Propolene

Written by: Ellen R. Delisio

Propolene is a natural weight-loss product manufactured by Obesity Research Institute, LLC of Nevada. Propolene is sold in bottles of 90 capsules each, and directions call for taking Propolene up to three times a day. The capsules have a shelf life of two years.

Propolene capsules contain a natural, high-fiber ingredient called Propol or glucomannan When taken with water, the Propolene's molecules bind with the water in the stomach, forming a viscous fiber mass, that is completely natural dietary fiber. The expansion of the fiber in the stomach causes people to feel full. When that happens, people eat less and the body burns fat stored in the body.

The fiber also traps some of the fat in foods that are consumed and prevents the fat from being absorbed by the digestive tract. This way Propolene helps people lose weight without them having to change their diets. Propolene originally was advertised for people who needed to lose 20 pounds or more, but the company no longer is making that assertion. People who want to lose a few pounds, or are aiming for more significant weight loss use Propolene. One difference between Propolene and other weight-loss products is that Propolene does not contain any stimulants. Propolene also can be used in conjunction with other weight-loss supplements.

According to the Obesity Research Institute, the amount of weight loss a person experiences while using Propolene varies with each individual, but people have reported losing as much as ten pounds in a few weeks.

Customers who order Propolene also will receive a Healthy Living Guide, which discusses diet and exercise plans, and even some food shopping tips, designed to increase weight loss while using Propolene.

Propolene can be purchased in stores, over the telephone or on the Internet. People frequently learn about the product through television infomercials.
