Garcinia Extract
Garcinia, also known as Garcinia cambogia, has the scientific name Garcinia cambogia or Garcinia atroviridis depending on the species. Garcinia trees are commonly found in southern India and Southeast Asia, which is why they are also known by other names such as Malabar Tamarind and Brindle Berry. There are many species in the Garcinia family, such as mangosteen, which is also a plant in the Garcinia family. Most plants in this family are found in the Indochina region.
Garcinia fruit extract, found in the fruit and fruit rind, contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA). This substance has properties that help reduce excess body fat. HCA helps inhibit the activity of the enzyme ATP-citrate lyase, which converts glucose from carbohydrates into stored fat. It can inhibit the lipogenesis process involved in the production of fatty acids and cholesterol in the Krebs cycle. It also helps reduce appetite without affecting the central nervous system.
