During the digestive process, your body converts carbohydrates, found in starchy foods such as potatoes and pasta, into sugar. Your body does this by breaking-down the carbohydrate molecule with alpha amylase, an enzyme that is produced in the pancreas.

These sugar calories are either burned off, through exercise, or stored as fat cells for future use. Unfortunately, inactivity means that these stored fat cells accumulate. The result is weight gain. Dietrine Carb Blocker with Phase 2^®, an exclusive, all-natural nutritional ingredient extracted from white kidney beans, "neutralizes" the digestive enzyme alpha amylase before it can convert starch into glucose, thereby reducing the amount of carbs absorbed. Essentially, it allows the carbohydrates to pass through the system with less caloric intake.* Preliminary research and clinical studies indicate that the Phase 2^® starch blocker may reduce the absorption of starch, thereby reducing the amount of carbs absorbed, resulting in significantly less net caloric intake.
