Is Garcinia Cambogia the Holy Grail of Dieting?

Have you heard about this little weight loss supplement by the name of garcinia cambogia? It's a fruit that resembles a miniature pumpkin, originates from Southeast Asia, and the extract from its fruit has become very popular in lots of natural weight loss products. Research on this fruit is still going on, but there has been a study in the 'Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism Journal' that showed people adding garcinia cambogia to their diet, and losing three times more weight than with just exercise alone.

The cause of all this excitement centers around hydroxycitric acid (HCA), the extract from the fruit, which reportedly keeps appetite in check while turning on the fat-burning process. Dieters are claiming unbelievable fat-loss results, though ongoing studies show no substantial proof that garcinia extract triggers fat loss. However, there are conclusive studies that do show substantial weight loss in animals, giving dieters hope that it really does help people with their weight control issues, too.

Weight loss experts believe that HCA in garcinia cambogia inhibits citrate lyase, an enzyme found naturally in the body, that would normally help turn excess carbs into fat. By neutralizing the citrate lyase enzyme, the body goes ahead and burns those extra carbs instead of storing them. Again, this theory has not been proven, yet there is excitement and optimism that the HCA in garcinia extract could be every dieters dream, and a very potent weapon in the fight against obesity.

The amazing claims being attributed to garcinia cambogia

The extract from this fruit is advertising some mighty big claims. Some product labels are stating that garcinia cambogia helps boost body metabolism, ensuring faster fat burning. Others state that appetites are suppressed by the extract while some say the liver's production of cholesterol is inhibited. Now these statements may be true. But some garcinia users are saying that they're seeing results without dieting or exercising! Is there anyone dieting and living in the real world that believes that one? No.

Of course, there's no magic diet pill, but that's the mantra for weight loss products, isn't it? So the verdict is still out, so to speak. Be a little cautious here, for like any product, there is some downside to taking garcinia cambogia. If you have some digestive problems to begin with, garcinia may cause you some gastrointestinal discomfort like nausea, diarrhea, even intestinal pain. It's acidic, so some people may have an allergic reaction to the Hydroxycitric acid. Always listen to your body, and be aware of how a new supplement may adversely affect you, before believing the miraculous claims attributed to garcinia extract or any supplement.
