Designed to help us maintain a healthy diet, Total Blocker, from Vitobest®, is a unique formulation made from Polynat® and Phaseol™, two vegetable extracts of the highest quality on the market:
- Polynat® is a revolutionary compound of mushroom polymer polysaccharides. This species is a good source of fiber (2 g per 100 grams of food) and its main component is chitin, a polymer of N-acetylglucosamine that provides a feeling of fullness, increases fecal volume and improves intestinal transit, thus decreasing fat absorption1,2.
- Phaseol™ is made from bean pod (Phaseolus vulgaris). The seeds of this species contain an alpha-amylase inhibitor that limits the metabolic activity of starch. Bean pods are useful for their satiating, hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, antioxidant and diuretic properties. They also decrease levels of triglycerides (TG) and "bad" cholesterol (LDLc)3,4.
Vitobest® uses vegetable capsules (VegeCaps) suitable for vegan diets and free of titanium dioxide for this supplement.
