New weight loss aid

If you add alli to a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet, it can reward your hard work, with 50% more weight loss. So for every 2 lb weight you lose by your own efforts, alli can help you lose 1 lb more

What is alli?

alli is exciting news for adults who are overweight with a BMI of 28 or over, want to lose weight and who understand the importance of sensible eating when they’re trying to lose weight. If you know what it’s like to step on the scales and not lose as much weight as you were expecting, alli could be just what you need.

  • alli is not a magic slimming pill. It's a weight loss capsule designed to be used with a support programme (find out more at www.alli.co.uk) to help boost your weight loss. It’s clinically proven that adding alli to a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet can boost your weight loss by 50%.
  • It works by stopping some of the fat you eat from being absorbed, so for every 2 lb (1 kg) you lose from eating healthily, adding alli can help you lose 1 lb (1/2 kg) more.
  • alli is the first pharmacy-only weight loss aid licensed throughout Europe.

Due to the way the alli capsules work, it’s important to eat a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet. You may do so already, in which case you’ll probably only need to make some minor adjustments – you can check your daily fat and calorie targets at www.alli.co.uk.

  • Before you take alli, read the information contained in the alli pack.

A healthy approach

alli is not a miracle slimming pill or a crash diet. The alli capsule, in combination with the rest of the alli programme, helps you lose weight gradually. Losing weight and keeping it off can help improve your general health and reduce your risk of developing several serious health problems.

How does alli work?

If you want to lose weight, it’s important to understand how body fat accumulates in the first place. When you eat more calories than your body needs, your body will store the extra ones as body fat, making you put on weight. alli is an effective answer to help you lose the weight sensibly, and the alli programme (find out more at www.alli.co.uk) gives you lots of help at every stage.

  • adding alli to a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet can help you boost your weight loss by 50%.
  • For every 2 lb (1 kg) you lose from your own efforts, with alli you can lose 1 lb (1/2 kg) more.
  • alli works in a unique way. The active ingredient, orlistat, attaches itself to some of the body’s enzymes that break down fat. This prevents some of the fat you eat from being digested and absorbed
  • Fat is high in calories but if it isn't absorbed, it can't contribute to weight gain. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally out of your body in your stools.
  • Unlike stimulants or appetite suppressants, alli is formulated to work only in your digestive system and should not affect your heart rate, your brain or cause sleeplessness.

To make the most of the way alli works and to help you achieve your weight loss goals, you’ll need to follow a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet and become more active. You can find out more information at www.alli.co.uk

How to take alli

Take one capsule, three times a day at mealtimes – before, during or up to one hour after each meal.

Swallow the capsule whole with water and do not take more than three a day.

alli works on the fat in your meals, so if you miss a meal or the meal doesn’t contain fat, don’t take a capsule.

You should also take a multivitamin every day at bedtime to ensure adequate absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K.

Is alli suitable for me?

alli is suitable for people who, in medical terms, are classed as moderately to severly overweight which means adults (over 18) with a BMI of 28 or above.

You can find out your BMI, take a quiz to see if you are right for alli, read some frequently asked questions and get lots more information about the alli programme at www.alli.co.uk.
