Description
Chitosan is a dietary fiber derived from the shells of crustaceans that has been shown in non-clinical studies to bind to fat and cholesterol in the digestive tract. NOW® Chitosan contains LipoSan ULTRA®, a patented high-density form of Chitosan. A published clinical study has demonstrated that LipoSan ULTRA®, taken as directed, may aid in the support of healthy body weight and serum cholesterol levels already within the normal range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is NOW Foods and is it a reliable supplement brand?
NOW Foods is an American natural products company founded in 1968 by Elwood Richard, still owned by the Richard family today. It manufactures a broad range of vitamins, minerals, supplements, natural foods, and personal care products. Facilities in Illinois, Nevada, and Ontario, Canada, operate under SQF Level II, Informed Sport/Informed Choice, and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited in-house laboratory certifications. NOW was one of the first supplement manufacturers to earn NPA cGMP certification in 2000, six years before the FDA made it mandatory for the dietary supplement industry.
What makes NOW Foods different from other large supplement brands?
NOW Foods has maintained family ownership for over 55 years with a deliberate strategy of keeping prices accessible rather than maximizing margins — a philosophy embedded from day one. Its ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited in-house laboratory operates at the same analytical accreditation standard used by pharmaceutical companies and national testing labs — rare for a supplement brand. NOW also holds Informed Sport certification, which tests for athletic banned substances, making products suitable for competitive athletes who require verified clean-label supplements.
