How Xenical 120mg Blocks Fat Absorption

Xenical 120mg contains orlistat, a lipase inhibitor that works directly in your digestive system. When you take one capsule with each main meal, orlistat blocks the lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. This prevents approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed into your body. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, reducing your calorie intake from dietary sources.

Why This Mechanism Makes Xenical Worth Buying

Unlike appetite suppressants that act on your brain, Xenical works locally in your gut where fat digestion occurs. This targeted action means the medication isn't significantly absorbed into your bloodstream. The mechanism is scientifically proven - clinical studies demonstrate that blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption can support meaningful weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.

Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Same Proven Mechanism

Both branded Xenical 120mg (£19.35 for 2 weeks with EDM10) and generic orlistat 120mg (£15.20 for 2 weeks with EDM10) contain identical active ingredients at the same dose. The fat-blocking mechanism works identically in both products. Generic orlistat offers significant savings - you can access the same proven mechanism from just £86.39 for 12 weeks compared to £116.09 for branded Xenical.

How to Maximise the Fat-Blocking Effect

Xenical works best when you limit fat intake to approximately 15g per meal. Higher fat meals don't increase the weight management benefits but do increase the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects like oily stools. The medication blocks approximately one third of dietary fat regardless of meal size, so keeping meals lower in fat optimises both effectiveness and comfort.

What to Expect When the Mechanism Works

When Xenical successfully blocks dietary fat, you may notice oily or fatty stools - this is actually evidence the mechanism is working. These effects are more noticeable initially and when eating higher-fat meals. Most people find side effects reduce over time as they adapt to a lower-fat diet that works synergistically with orlistat's fat-blocking action.
