A carb blocker supplement helps a person to lose weight by preventing carbohydrates that we consume from being stored as fat in our bodies. It is interesting to note there have been clinical studies conducted which claims that carb blockers do work but the studies were not conclusive. However in my opinion, carb blocker pill does work but the results will vary from person to person.

The main ingredient to be found in carb blocker pills is phaselous vulgaris which is an extract taken from the white kidney bean and wheat germ. It is claimed that by taking carb blocker pills, you are helping to prevent a digestive enzyme known as alpha amylase from breaking carbohydrates down into glucose and in turn into fat.

So instead of your body retaining the carbohydrates and turning them into stored fat, they are removed from the body before they actually have a chance to enter your bloodstream. It is also claimed that these pills can prevent as much as 30 to 45 grams of carbohydrates being absorbed into the body.
