Q.

What do you think about the product Lipobind?

Just a quick question on what you thought of the product lipobind which has been advertised lately as a natural weight loss aid. It claims to reduce cravings, reduce appetite and says something about not letting your body hold onto fat??? Is it worth trying?

A.

Our expert says...

Hi,

I’m afraid I don’t know anyone who has tried this product to be able to give you some consumer feedback.  It may be that Lipobind has its uses in kick starting a weight loss programme, as  we all know it is easier to stick to a diet once the results start to show, but I think that would be up to each individual to try (if they wanted to, of course).

Lipobind claims it can remove up to 27% of undigested fats from a meal.  Personally, I would prefer to just lower my fat consumption and make sure I eat mainly essential fats, found in foods like fish, olive oil, avocado, nuts and seeds.  I would avoid the saturated, hard fats in butter and cheese, for example, and also trans-fats so often found in processed food.  They are not worth the calories or risk to our health!

When it comes to losing and maintaining weight, I’m afraid that there is no substitute in my book for a healthy eating regime that you can, and indeed want to, maintain for life.
