How Does Xenical Work?
If you eat more than the amount of fat or calories required to fuel your body, the excess is stored as fat, resulting in weight gain. When you eat fat, your body breaks it down into its simplest components so that it can be digested.
Different than other weight-loss drugs that act in the brain or central nervous system to suppress appetite or to speed up metabolism, Xenical does its work in your digestive system to block about one-third of the fat in the food you eat from being digested.
Enzymes in your digestive system, called lipases, help digest (or break down) fat. When taken with meals, Xenical attaches to the lipases and blocks them from digesting some of the fat you have eaten.
The undigested fat cannot be absorbed and is eliminated in your bowel movements. By working this way, Xenical helps block about one-third of the fat in the foods you eat from being absorbed by your body.
