The Amazing Weight Loss Magic Of Green Coffee

By Tiana Chandsawangbh


Drinking coffee has been part of many people's lives especially in the morning when a quick caffeine fix is needed. But are you aware that there is a specific type of coffee that can also help you shed the pounds? Enter green coffee bean extract - it's just the same coffee beans, except this one didn't undergo the roasting process. Its popularity is hugely credited to it being featured in the Dr. Oz show.

The secret to the powers of green coffee bean extract is a substance known as chlorogenic acid. While the roasting process used in coffee beans takes out its bitter taste, it also causes the chlorogenic acid to be reduced significantly, if not completely destroyed. There have been quite a number of scientific tests conducted on green coffee and all of them caused reduction of fat and body weight.

You will be able to find many weight-loss supplements in the market today that have been made with green coffee bean extract. With the help of chlorogenic acid, the absorption of glucose into bloodstream is slowed down and this causes fat absorption to be minimized. Before you purchase a supplement, make sure that you see either GCA (green coffee antioxidant) or Svetol listed in the label.

The study conducted by Dr. Oz on green coffee extract made use of people who took supplements containing at least 45% chlorogenic acid. It is not known whether the efficacy would be the same if something below 45% is to be used. Dosage can be anywhere from 200mg to 800mg. As for the Dr. Oz study, a dosage of 400mg was used and it was taken for a total of 3 times a day.

When choosing a weight loss supplement made with green coffee extract, make sure to check the list of ingredients. Stay away from any product that does not provide an ingredients list. There shouldn't be any hint of fillers or artificial ingredients in the label. If you find any ingredients in the list that sound weird or look off, it may be wise to call or email the manufacturer and ask about it.

To minimize risk, always buy from a reputable brand, particularly those that have been in the business for several years. Their product should have very good reviews and feedback from consumers. It is always a good idea to do some research on different brands and take note of the features, price, and reviews and then make an informed decision will work best with your situation.

When it comes to the side effects, it would be safe to assume that taking green coffee bean extract as intended would not yield any negative side effects. However, keep in mind that there is still some amount of caffeine in it and it is still possible to suffer some side effects if misused. Weight-loss supplements like this are generally not recommended for pregnant women and those with serious health problems.

Another thing to remember before you buy any green coffee bean extract is that there is still no substitute to having a balanced diet and proper exercise whenever you want to achieve ideal weight reduction. Diet supplements like this can indeed work, and you would be able to get results faster if you are consuming less calories than the amount you are burning when you exercise.
