Liposene Side Effects

Lipozene is a weight-loss supplement containing glucomannan, a type of dietary fiber. It works by absorbing water and fat in the digestive system, creating a sensation of fullness so the person does not feel hungry. Most side effects can be avoided by starting with a small amount and gradually increasing it.
