Garcinia Cambogia (also known as Malabar tamarind) is a small tropical fruit shaped like a pumpkin that has quickly gained a reputation as “The Holy Grail of Weight Loss.” Native to Indonesia, this fruit has been eaten by local populations for centuries. Several studies are indicating that Garcinia Cambogia can help promote healthy weight loss as well as suppress appetite. It’s the active ingredient in the fruits rind, hydroxycitric acid (HCA) that is effective at blocking the conversion of sugars and starches into fats thereby inhibiting fat storage. How it works, is that when carbohydrates enter the body, enzymes either convert them into energy or store them as fat, HCA blocks these enzymes (specifically citrate lyase) from storing carbs as fat, allowing them to be burned off. It can also help emotional eaters since it increases levels of the brain chemical serotonin which may make one less hungry as well improve sleep and mood. Overall, it is always a better choice to go with a natural fruit like Garcinia Cambogia rather than a dangerous weight loss pill.
