Alli is the only FDA approved weight loss program that helps enable weight loss by decreasing fat absorption in the body. In the digestive tract, an enzyme called lipase breaks down fat in the intestinal tract and stores it for later use. Alli uses a chemical called orlistat that inhibits lipase from breaking down the fat in the body. The fat then exits the body through bowel movements. Diet and exercises can result in the same amount of weight loss without use of the Alli pill. People taking the Alli pill are encouraged to eat a low fat diet to avoid problems with anal leakage. Sticking to the diet alone can result in the same amount of weight loss as dieting while using Alli. Most of the weight loss with the Alli pill comes from diet and exercise. Very little weight loss is due to the pill's properties such as inhibiting the lipase, so taking the pill may only result in losing a few pounds faster than with just diet and exercise alone.
