Chitosan - an indigestible substance of carbohydrate nature that supports the maintenance of optimal blood cholesterol levels 

Chitosan is a functional dietary supplement, which comprises an indigestible substance of carbohydrate nature along with vitamin C. Chitosan is obtained from chitin, which is most often derived from the shells of sea crustaceans. Unlike ordinary polysaccharides, it does not break down into energy in the body. This is because humans lack the digestive enzyme chitinase, which can metabolize it. On the other hand, when it passes through the digestive tract, it acquires a gel-like form and increases in volume. In doing so, it can promote the feeling of satiety. This is especially useful when losing weight, as you typically want to reduce your caloric intake during this time and eat smaller portions of food.  

 

Another great advantage of chitosan is that it helps maintain optimal blood cholesterol levels. To achieve this beneficial effect, you need to take 3 g of chitosan daily, which this product provides. This makes it one of the popular dietary supplements among people who want to support the health of their heart and blood vessels. What's more, the ingredient profile of this product includes vitamin C, which is involved in many biological processes in the body. When looking at losing weight and maintaining healthy body fat levels, you will appreciate its effect on energy metabolism. This is because it ensures the release and utilization of energy, which you use during various activities, including sports. However, vitamin C also supports the proper functioning of the immune and nervous systems and mental wellbeing. It also contributes to the reduction of fatigue and exhaustion.  

  

Chitosan belongs to popular dietary supplement among people who maintain a caloric deficit, follow a reduction diet and want to lose weight. This is because it is most effective when combined with a well-balanced diet. Last but not least, it is sought after among individuals who seek to optimize their cholesterol levels.
