Kokkoapo EX Tablets (category II drug)

**Product Description**
For abdominal fat and constipation

The “abdominal fat type” refers to individuals who tend to accumulate fat around the abdomen due to overeating, frequent snacking, and a metabolism that cannot keep up. Additionally, this type is often prone to constipation due to irregular gastrointestinal function.

Kokkoapo EX Tablets help reduce excess fat by suppressing excessive appetite and boosting lipid metabolism.
It also alleviates constipation by softening stools and promoting smooth bowel movements.
Through these actions, it detoxifies* the body of excess fat, reducing excess fat around the abdomen and throughout the body.
*Detox refers to the improvement of obesity by eliminating excess fat and waste products.
