take seaweed to loss weight

Seaweed could hold the key to conquering obesity, scientists believe. Their research shows that it can reduce fat uptake by more than 75 per cent.

Now, scientists at Newcastle University are adding the seaweed fibre to bread and launching trials to see if foods can be developed which can even help people lose weight.
The research team, led by Dr Iain Brownlee and Prof Jeff Pearson, has found that dietary fibre in one of the world’s largest commercially used seaweed could reduce the amount of fat absorbed by the body by around 75 per cent.

The team found that Alginate – a natural fibre found in sea kelp – stops the body from absorbing fat better than most anti-obesity treatments currently available over the counter.

    Losing weight has become a big concern in todays life. Earlier i used to read all the blogs related to weight loss and tried many so called solutions. many of them never worked and some showed up useless results. being an employee, its very tough to workout everything and follow a perfect diet plan. So i planned to go for ayurveda. Later i found this solution, an ayurvedic herbal extract " GO LITE ". After using the product, i lost many pounds, that too naturally without any crash diets and straining workouts. I recommend this as one of the perfect solution. for more details and discussions visit
