Will Zamocal-120 work for everyone?
Zamocal-120 has been shown to be highly effective at aiding weight loss when combined with a healthy lifestyle. To achieve optimal results with Zamocal-120 patients should:
• Take three tablets per day, immediately before, during, or up to an hour after meals.
• Follow a reduced calorie diet that’s lower in fat.
• Take regular exercise.
• Skip a tablet if a meal is skipped or contains no fat. Zamocal-120 binds to fat and will not work if fat hasn’t been consumed.
