Garcinia Cambogia has been creating a major stir in media. The super food has doctors and scientists around the globe excited about its weight loss ability without patients and clients having to change their diets.
Garcinia Cambogia is a pumpkin shaped fruit (the tamarind fruit) which grows in Southeast Asia and India. The magic ingredient linked to weight loss is the natural active compound called Chlorogenic Acid. Chlorogenic Acid helps to slow the absorption of fat.

Dr. Rich Scheckenback stated on the Doctor Oz show that “Garcinia is an exceptionally effective fat buster. It inhibits the production of fat in the body, and when the body is not making fat its burning fat”
A recent clinical study done on Garcinia Cambogia was conducted by Dr. Harry G Preuss of the Georgetown University Medical Center. This study followed 30 obese patients who were supplemented with HCA 2800mg of Garcinia Cambogia and strictly monitored for 8 weeks. On average, the participants lost a large amount of weight within a short period of time.
One of Garcinia Cambogia’s key ingredients, Hydoxycitric acid (HCA) is known for many benefits. It can increase serotonin which helps with emotional eaters getting a good night's sleep, improving their moods. HCA also acts as an appetite suppressant.
Miracle Garcinia Cambogia moves towards glycogen, which is an energy source that helps burn more fat. As fat stops being produced the result becomes evident. By managing the stress hormone known as cortisol, you start to manage your fat.
Benefits include: potent fat burner, effective appetite suppressant, tremendous weight loss results, increase in focus energy throughout the day and no crash, not to mention it works quickly, has proven results and comes at an affordable price.

Dr. Julie Chen adresses why she would recommend this supplement to her patients, she states “I do primarily because it’s got other health benefits, that’s extremely important to me because we’re not looking at just weight loss, but overall health improvement, and they saw in the studies that patients had a decrease in total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, somewhere between 10 to 30 percent, and HDL which is the good cholesterol”.
If you are serious about losing weight safely and effectively, there are some things you need to look out for when purchasing your Garcinia Cambogia Extract supplements. Dr. Omar highlights the following points:
-
The words “Garcinia Cambogia (HCA)” appear on the bottle
-
The supplement contains at least 50% HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid)
-
Your Daily Serving Size is at least 1000 MG
- There are No Fillers, Binders or Artificial Ingredients
The downside is there has been some recent studies highlighting the side-effects of the product. "Most brands of garcinia cambogia extract diet pills, including big names, have failed independent laboratory quality and quantity testing," says medical weight-loss expert Sue Decotiis, M.D." Also, there have been no large-scale trials comparing garcinia to placeboes or other supplements. There probably will never be any objective data on garcinia."
What's more, a 2005 study in Food and Chemical Toxicology found that high doses of garcinia cambogia extract caused testicular atrophy and toxicity in mice. Even if you don't have testicles, that's sure to make you cringe.
