What Is Garcinia Cambogia?
Garcinia Cambogia – also called Garcinia gummi-gutta or Malabar tamarind – is a small greenish fruit that’s usually grown in South East Asia, South India and Central Africa. The peel or rind of the fruit is rich in hydroxycitric acid (HCA) which is known to have weight-loss properties. HCA inhibits the enzyme citrate-lyase in our bodies. This enzyme is vital in converting carbohydrates into fat (a process called lipogenesis). By inhibiting this enzyme, the HCA in garcinia cambogia helps increase fat metabolism and controls weight. It is because of this property that garcinia cambogia is often hailed as ‘Holy Grail’ of weight management.

Here’s How Garcinia Cambogia Helps In Reducing Weight
The extract of garcinia cambogia helps weight management in two ways: firstly, by reducing body fat and secondly by suppressing appetite.
By Reducing Body Fat
Overeating and sedentary lifestyle can lead to an unhealthy accumulation of fat in the body, and nowhere is it more apparent than in the abdomen. Garcinia cambogia is known to reduce weight, fat mass, and visceral fat (also called abdominal fat). In a latest study conducted in 2018 on 214 overweight and obese patients, a dose of garcinia cambogia extract (twice a day), when given for three to six months, resulted in a decrease in weight, fat mass, and visceral fat. The subjects were also found to have a better metabolism as expressed in basal metabolic rate.
By Suppressing Appetite
The active compound in garcinia cambogia, HCA, is known to be an appetite suppression agent . Studies suggest that HCA can increase serotonin in the brain. And serotonin is a neurotransmitter known for suppressing appetite. A sense of satiety keeps one from overeating and may lead to weight loss over a period of time.
Here’s How Green Tea Extract Helps In Losing Weight
Green Tea is loaded with antioxidants called catechins. One of the most significant of these catechins is EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate) which can have very positive effects on metabolism. Green Tea also contains a small amount of caffeine which has appetite suppressant properties.
Green Tea Helps In Weight Management
Our body uses carbohydrates, fats, and proteins as fuel source. The burning of fats is called fat oxidation. It has been scientifically observed that green tea extract increases fat oxidation during moderate-intensity exercise. In a study conducted on healthy humans, it was found that the “average fat oxidation rates were 17% higher after ingestion of green tea extract” as opposed to placebo. Another study confirms that the catechins and caffeine in green tea work synergistically to burn calories by inhibiting certain enzymes and thereby stimulating thermogenesis. Moreover, in a meta-analysis of 11 different articles, it was found that the active compound EGCG of green tea and caffeine together have a small positive effect on weight loss and weight maintenance. One more study conducted on 132 persons, found the effectiveness of green tea in exercise-induced weight management.
Green Tea Can Help Suppress Appetite
Green tea extract helps in suppressing appetite. Lesser appetite discourages overeating and keeps weight in check. A study confirms the effectiveness of green tea catechins in suppressing hunger.
