Guest guest Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 , I'm not an expert on this...but I have tried to find the answer online and it doesn't seem to have been considered with this medication. If Alli increases the removal of fat from the body, seems to me it would also increase the removal of essential fatty acids (omega-3's). You can't really control which fat stays...and which fat goes. Unless the manufacturer could prove otherwise, I'd hesitate to recommend it. Regards, Monika M. Woolsey, MS, RD www.afterthediet.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" LOL any hoot I still have not learned how to deal with stress and around this time of year the holidays there always seams to be some extra around that I find. This year has been no exception! There is some great big kettle brewing right now filled with it and and I are standing under it with no way to run from it all we can do is hope it dose not spill on us but if it dose we just have to find away to deal with the great big life change it is going to bring to us and my whole family for years to come and no no one is pregnant that would be easier almost! the rednecks Marty & G. the redneck's my space http://www.myspace.com/martyg58 To learn about Stills Disease http://www.stillsdisease.org/stills_info For conservitive minded people http://www.americac2c.org " If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.
