Most of the food you eat contains some level of fat, which your body absorbs and stores for later use. These pills ensure that a percentage of the fat you eat passes through your body without being absorbed and stored by your body. Doctors sometimes prescribe them to people who have a lot of weight to lose.

Most people can safely take fat blockers and use them to help to speed up weight loss. However, to lose weight effectively they must be used in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet, and for the best results a regular exercise routine. If you are not prepared to follow a healthy, low calorie diet you should not bother taking these diet pills.

If you have a pre-existing medical condition it is wise to consult your doctor before taking fat blockers. Your GP will advice you about any side effects and any potential adverse interactions with the medication you are taking to treat your condition.
