Mischa Barton Fat Loss Pill? Proactol XS Review
Hey SuperHero friends! I’m super excited to share this Proactol XS review with y’all!! It’s a pretty cool weight loss supplement that you might not have heard of. It’s certainly not as huge as Hydroxycut pills or Garcinia Cambogia, or CLA, but it’s certainly worth checking out! Some people might go as far as calling it the “Mischa Barton Fat Loss Pill.” You’ll see why in a bit.
Some of you may have heard of carb blockers, which are supplements that block the storage of carbs in your body. Proactol XS works in a somewhat similar fashion, but takes the more traditional route of blocking fat. Proactol XS is considered a fat binder, which means it binds to the fat molecules in your body and inhibits them from being absorbed.
Proactol XS comes in a fairly normal-looking white bottle. Each bottle contains 60 tablets and it’s recommended that you take 2 tablets 15 minutes before a main meal with a large glass of water. They say that you can do that up to 3 times in a day, which means if you really max out your daily intake of Proactol XS, a single bottle may last you only 10 days.
This supplement works its magic whenever you ingest fat. When fat enters your stomach, Proactol XS acts a soluble fiber and integrates with the fat. It creates a complex around the fat that prevents it from being digested into your system.
The Proactol XS Secret Sauce: Chitosan
The primary ingredient in the product that makes this all possible is chitosan, which is also known by its boring scientific name: biopolymer N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and D-glucosamine. 1 capsule contains 500 mg of chitosan. Chitosan is a polysaccharide and in Proactol XS, it is derived from Aspergillus niger mycelium (a type of fungus). Besides supplements, chitosan is used in a variety of commercial products such as agricultural products, wine, paints, and medicine.
It’s sold in a variety of supplements to help with weight loss and functions as a soluble dietary fiber. As you may know, fiber helps you feel more full, which may prevent you from overeating and gaining weight. There’s certainly plenty of research still being done on chitosan, especially on the effectiveness of its benefits and how it works exactly. Some studies imply that chitosan may alter the composition of bile acid in our body which may help us excrete more fat, and some studies suggest that it may aid in preventing our bodies from absorbing fat. Ultimately, you can see that the benefits of chitosan are the key, defining features of Proactol XS.
According to Bauer Nutrition, Proactol XS is backed by over 40 clinical trials which display its effectiveness over other fat-binding supplements. That’s definitely a pretty positive sign when a company can say it’s backed by over 40 clinical studies! There’s certainly a lot of supplements out there that have little to no scientific data to back their claims. Also, if you’re one of those people out there that have a million different allergies, or super conscious about what you put in your body, or live a vegetarian lifestyle, you’ll be relieved to know that Proactol XS is super safe and natural. It has no preservatives, lactose, shellfish, GMOs, or animal products.

I had the fun experience of trying out Proactol XS for 15 days straight. For the first 6 days I only took 2 tablets before my lunch (if you’re not too familiar with my daily routine, I actually don’t eat breakfast). On a lot of days I was usually able to take the tablets 15 minutes before my meal, but I have to admit, there were times where I forgot so I would take the tablets during my meal or right after my meal. Whether or not that had an impact on my appetite, I’m not quite sure.
On day 7, I decided to start taking the product before lunch and dinner. On days 9 and 10, I actually ate breakfast so that I could observe any noticeable differences. It wasn’t until day 13 when I finally noticed a difference in my appetite. On day 13, I decided to take 2 tablets a whole hour before I ate lunch. I noticed that I definitely felt more full as I ate. Now, like taking any sort of weight loss supplement, there may have been a placebo effect taking place, or perhaps it was just a coincidence. In my opinion, though, I think there is a positive correlation between the length of time you take Proactol XS before you eat, and how full you feel during your meal.
Overall, my 15-day experience with Proactol XS was okay. I honestly can’t say that it was life-changing or that it completely curbed my appetite. My best experience with the product was on day 13 when I took the product an hour before my lunch. That was the first time where I legitimately felt the product making a difference in my satiety.
Will you have the exact same experience as me? Maybe, but most likely not. You have to take into account that I’m still a relatively young guy (27 years old as I’m writing this) and that my metabolism is still relatively fast (although I’m noticing that it’s slowing down a bit…..shucks…..). Proactol XS might make a bigger difference, or at the very least, give a different experience, if you’re a 45 year-old woman with a slower metabolism. Also, keep in mind that I normally don’t eat breakfast. If you normally eat 3 meals a day and take this product for 30+ days straight as suggested, you might notice more of a positive effect.
If you choose to invest in Proactol XS, my biggest tip would be to take it MORE than 15 minutes before your meal. I think that this is especially true if you’re like me and love to eat a lot and possess a relatively higher metabolism. It’s just my hypothesis, but I think the longer the time frame, from the point you ingest the supplement to the time you eat your meal, the more effective the product becomes.
Other Customer Experiences: Mischa Barton?
Although my experience was just “okay,” there are certainly numerous people that swear by the product and absolutely love it! The biggest testimonial, and one that came as a huge surprise to me, was that of celebrity Mischa Barton. If you’re kind of like me and don’t really know too much about her, she’s a famous British-American actress and is known for her performance in the hit TV show The O.C. It’s said that Mischa likes Proactol XS because it contains natural ingredients and has no side effects.
I also found a couple of other pretty good testimonials. This one came from a guy named Mark, who has been a fan of the product for years:
“I have been using Proactol for years, and it has definitely kept me from gaining weight from fat-rich meals.I have gone off it a few times for a few weeks, and boy did my midsection/stomach get big (which is the area of the body where excess fat is stored). I love that it has absolutely no side effects (for me) and I can just pop a few before I eat pasta, pizza, popcorn, bread, drink beer, etc., and not have to pay the price the next day when buttoning my jeans. This stuff is one of my best friends in terms of weight control, and I take it with me wherever I go. It’s a little expensive but totally worth buying.”
Here’s one from Amanda who claims to have lost 10 lbs from using the product:
“Worked wonders for me so far. Tried it for a month without changing anything else in my diet or doing any extra exercise and lost roughly 10 lbs which is amazing! Just re-ordered the 90 day supply since that seems like a great deal and just help me lose enough weight in the next 3 months.”
Should You Buy Proactol XS?
One bottle of Proactol XS contains 60 capsules. The speed at which you finish one bottle is dependent on how many meals you eat per day. If you eat 3 meals per day, one bottle will last you 10 days. If you eat 2 meals per day, one bottle will last you 15 days. If you eat 1 meal per day, one bottle will last you 30 days. Bauer Nutrition sells one bottle of Proactol XS for $49.95.
Given the fact that you can plow through a bottle of Proactol XS fairly quickly, $49.95 may seem like a lot of money, especially if you’re on a fairly tight budget like me. Therefore, if you’re completely broke and struggling to pay your electricity bill or your mortgage, it might not be the solution for you. I am, however, a big fan of Bauer Nutrition because they offer you a high-level of cost savings when you purchase in bulk. When you purchase 2 bottles, you’ll actually get a third one for free, which saves you $49.95. Even better, when you buy 3 bottles, you’ll get 3 additional bottles for free, which will save you $149.85. On top of that, Bauer Nutrition offers free shipping across the world (regardless of how big your order is) and a 60-day money back guarantee.
If you choose to invest in the product, I’d recommend going for the “buy 3, get 3 free deal” because that’s going to give you the highest return on your investment. Not only are you saving yourself close to $150, but you’re also giving yourself plenty of opportunity to conduct extended testing of the product. From my personal experience, using the product for 10 days is not enough time to really let it work its magic. If you’re going to buy Proactol XS, you might as well use it to its fullest.
In my opinion, Proactol XS is a good product for you if you have a tendency to overeat, like to eat foods that are high in fat (mmm….bacon anyone?), and/or prefer to take supplements that contain more natural ingredients. At the end of the day, Proactol XS is a fat binder that can potentially prevent your body from absorbing and storing fat. Therefore, if you have a tendency to eat a lot of foods such as pizza, burgers, steak, bacon (mmm), and ice cream, which all contain a high amount of fat, Proactol XS might help to curb your appetite so that you don’t overdose on fatty foods………and give yourself a heart attack! 🙂
I like to think of Proactol XS as “fat insurance.” When you use the product, it enables you to enjoy some of those greasy foods that you love to eat, without feeling as guilty. You can eat your bacon with the assurance that your body will absorb less fat than it normally does. Don’t be stupid though! If you use the product, it doesn’t automatically mean that you can eat all the fat you want and still expect to stay skinny for the rest of your life. Unfortunately, in the real world, it just doesn’t work like that.
If you prefer products that use natural ingredients and don’t have any side effects, you’ll fall in love with Proactol XS. Again, it’s a non-GMO product that has no preservatives, no gluten, no lactose, no molluscs, no crustaceans, no shellfish, and NO ADDITIONAL ANIMAL PRODUCTS! For all you vegans, vegetarians, and animal-lovers, this might just be the Holy Grail of weight loss supplements that you need!
That’s all I got for you guys! Hope you enjoyed this review and that it aids in whatever journey you’re on! See you in the next review!
Supp. It. Up.
