The Real Deal About Green Coffee And Weight Loss

By Denna Kreidler


For many people, having a cup of coffee in the morning is a way to jumpstart their day, but did you know that there is a type of coffee that can also help you lose weight? If you take coffee beans that have not been roasted, what you get is green coffee beans. Green coffee bean extract has received much popularity as a weight-loss supplement after it was mentioned by Dr. Oz in his show.

So what makes green coffee bean extract so special compared with its regular counterpart? The thing that makes it special is its high amount of the substance called chlorogenic acid. Regular coffee beans have little to no chlorogenic acid particularly because of the roasting process it undergoes. Green coffee beans are extracted in its raw form and several tests show that it is very capable of weight reduction.

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.

Another important thing is that the supplement should contain a minimum of 45% chlorogenic acid. Anything below 45% may not be very effective for weight loss. You should also take note of the dosage, which can be anywhere from 200mg to 800mg per serving. Based on the study conducted by the Dr. Oz research team, the recommended was 400mg and taken 3 times a day.

Before making a purchasing decision with green coffee extract supplements, the ingredients list should be adequately reviewed. Be doubtful of those that do not provide an ingredients list. You should not find any type of artificial stuff or fillers too. If by any chance you notice any ingredient that sound too complex, you can always drop an email or call the manufacturer for clarifications.

To be on the safe side, it would be ideal to buy products that come from a well-known manufacturer. A good indicator would be the number of years they have been in the business and the feedback their products get. Of course you can always jot down several brands and then make an evaluation of each one based on factors such as features, price, and consumer feedback.

As for the side effects, supplements made with green coffee bean extract are said to be safe and free from any side effects. However, it is still important to remember that while its caffeine content may not be significant, taking it in large doses may cause some health problems. Taking diet supplements like this is generally not recommended for pregnant women or those with serious health problems.

If you really want to achieve the best results when using green coffee bean extract supplements, you should still consider adapting a healthy lifestyle, particularly a balanced diet and sufficient exercise. While you still might get some results by using the supplement alone, it won't be nearly as good if you combine it with healthy eating and burning of calories through exercise.
