Why Orlistat's Proven Mechanism Makes It Worth Buying
The Science Behind Orlistat's Fat Blocking Action
Orlistat works through a precise mechanism that targets lipase enzymes in your digestive system. These enzymes are responsible for breaking down dietary fat so it can be absorbed into your body. When you take orlistat 120mg with a meal, it inhibits approximately one third of these lipase enzymes, meaning roughly one third of the fat you eat cannot be digested or absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, reducing the calories your body stores from dietary fat.
Why "Approximately One Third" Matters for Your Results
Unlike stimulants that affect your brain or appetite, orlistat's mechanism is direct and measurable. By blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, a typical 15g fat meal would have around 5g less fat absorbed - that's 45 fewer calories per meal, potentially 135 fewer daily calories from fat alone. Generic orlistat 120mg at £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10) delivers this proven mechanism at the most cost-effective price point.
Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli: Same Mechanism, Different Strengths
All three products work through identical lipase inhibition, but at different potencies. Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients - the same fat-blocking mechanism at the same dose. Generic orlistat offers this proven action from £57.59 for 8 weeks with EDM10, while Xenical 120mg costs £78.29 for the same period. Alli 60mg provides the same mechanism at half strength, starting from £49.49 for 8 weeks with EDM10.
Why the Mechanism Proves Orlistat Works
The beauty of orlistat's mechanism is its direct action - you can often see evidence it's working through changes in bowel movements when dietary fat is consumed. This visible proof that unabsorbed fat is being eliminated gives confidence the medication is actively blocking fat absorption. Clinical studies consistently demonstrate this mechanism's effectiveness when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.

Maximising Orlistat's Fat Blocking Mechanism
Since orlistat blocks approximately one third of dietary fat, keeping meals low in fat (around 15g per meal) maximises comfort while the medication works. Higher fat meals mean more unabsorbed fat passing through your system, which can increase gastrointestinal side effects. The mechanism works best alongside a structured lower-fat, reduced-calorie eating plan with regular physical activity.
