While Fybogel is generally used to treat constipation in Irritable Bowel Syndrome, it may also have some secondary benefits such as weight loss. A large number of people who take Fybogel notice that they lose weight. Additionally, some of those who exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet whilst taking Fybogel experience faster weight loss than would be expected.
Sometimes, excess weight can be caused by a build-up of faecal matter inside the body. Fybogel is one of the safest ways to clear out the fecal matter from inside your colon. This can cause some weight loss and can also make the stomach appear less bloated. However, Fybogel will not cause you to lose any fat content, including cellulite, in the process. Therefore, Fybogel should not be used as a substitute for a healthy diet and exercise.
What are alternatives to Fybogel for weight loss?
Fybogel can aid weight loss. However, it will not cause you to lose any fat content. If you are exploring possible medication to help you lose weight, weight loss pills (diet pills) may be an option. Xenical (Orlistat) can be used in conjunction with a balanced diet to help you achieve a healthy weight. Xenical works by stopping the body from breaking down the fat you consume. This means that the fat you eat will pass through your digestive system, without being absorbed by the body.
