Frequently Asked Questions
What is formoline L112 EXTRA and who is it for?
formoline L112 EXTRA is a CE-certified German lipid-binding medical device containing enhanced fibre L112, specifically developed for overweight adults (BMI > 25, especially above 75 kg) alongside dietary changes.
How does formoline L112 EXTRA support weight loss?
The active polyglucosamine L112 binds up to two-thirds of dietary fats in the stomach, reducing calorie absorption and promoting weight loss through a physical mechanism.
What is the recommended dosage for weight loss and management?
Take two tablets twice daily with the two highest-fat meals for weight loss; for maintenance, reduce to two tablets per day—always swallow with at least 250 ml of fluid and ensure 2 L daily water intake.
What clinical evidence supports its effectiveness?
In a 25-week randomized study, users on formoline L112 achieved significantly greater weight loss—5% of body weight in 52% of cases—compared to 20% on placebo when combined with a calorie-reduced diet.
Does formoline L112 EXTRA help with cholesterol levels?
Yes—the supplement shows LDL-cholesterol–lowering effects in addition to fat binding, contributing to cardiovascular health support.
Are there any side effects or contraindications?
In rare cases, users may experience mild digestive changes like bloating or constipation—typically linked to low fluid intake—and it should not be used by individuals under 18.5 BMI, pregnant or breastfeeding women, those allergic to crustaceans, or with gastrointestinal obstruction.
Can formoline L112 EXTRA affect absorption of other medications or nutrients?
Yes—it may reduce the absorption of fat-soluble drugs and vitamins (A, D, E, K), so a four-hour interval between formoline and such medications or nutrient-rich meals is recommended.
What dietary guidelines should be followed when using it?
Complement use with a calorie- and fat-moderate diet (no more than ~80 g fat/day), and ensure one meal daily contains healthy oils to support vitamin absorption; physical activity enhances results.
How many tablets are included in the benefit pack, and where is it from?
The value pack contains 192 tablets—manufactured in Germany by Certmedica International—ideal for long-term use.
Are there independent critiques of fat-binding supplements like this?
Independent assessments (e.g., Stiftung Warentest) advise caution, noting that while some glucomannan-based fat binders show modest short-term results alongside a calorie-controlled diet, long-term efficacy remains unproven.
