Lipexa contains the soluble fiber, alpha-cyclodextrin, a prebiotic patented as FBCx®. FBCx has been researched for over a decade. Clinical studies show that Lipexa assists in supporting healthy cholesterol and triglycerides and helps to maintain triglycerides after meals.† While typical dietary fibers sequester dietary fat in an approximate 1:1 ratio, in the laboratory, FBCx has demonstrated an impressive fat-complexing capability of 1:9.† The FBCx fat complex passes through the digestive tract without being absorbed and is metabolized and eliminated without unpleasant side effects. Lipexa assists in supporting normal blood lipids.† Lipexa can also help to manage weight by reducing the absorption of dietary fat when combined with a healthy diet and exercise program.
