ShapeWorks® Chitosan Fibre Complex'" help?
The unique blend of active fibres and other natural ingredients can help maintain the process of elimination and assist in the emulsification of fat for digestion. They can also help curb your desire to snack.

Key Ingredient Properties

Directions for use

Adults one capsule, three times a day, just before your meal.

Unlike other nutrients, dietary fibre is not absorbed in the small intestine. Instead, it passes through the gastrointestinal tract, some of it undergoing change in the larger intestine, and in doing so it helps promote healthy bowel function.

Drink plenty of water and increase fibre in the diet.
