This chitosan is of a trusted brand that used quality ingredients. The dosage works for me and the size is not too big. There is no taste or smell. I would say it benefit me a lot cause when I eat oily food which is quite often i can still loose weight. The results are very obvious.

Good quality and it works like a charm. My son used to put on weight whenever he ate outside food too often. With this Chitosan top up with White Kidney Bean Extract even better. The Chitosan ingredients are within healthy range at the same time have fat absorbing action. The size of the capsule is just nice. My son definitely benefits from it. It is a good product.

This is a good quality product. Used it for first time during a month. Benefits for me by this time: bowel movement twice daily. Boost energy, as it helps with intoxication, my skin became cleaner. It doesnt taste bad, size of capsules are not big. Surely I will buy it again.

I usually take one to two capsules before I have heavy/big meals, or before I eat anything oily (such as fast food). So far I haven’t noticed any significant difference, but I think it takes much longer to show any results. But just remember that you should not take any oil-soluble supplements (such as vitamin A, D3 or omega-3 etc) within 4 hours of taking chitosan as it will hinder the absorption.

Works great to absorb fat and oil when eating rich meals amazing. You really get oily bathroom situation but then you know it really works. I find you don’t need to take the full dosage if you’re not eating super oily good. Obvious benefit and see that it works. Small sized capsules

This has quality ingredients to achieve and maintain weight loss. Take it before or after any heavy meal. I feel the dosage benefit is more effective at night with plenty of water. It takes away the bloating from a large meal. It may also have good detox property and keeps me regular.

Had no idea what to expect when I started these but at the risk of TMI, I had awful IBS symptoms for about 6 years then found CBD oil, which after about a month of consistent use completely resolved the pain and cramping issues. Two years in I read about chitosan and its fat-binding properties and decided to give it a go. I noticed on day 2 that my mornings were way more comfortable, and um voluminous and um... far more floaty. Quality is good. Ingredients is real. Size is acceptable. I did find some research that showed Crohn's patients often see relief from chitosan due to its sequestering fat in the bowels, which made me feel a lot better since I was concerned that fat not absorbed by the small intestine would cause problems in the large intestine. I basically take 2-3 pills when having a high-fat meal to avoid missing essential fat-soluble nutrients.

I bought Chitosan In order to help me with my diet. I am not taking them every day, just on days when I'll have a hard meal like a cheat meal full of junk food. I am not sure yet if it is helpful for weight loss, my purpose was to not gain weight even when eating something high in calories, and I can say that it does the job, actually. If you'll look at the ingredients list, you'll see Chrome there too, which is a good cravings' suppressor. For the moment, I think it does it job as a weight control tool. I find the dosage quite big, so if u take 3pills before a meal, that's normal it will help you loose weight, because you have to drink a lot of water with it, so not much food is going ing you stomach afterwards anyway )))))

I recently tried NOW Foods Chitosan as a supplement to aid in weight loss and was pleased with the results. Chitosan is a dietary fiber derived from the shells of crustaceans and has been shown to help reduce fat absorption in the body. I found that taking this supplement along with a healthy diet and exercise routine helped me shed a few extra pounds. The capsules are easy to swallow and have no unpleasant aftertaste. I also appreciate that NOW Foods sources their chitosan from sustainable and environmentally friendly sources. Overall, I would recommend NOW Foods Chitosan to anyone looking for a natural and effective weight loss supplement. As with any supplement, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before adding it to your diet.
