Can pills made from kidney beans help you lose weight?
Could eating kidney beans - or a pill made from white kidney beans - solve your weight gain problem?
It is well known that eating too many carbohydrates can lead to weight gain. This is a particular problem with simple carbohydrates - those found in processed foods and white flour.
As these carbohydrates are digested, the starchy part is converted directly into sugar, and any that is not used is stored as fat.
Products to block carbohydrate digestion have been available in the UK for several years, both via prescription and over the counter.
When made from an extract of the white kidney bean, carbohydrates are broken down by an enzyme known as alpha amylase, produced in the pancreas.
It reduces the effectiveness of this enzyme, preventing carbohydrates being converted into sugar. This means side effects are virtually eradicated.
In a small study carried out at the University of Scranton, Pennsylvania, a 1.5g (white bean extract) tablet cut the amount of carbohydrate absorbed in a meal by up to 66 per cent.

2011How I Lost It!
As a teenager, I'd come in from school starving and eat buttered toast - lots of it! It became a habit, the
weight pilled on and, as I got older, I had to admit that I was fat!
For years, I did nothing. Then last year, my mum suggested WeightWatchers.
I joined and lost a couple of stone, then I got stuck and for two months, my weight stayed the same.
I'm only 5ft 1in and I was 11st. A friend suggested I try BioCARB, which she said helps you lose weight by stopping
your body absorbing calories from carbs.
I took two capsules with every meal and began exercising, and
after four weeks. I started to lose 1lb a week without changing my diet. Now I've reached my goal weight and soon
I'm off on holiday. I'm going to be wearing a bikini for the first time ever!

Understanding Carbs The body uses carbohydrate compounds for energy. They are found in almost every type of food you eat. All carbohydrates are made up of individual molecules. There are two different types. The first is the most basic of carbohydrates which includes the sugar you put in your tea. This 'simple' carbohydrate consists of just one or two of these molecules.
The other more complex carbohydrate is found within starchy foods. These are made up of a number of sugar molecules joined together. These are found in bread, pasta and rice, as well as some types of fruit and vegetable.
Why do I need carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates are your body's most important source of energy. When you eat a carbohydrate, it's broken down by your digestive system into single molecules of glucose (which is the main form of fuel for your body). The glucose is then circulated in your blood to every cell within your body.
If you don't consume enough carbohydrates within your diet, your body will begin to break down fat followed by protein, to get the glucose it needs. Protein is vital for your body to be able to grow and repair, so using it as an energy source leaves little protein to carry out these vital functions. Eating enough carbohydrate will prevent this.
Which carbs are good? Which are bad?
Carbohydrates are not as fattening as has been suggested. It's not good to consume too much, but if you eat more carbohydrates than your body can burn off as energy, your body's glucose stores will become saturated and the excess will be converted to fat. So in this case, your body will begin to put on weight. But removing them from the diet is not a viable option as carbohydrates are an essential part of a healthy diet. The key is picking the right type of carbohydrates as some carbohydrates are healthier than others.
The bad:
Sugary foods such as cakes and biscuits are high in fat, but do not contain many other useful nutrients. They contribute to your energy intake but have little other value. Not only that, but sugary foods contain a lot of calories. It's therefore best to limit your intake of sugary foods and stick to starchy foods.
The good:
Generally the best starchy carbohydrates are wholegrain foods including bread, pasta and cereal. Wholegrains contain a host of important nutrients that are considered to reduce your risk of heart disease and bowel cancer. Wholegrains are also more likely to keep you feeling fuller for longer - as they normally take longer to digest than processed foods and contain more fibre. This factor helps to control your appetite, helping you to maintain a healthy weight.

I was very optimistic about this product due to the positive reviews for it. After a week of taking biocarb i did not notice any difference in my weght. I now go to the gym twice a week and noticed i lost a pound, then my weight remained the same. Overall i expected more from this product, but i am very dissapointed with the result. I would have rated it with a star but i know my review may not be posted. ..

I try and avoid carbohydrates but sometimes they are essential so I take biocarb alongside to help counteract the effects, and I can definitely vouch that I have had had fewer energy slumps as a result of these and am considerably less hungry. ..

I tend to always have a packet of biscuits on hand for those daily emergencies, and that packet of biscuits is always gone within the week and the pounds started to creep on and on. I wanted to lose weight before I went on holiday and started looking for a solution that didn't involved hours at the gym, I found BioCARB on Chemist Direct and decided to take the plunge and it works, along with a little bit more working and a few fewer biscuits I lost 10lbs in two months and felt a little bit happier in my swimming cossie. ..
