It is a polysaccharide (complex carbohydrate) that is extracted from the shell of crustaceans and acts as an insoluble fiber in the digestive tract, that is; It cannot be absorbed or digested, since it cannot be hydrolyzed by the digestive system.
It has applications in both the medical industry and the food industry, it also participates in water filtration processes in the agricultural industry... but as a food supplement we will highlight its benefits later.
Properties / Benefits
-Captures fat from your diet: due to its chemical composition, chitosan traps fatty acids from the acidic environment of the stomach, acting as a “magnet” at a molecular level. This reaction forms a gel that sequesters more and more fatty acids. They occupy its interior. Vitamin C in this scenario exerts its mechanism of action, providing greater elasticity to the gel, and therefore a greater capacity to capture fatty acids, an emulsion that ends up being excreted in the feces.
-Benefits your intestinal transit: since it acts as a dietary fiber, it will increase the size of your stools, combating constipation. It is important to point out that regular transit is related to good intestinal health, being better protected against colon cancer.
-Reduces hypercholesterolemia: the cholesterol provided with food will also be absorbed to a lesser extent, so if you are taking care of your diet to lower LDL (“bad cholesterol”), this supplement can help you.
Why take the supplement? Features of our Rawters product.
Although its periodic consumption is not recommended since it prevents the absorption of fat, and with it essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins necessary for multiple biological processes, occasional use before social commitments (family meals, weddings, etc.) can be a solution to avoid storing extra unwanted fat in our adipose tissue. Furthermore, its consumption in short periods of time can benefit the body due to its impact on plasma cholesterol and also on intestinal imbalances.
Rawters Chitosan. It is different from other chitosan-based products since it also includes Vitamin C, which gives it extra antioxidant capabilities typical of that vitamin.
How to consume our product? What to combine it with?
It is enough to take one capsule a day, preferably on an empty stomach, to take advantage of its benefits related to hypercholesterolemia and intestinal health.
By not digesting fat we will run the risk of not reaching the recommended daily recommendations for fat-soluble vitamins, so from Rawters. We consider the option of accompanying this dietary supplement with Daily Vitamins Complex at different times of the day, to ensure a correct supply of vitamins.
