Product Overview
What is PGX®?
PGX (PolyGlycopleX®) is a patented super fiber complex appetite suppressing supplement made up of natural, highly viscous polysaccharides. When taken with meals, PGX expands in the stomach over a 30-minute (or longer) timeframe. This process creates a feeling of fullness (satiety) by absorbing water and filling the stomach while slowing digestion1. This promotes healthy blood sugar levels thereby curbing the body’s hunger cravings throughout the day1.
How Does it Work?
PGX reduces appetite and promotes a feeling of fullness.
Unlike other supplements which promise; “a magical change in metabolism”, “fat that melts away”, or “weight loss without any effort required”, PGX is backed by published, double-blind research that demonstrate PGX’s effectiveness at helping you feel full longer and hungry less often1.
While helping you eat reduced portions and making healthy changes to your diet and lifestyle, PGX can help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight for life1.

Important notes
PGX Daily can slow the absorption of oral medications if they are taken together at the same time, so medications should be taken an hour before PGX Daily or two or three hours before taking PGX Daily fibers.

Diabetics should monitor their blood sugar regularly because PGX Daily fibers may lower their blood sugar level and thus may interfere with their diabetes medications, and they should consult a doctor before use.

I’ve tried other diets. How is PGX different?
Unlike other supplements, PGX is designed to “treat the cause, not the illness”. PGX and the PGX Programs will not only help you lose weight but help you maintain a healthier weight. And while doing so, PGX will provide you with the added benefits of living a healthier life.
