If you spend any time at all watching daytime television, then you probably have seen that obesity is an issue that almost everyone is focused on these days, and so when a product like Garcinia Cambogia Extract comes to the forefront as an effective and safe diet alternative, people really pay attention. Here is some information on how Garcinia Cambogia works and why it is so popular right now.

The fruit is a bit sour and this is why it's not at all pleasant to consume. But still it is used by many Indian families as a cooking spice. After extensive testing in laboratories it has been observed that this product has minimum side effects and so you can easily use it for the purpose of weight loss.

The reason for this is because it helps your body burn fat and produce energy, even when you aren't doing anything else. It is also an incredible appetite suppressant, which is something that most people need.

Hydroxycitric acid also inhibits any production of alpha glucosidase in the intestines to stop the conversion of disaccharides and other starches into glucose. In addition, this acid will prevent sugars and carbohydrates from being converted into fats by successfully inhibiting any production of citrate lyase. In absence of these enzymes in the intestines, starches, sugars and carbohydrates are discarded as wastes through the colon.

Hydroxycitric acid will also suppress the appetite by increasing the level of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin acts as neuro-transmitter in the brain that makes people to feel good. Low levels of serotonin make people to feel anxious or depressed, and this could lead into reactive eating.

Obviously, the appetite suppressant aspect of this product is something that attracts a lot of people because when you go on a diet, you tend to be hungry all the time. According to recent studies, Garcinia Cambogia Extract will help to prevent that if you take it about an hour before you eat.

During the eight weeks of studies, participants given placebo lost 6 pounds while those who took HCA extract lost about 14 pounds. It has also been confirmed that when the users take the correct dosage of this extract they will not experience any side effect.

This extract is able to treat other illnesses such as high triglyceride levels and high LDL cholesterol. It is also effective in treating depression by increasing the level of serotonin in the brain.

Don't forget to go through this article at least once. It could certainly render you some crucial help in this regard.
