Pure green coffee bean extract is the concentrated form of the familiar coffee bean, but before that bean has been roasted. At first blush, that might sound like nothing more than another way to wake up in the morning. In fact, it is an increasingly popular alternative solution for those of us suffering from being overweight, and has shown promise in addressing diabetes as well.

The formal name of the active ingredient is Chlorogenic acid, or more familiarly, CGA. One good piece of advice to those deciding between brands is to make sure the actual Chlorogenic content is approximately fifty percent, if not somewhat more. The typical advised dosage is between four hundred and eight hundred milligrams daily, administered in one or two pills.

There have now been clinical studies demonstrating body fat losses upwards of fifteen percent in test subjects, as well as a fifteen percent drop in total body weight. Notably, these dramatic reductions took place in the absence of the subjects' participation in any new diet or new exercise routine. Individual claims of weight loss totaling six or seven pounds per week are not uncommon.

One particularly well-respected, three-month study offers a window into CGA's usefulness. It demonstrated that the acid enhances the natural fat burning powers of the human body. It also improves its ability to regulate sugar levels as well. Furthermore, the study revealed that CGA gives the body a booster shot of antioxidants to help prevent disease.

One particularly noteworthy feature of this active ingredient, especially attractive to anyone knowledgeable about the problems involved with amphetamine use, is that CGA has no "speed" side effects. It offers weight loss without making one's pulse race. Nor do users suffer mood swings, perspiration, heart palpitation, or the jitters. The acid has the specific physiological effect of interrupting the human liver's secretion of glucose energy. That seemingly minor alteration boost's our body's natural fat burning power.

CGA's demonstrated ability to aid sugar regulation makes it a potential asset in the fight so many of us wage against diabetes. It has been shown in clinical studies to lower blood pressure as well as bad cholesterol levels. Therefore it isn't surprising that this promising compound has come to the attention, not just of diabetics, but of many others suffering from cardiovascular disease and a wide range of other ailments associated with obesity.

Savvy health shoppers should keep in mind that the results being given are results for the active ingredient. Little should be inferred from these results about any one of the innumerable herbal or pharmaceutical compounds currently on the market. Many of these supplements contain additives such as grapefruit extract, apple cider vinegar, acai berry, or kelp. They are also potentially the source of side effects not typical of the active acid in green coffee bean extract.

Again, as with George Washington Carver and the peanut, we are in a position to benefit from scientists taking a second look at a familiar agricultural product. Something that has been helping modern man and woman get the day started for centuries has now yielded a way to help keep them healthy and slim. Given all this, it is no surprise that pure green coffee bean extract has become one of the most promising alternative solutions in the market.
