About Checkwt 60Mg Capsule

Checkwt 60Mg Capsule belongs to the class of medications called anti-obesity drugs used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. Checkwt 60Mg Capsule is to be used along with a low-calorie diet and regular physical exercise. Obesity is a common condition associated with excessive body fat which in turn increases the risk of other health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, certain cancers and heart disease. Intake of more calories than you burn by exercise or daily activities results in obesity.

Checkwt 60Mg Capsule contains Cetilistat that decreases the absorption and digestion of fat from the food you eat. Thus, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the faeces, which makes the body unable to use fat as a source of energy or convert it into fat tissue. Thereby, Checkwt 60Mg Capsule helps in weight loss.

You are advised to take Checkwt 60Mg Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.

Most of these side effects of Checkwt 60Mg Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

Medicinal Benefits

Checkwt 60Mg Capsule contains Cetilistat, an anti-obesity drug used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. Checkwt 60Mg Capsule works in the small intestine and stomach and prevents the action of enzymes that breakdown fat which is absorbed by the body. Cetilistat inhibits pancreatic lipase, an enzyme necessary for the digestion of fats, and thus decreases the absorption of fat from the food you eat. Hence, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the faeces, making the body unable to use fat as a source of energy or convert it into fat tissue. Thereby, Checkwt 60Mg Capsule helps in weight loss and reduces the risk of serious health problems.

Storage

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Invest in a balanced diet. Do not starve yourself. Make sure you eat lean, clean, and small meals. Eat more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean meats, and low-dairy fat products.
  • Drinking plenty of water makes you feel full and helps you avoid food.
  • Some people tend to eat more when they are happy, some when they are sad or feeling low. Maintaining a food diary can help you identify your food patterns.
  • Avoid distractions while eating. Meals are supposed to be had at the dining table. Having your dinner or lunch in front of the TV, can distract you and get you to consume more.
  • Taking a stroll in the garden, or spending 30 minutes of your time doing some light physical activity can be very useful. However, do not over-exert yourself if you feel too tired. 
  • Taking the stairs instead of the elevator can also prove helpful in losing weight.
  • Sometimes, eating more can be due to a psychological factor or an eating disorder. Make sure you see a psychologist to understand your eating habits better.
  • A lot of people benefit from joining a support group for obesity. Find people who you can identify with and speak openly about your struggles.
  • Always remember, your weight does not define you. Maintain a healthy body image and be a friend to yourself.
