Garcinia Cambogia: Is a good herbal extract for weight lost

What Is Garcinia Cambogia?
Garcinia gummi-gutta is a small, pumpkin-shaped, yellow or greenish fruit.

The fruit is so sour that it is generally not eaten fresh, but rather used for its sour flavor in cooking

Garcinia cambogia supplements are made from extracts of the fruit’s peel.

The peel of the fruit contains high amounts of hydroxycitric acid (HCA), an active substance that has been shown to have some weight loss properties

The supplements generally contain 20–60% HCA. Nevertheless, studies show that those with 50–60% HCA may provide the most benefit.

Garcinia cambogia supplements are made from extracts of the peel of the Garcinia gummi-gutta fruit. They contain high amounts of hydroxycitric acid (HCA), which has been linked with weight loss benefits.
Garcinia Cambogia Supplements Cause Modest Weight Loss
Many high-quality human studies have tested the weight loss effects of garcinia cambogia.

How Garcinia Cambogia Can Help You Lose Weight and Belly Fat
Garcinia cambogia is a popular weight loss supplement.

It is derived from a fruit of the same name, also called Garcinia gummi-gutta or Malabar tamarind.

The peel of the fruit contains high amounts of hydroxycitric acid (HCA), which is the active ingredient believed to be responsible for most of the weight loss benefits (1).

This article is a detailed review of garcinia cambogia and whether it is something you should take in order to lose weight.

Some studies have found that garcinia cambogia causes modest weight loss, while other studies report no noticeable effects.
How Does It Help With Weight Loss?
There are two main ways garcinia cambogia is thought to help with weight loss.

1. It May Reduce Your Appetite
Studies in rats have shown that those given garcinia cambogia supplements tend to eat less

Similarly, some human studies have shown that garcinia cambogia is able to suppress appetite and make you feel full

How it reduces appetite isn’t fully known, but rat studies have suggested that the active ingredient in garcinia cambogia can increase serotonin in the brain

Theoretically speaking, since serotonin is a known appetite suppressant, higher blood levels of serotonin could reduce your appetite

However, these results need to be taken with a grain of salt. Other studies have found no difference in appetite between groups taking this supplement and those taking a placebo

It may be that these effects depend on the individual.

Some studies suggest that garcinia cambogia can suppress appetite by inhibiting serotonin uptake in the brain, while other studies have found no effects on appetite or hunger.
2. It May Block Fat Production and Reduce Belly Fat
The most important activity of garcinia cambogia is probably its effects on blood fats and the production of new fatty acids.

Studies in humans and animals have shown it may lower high levels of fat in the blood and reduce oxidative stress in the body.

One study also suggests it may be especially effective at reducing the accumulation of belly fat in overweight people.

Another study gave moderately obese individuals 2,800 mg of garcinia cambogia daily for eight weeks.

By the end of the study, the group had drastically reduced several risk factors for disease:

Total cholesterol levels: 6.3% lower
LDL (the “bad”) cholesterol levels: 12.3% lower
HDL (the “good”) cholesterol levels: 10.7% higher
Blood triglycerides: 8.6% lower
Fat metabolites: 125–258% more excreted in the urine
The main reason for these effects is thought to be that garcinia cambogia inhibits an enzyme called citrate lyase, which plays an important role in the production of fat.

By inhibiting citrate lyase, garcinia cambogia is thought to slow down or block fat production in the body. This may reduce blood fats and lower the risk of weight gain, two major disease risk factors.

 

However, some studies have indicated more serious side effects.

Animal studies have shown that a very high intake of garcinia cambogia can cause testicular atrophy — shrinking of the testicles. Studies in rats have shown it may also affect sperm production (38, 41, 42).

Additionally, there is one report of a woman who developed serotonin toxicity as a result of taking garcinia cambogia with her anti-depressant medications (43).

If you have a medical condition or are taking any medications, consult your doctor before you start taking the supplement.

Does Garcinia Cambogia Work? What the Studies Tell Us

Garcinia cambogia reviews, research results and weight loss testimonials have been mixed to say the least. By far the most well-publicized benefit of using garcinia cambogia is its ability to increase weight loss. Other claims that are commonly made about garcinia cambogia’s effects include:

  • loss of appetite or less of a desire to eat than usual
  • reduced cravings for unhealthy foods, such as sugar addiction
  • a more positive mood (including feeling happier, more energetic and less tired)
  • increased energy and concentration
  • stabilized blood sugar levels
  • improved bowel movements
  • reduced joint pains
  • improved cholesterol levels
  • stronger desire to be physically active

Most of the claims above have not been backed by scientific studies, however some have. Let’s review the benefits of garcinia cambogia that actually have some merit and seem to be effective in some manner.
