Popular Weight Loss Supplement Ingredients:
We plan on adding to this list as we get time, but here is our introductory list. The majority of supplements we see cover one of these bases, but occasionally we’ll see others. We’ll start with popular weight loss supplement ingredients from the herbal category, then move onto chemical.
Garcinia Cambogia Extract
Garcinia Cambogia is becoming an increasingly popular weight loss ingredient around the world. Garcinia is a small, pumpkin-like fruit that originates in Southeast Asia & India. Only until recent years was the fruits weight loss properties discovered. A team of scientists conducted a series of tests on the fruit that lead to a miraculous conclusion! Inside the rind of the fruit is a natural, chemical substance called hydroxy citric acid (HCA). HCA is a powerful ingredient that works naturally to suppress appetite & cravings by triggering receptors in the brain causing users to feel full. HCA also increase energy levels to keep you feeling motivated and focused. This works by HCA turning fat into glycogen. Glycogen is a natural energy source in the body. When purchasing products containing garcinia cambogia, always make sure it is 100% pure ingredients to ensure results.
Forskolin Extract
Forskolin, the root of the Indian coleus plant, is another popular weight loss ingredient. The plant has been used for traditional herbal medicine remedies around the world. The root of the plant holds the weight loss properties. Modern research has shown that forskolin has an effect on users’ fat metabolism. In other words, this supplement ingredient stimulates the release of fat storage from fat cells. Most products containing forskolin have an additional calorie deficit ingredient to help accelerate weight loss while using forskolin. The benefits of using this ingredient include, the suppression of appetite, the acceleration of digestion and an increase in fat burn. The best part about forskolin is that while fat is reduced, muscle mass remains preserved. When purchasing this product, make sure the extract is pure in order to receive the best results.
Green Coffee Bean Extract
I’m sure many of you are familiar with green coffee, but did you know the benefits the beans have on weight loss? Green coffee is simply unroasted coffee beans. However, before coffee beans are roasted, they are potent in rich antioxidants that do wonders for weight loss. Chlorogenic acid is a main compound in the bean that helps support your overall health. Chlorogenic acid helps to lower blood pressure, increase energy levels, reduce the absorption of carbohydrates and boost metabolism. When taken as directed, weight loss can accelerate by 38%. As with most supplement ingredients, always make sure you are purchasing natural green coffee extract.
Caffeine
Caffeine is another one of the most popular weight loss ingredients. Why? Because it has a natural thermogenic effect. Caffeine is a stimulant, and that means it speeds up your heart rate. This can increase body heat, even if the vasoconstriction effect can make you feel colder in your extremities. So a lot of companies rely heavily on the ingredient to help boost the metabolism of calories during exercise. But it also has some risks. As it elevates the heart rate, it isn’t suitable for people with heart conditions, or people that are already engaging in intense workouts. It does work, it’s just one that people need to be safe with.
