The Features That Separate Coffee Bean Extract From The Rest

By Marquis Lashbrook


Since it was featured in the Dr. Oz Show, much hype has been created in green coffee bean extract. The claims are all the same - the extract can promote weight loss, often without having to change one's diet and engaging in any physical activity. So with all this buzz surrounding this new magic weight loss supplement, how can you be sure that this is not just another overhyped product?

It is quite known that caffeine has something to do with losing weight, but the thing is, it is not the case with green coffee bean extract. Since green coffee is not roasted, it maintains a high level of the substance known as chlorogenic acid and it is the real deal when it comes to helping people lose weight. Chlorogenic acid is what reduces the body's absorption of fat and glucose, which ultimately leads to weight loss.

There were about 100 women who participated in the experiment conducted by Dr. Oz and it was shown that those who took the extract lost weight of two pounds on the average, for a period of 2 weeks and while taking 400mg of chlorogenic acid. In addition, the American Chemical Society hosted an experiment using the extract and the participants had an average of 17 pounds lost over the course of 22 weeks.

It is important to note that Dr. Oz refrained from recommending any particular brand of green coffee bean extract. Instead, the doctor mentioned guidelines as to how to choose a quality product. One of them is that the amount of chlorogenic acid has to be at least 45% to be effective. Chlorogenic acid may also be referred to in other products as either Svetol or GCA (green coffee antioxidant).

Because of the popularity of green coffee extracts, a lot of products are being sold on the market today to take advantage of it. However, not all extracts are of the same quality, which is why you need to do some research on the manufacturer that created it. It is also important to always read the labels and ensure that it is made from pure green coffee bean - no fillers, additives, or artificial ingredients.

There must be no additional caffeine in the green coffee bean extract besides the naturally occurring amount in it. It is said that there is around 20mg of caffeine for every 800mg of chlorogenic acid. Keep in mind that this amount is less than 20% as compared to the caffeine in a cup of regular coffee. Too much caffeine has been linked to insomnia, restlessness, nervousness, and increased heart rate.

Before you proceed to purchasing any green coffee bean extract, you should read more about the claims of the manufacturer about the product and make sure it is not exaggerated. They should also provide you with any possible side effects. A quality product will have a clear listing of ingredients, the manufacturer, and contact details should the consumer have any product concerns.

While it would be a great thing to simply take green coffee bean extract and see those extra pounds go away, it is not the best way to do it. It is still important to have a balanced diet, one that steers clear from processed foods and focuses on whole foods, especially fruits and vegetables. If you add in quality cardiovascular exercise to the mix, there's no reason not to get the body you've always wanted.
