The Xenical Advantage: How to Use the Remarkable New FDA-Approved Drug to Lose Weight Faster-And Keep It Off Safely and Effectively

Xenical is a lipase inhibitor that acts in the digestive tract rather than systemically. What that means is that Xenical goes through the stomach and to the intestines to do it's work of blocking the absorption of fat. On the other hand, systemic drugs that act as appetite suppressants work on the central nervous system. Dr. Foreyt gives an interesting historical account of Xenical from the experimental stage and double blind studies to clinical trials to the use of Xenical by foreign countries and finally to the use of Xenical as a prescription medication used for the treatment of obesity in the US. Xenical is the trade name for Orlistat. Dr. Foreyt recommends joining some program where you will receive emotional support and camaraderie such as Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig. He points out that while it's okay to join one of these programs, it is not absolutely necessary for your weight loss success. Foreyt says another possibility would be to see a Registered Dietitian (RD). An RD can help you come up with an eating plan and food choices that will be healthy and nutritionally sound as well as producing weight loss. The Xenical Advantage is more than a book about Xenical. It is an excellent diet and weight loss resource with information and helps. I highly recommend this book to all dieters. From my favorite chapter, the exercise chapter, I'd like to share 3 quotes: 1. Love how you move. 2. Take advantage of the mind-body connection to...3. Link forever in your mind the words 'exercise' and 'diet.' The Xenical Advantage: How To Use The Remarkable New FDA-Approved Drug to Lose Weight Faster and Keep it off Safely and Effectively is a must read. I only mentioned a few of the many jewels you will find in the Xenical Advantage. You'll have to read the book to search for your own jewels.Bette L. Hall CMA, NHC

This is a wonderful book for anyone who is using Xenical. In fact, I had a prescription for Xenical for 7 months before I found this book. It contains information on the background of the drug, how to properly use it, suggested meal plans, and is just a general excellent resource. I highly recommend it. I truly believe that you shouldn't use Xenical unless you have this book.

We have been supplying Xenical online for over 12 months, and it is great that we now have a user-friendly publication that we can recommend to our customers. Up until the Xenical Advantage became available, we only had consumer information leaflets, which only give a brief overview of Xenical. The book is well researched, easy to read, and is a must-have companion to anyone who is taking Xenical and really does want to lose weight. Philip Thornton. www.pharmcom.com
