    Fat Blockers/Carb Blockers

    I've heard of fat blockers - chitosan - and the science seems pretty solid although it's supposed to give you an upset tummy. Now I see carb blockers on the shelf. I'm trying to find articles about the science of carb blockers but all I seem to find are online merchants. Anyone have any experience with either or both?

    Here's some info.

    Some more.

    One more piece.

    Some FTC info on carb blockers.

    I don't know any of the guys I work out with who use chitosan or carb blockers--they use creatine or something similar, but that doesn't sound like that would be what you're looking for.
