Mothers, educators and child carers are all very much aware of
childhood obesity, a global problem that is increasing at an alarming
rate. Globally, in 2010, the number of overweight children under the age
of five, is estimated to have been over 42 million.
Now while obese adults very often resort to all kinds of fat blockers,
tablets, syrups, gels etc. to tackle their condition, this is not
possible in the case of children, for such ‘medicines’ and dietary
supplements will cause further harm to them if taken at a tender age.
Such dietary products should in fact be out of reach for children.
Being very much aware of this dilemma, Alta Care Laboratoires has just
added a new product to its Altadrine range, a product which is not at
all harmful for children; on the contrary it is ideal for obese, or
rather overweight, children. This is the ALTADRINE FAT AND CARB BLOCKER
sachets that block fats and carbohydrates. ALTADRINE FAT AND CARB
BLOCKER helps weight control by inhibiting carbohydrate break down and
by inhibiting fat absorption.
The fundamental causes behind the rising levels of childhood obesity
are a shift in diet towards increased intake of energy-dense foods that
are high in fat and sugars but low in vitamins, minerals, fibres and
other healthy micronutrients. A trend towards decreased levels of
physical activity has also been noted.
ALTADRINE FAT AND CARB BLOCKER is a drink with an orange flavour that is bound to please children and could easily replace the normal popular drinks on the market which are unfortunately so high in sugars.

• psyllium - a dietary fibre that absorbs excess water while stimulating normal bowel elimination; a fat blocker
• chromium picolinate - that attenuates weight gain and controls insulin levels.
• white kidney bean - a carbohydrate blocker. The white kidney bean extract does not allow carbohydrate break down because it inhibits the enzyme amylase which is responsible for breakdown of carbohydrates into glucose.
Preparing the Altadrine drink is very simple. Just mix 1 sachet with a glass of water. As the orange drink becomes an orange fibre gel after mixing, it has to be drunk immediately, for the more time passes, the thicker the gel becomes. The Altadrine drink will become a fibre gel in the gastro intestinal tract. It is recommended to take one sachet during high carb and fatty meals.

CELLULITE!!! You're not the only one!!! The truth is
that 80 to 90% of women have some form of cellulite on their bodies, be
it abdomen, thighs, buttocks, flanks, legs, arms, ankles, etc. Some of
you won't be seen in a swimsuit, shorts, skirts or anything that exposes
their legs. For others it may be not much of a bother, but still an
inconvenience. Today anti-cellulite gels are being used both by men and
women especially in the abdominal area to cut out the abdominal muscles
further.
