The Truth About Garcinia Cambogia's Efficacy In Weight Loss

By Carlene Roff


If you have been trying so hard to lose weight and have tried almost every weight-loss supplement being sold on the market, then you might want to hear about this scientific breakthrough on a plant known as garcinia cambogia. Medical experts have labeled its fruit as the "fat buster" and it is now being sold on the market as pure garcinia cambogia extract.

Garcinia cambogia is known by many names such brindleberry, gambooge, and assam fruit. It's fruit bears some resemblance to a small pumpkin, and is primarily grown in the Southeast Asian region, and in India as well. A research team led by Dr. Harry Preuss conducted an intensive study on this plant - they were able to conclude that garcinia cambogia can allow people to lose fat while keeping or promoting muscle growth.

One of the main reasons for the popularity of pure garcinia cambogia extract can be credited to the time when it was featured in the show of the well-known doctor, Dr. Oz. Because of his show that talks about living a healthy lifestyle and the big following he has, garcinia cambogia garnered a lot of attention from the public. His influence has certainly made people very much interested in this fruit.

Pure garcinia cambogia extract is sourced primarily from the fruit itself and its rind. Studies show that the key feature that allows this fruit to deliver weight loss miracles is a substance known as HCA or hydroxycitric acid. There is an abundance of HCA when you check out the ingredients list of many diet and weight loss supplements because of its fat-inhibiting powers.

Garcinia cambogia can help you take out the excess weight in your body by doing two things - one is by curbing your appetite and the other is by preventing fat from being created. What this means is that at any time your body is not creating fat, then it is burning it. It is also capable of reducing the stress and depression levels in your body, thereby helping to prevent binge eating caused by these factors.

With the appetite-suppressing powers of garcinia cambogia, it will be easier to manage the portions of food you eat. And since you are bound to feel full faster, you won't find yourself grabbing something to eat every now and then. It will also help you to make smarter choices when it comes to the food you eat. This fruit is also known to have powerful antioxidants that will help fight off cancer-causing free radicals.

With so many supplements out there being marketed as pure garcinia cambogia extract, it can be confusing to choose which one you should choose. According to Dr. Oz, there are some key features that you want the product to have and this includes having the main ingredient as garcinia cambogia, that it contains 50% HCA, with 1000mg as dosage, and manufactured without artificial ingredients , fillers or binders.

Keep in mind that despite all the weight-loss benefits being reported with the consumption of pure garcinia cambogia extract, it is not supposed to be used by itself. It is called a supplement for a reason and that means you have to use it in conjunction with something else. In this case, the best approach is to use it along with proper eating habits and a good exercise regimen to achieve results much faster.
