For centuries the Garcinia Cambogia tree of South Asia has yielded up its fruit as a dietary aid in the challenge of weight reduction. The small pumpkin shaped fruit is a rich source of hydroxycitric acid, the active agent that aids in weight loss. Weight management is important to safeguarding health and form. As a bonus, hydroxycitric acid has a long history of safe human consumption.

How does hydroxycitric acid work?

• Normally the body converts into glycogen, the carbohydrates from meals and snacks that cannot be used immediately for energy. Glycogen is the storage form of carbohydrates, deposited in muscles and the liver. When the glycogen stores are reasonably full, additional carbohydrates are then converted into body fat, thus helping to prevent added fat storage on the body. The remaining carbohydrates are forced to be accommodated as more glycogen in the liver. This added glycogen load in the liver stimulates a longer lasting neuro-signal to the brain of satisfaction, thus suppressing appetite longer.
• Some researchers think that hydroxycitric acid facilitates the burning of already stored body fat. When the body is required to make fat, it tends to reduce its ability to burn stored fat. By blocking the production of new fat from carbohydrates, the body will burn more of its stored fat.
• Hydroxycitric acid is an effective aid to weight loss but not a substitute for meaningful calorie reductions, especially from fat and weekly exercise. Targeting rapid weight loss is bad advice as the body rebels by holding back. Be patient and steady. Fat loss is also aided by consuming three grams of lax seed oil daily and 400 micrograms of chromium supplementation daily.
