fat? Or saturates?

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi all

I started orlistat today and am trying to get to grips with it all.

Can anyone tell me, the 5g of fat per 100g, is it 5g of total fat or 5g of saturated fat?

Many thanks 😉

    It's fat, not saturated. I've been on these since the weekend and sticking to max 15-20g per meal. Find it a bit easier to follow that way and haven't had any side effects yet. Good luck!
