NOW - Chitosan (500mg) - 240 Capsules

Chitosan (500mg) - 240 Capsules by NOW is a dietary supplement derived from chitin, a substance found in the exoskeletons of crustaceans such as crabs and shrimp. Each capsule contains 500mg of chitosan, a linear polysaccharide that is structurally similar to cellulose.

Chitosan is known for its ability to bind with lipids in the digestive tract, forming a gel-like complex that is excreted from the body. This property makes it a popular supplement for weight management and cholesterol control. Chitosan's potential to support digestive health is attributed to its fiber content, which can promote bowel regularity.

The product is encapsulated for easy ingestion, and the recommended dosage is typically two capsules, three times daily, preferably before meals. As with all supplements, it is advised to consult with a healthcare professional before use, especially for individuals with shellfish allergies due to the source of the chitosan.
