managing weight that's made from naturally occurring elements. its purpose is to assist adults dealing with excess weight or obesity, specifically those with a body mass index (bmi) ranging from 55 to 88 pounds (25 to 40 kg\/\u33a1), when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise.\r\n\r\nthis weight management solution, taken before meals, operates by targeting the gastrointestinal tract, promoting a sensation of fullness. it's noteworthy that plenity is non-systemic, meaning it concentrates solely on the gastrointestinal system rather than affecting the entire body. according to the manufacturer's claims, when you ingest the capsule, it is designed to help you eat less and lose weight by making you feel fuller. plenity works by absorbing the water consumed with it and interacting with the food you eat, leading to a prolonged feeling of satiety throughout the day.\r\n\r\nformerly available only through prescription, plenity was accessible via the roman telehealth platform,
