The food grade chitosan is an off-white powder with low molecular weight. It can be used for the production of cholesterol-lowering food and weight loss food. As a kind of positively-charged polymer, this product can effectively adsorb negatively-charged fatty acids. Therefore, it can safely adsorb body fat which is then excreted prior to being absorbed by human bodies.
