Like other fibers, Chitosan is indigestible, is free of calories, and can reduce the transit time foods pass through the digestive system and out of the body. Therefore less fats, in general, including cholesterol, sterols, fatty acids, and essential fatty acids are available to be absorbed. Dietary fiber is usually deficient in modern diets where foods are more highly processed. Fiber tends to increase stool bulk, hydration and acts as a catalyst for colonic microflora, all of which speeds transit time, and produces a softer stool.
