Chitosan 500mg

Chitosan is a new dietary fiber derived from chitin, a 
polysaccharide, derived from the shells of crustaceans. Chitosan 
does not contain any appreciable amounts of toxic minerals such 
as mercury, which have previously been associated with the meaty 
portions of certain shellfish.

Like other fibers, Chitosan is 
indigestible, and can reduce "transit time", which is the time 
it takes for foods to pass through the digestive system and out 
of the body. Therefore less fats in general, including 
cholesterol, sterols, fatty acids, and essential fatty acids are 
available to be absorbed. Dietary fiber is usually deficient in 
modern diets where foods are more highly processed. Fiber tends 
to increase stool bulk, hydration and it acts as a catalyst for 
colonic microflora, all of which speed transit time, and 
produces a softer stool.*
