A helping hand
alli is exciting news for adults who are overweight with a BMI of 28 or over, who want to lose weight and who understand the importance of sensible eating. If you know what it's like to step on the scales and not lose as much weight as you were expecting, alli could be just what you need.

alli is not a miracle slimming pill or a crash diet. It's a weight loss capsule designed to be used with a support programme to help boost your weight loss. It's clinically proven that adding alli to a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet can boost your weight loss by 50%. It works by stopping some of the fat you eat from being absorbed, so for every 2lb (1 kg) you lose from eating healthily, adding alli can help you lose 1lb (1/2 kg) more.

alli 60 mg capsules are a weight loss aid containing orlistat. For overweight adults with a BMI of 28 or over. Follow a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet. Always read the label.
