1. Source
This product is selected from the dried rind of Garcinia Cambogia (scientific name: *Garcinia cambogia*) native to southern India. It is refined through a water extraction and alcohol precipitation process, preserving the natural active ingredients with no residual organic solvents.
2. Active Ingredient & Specification
- Active Ingredient: Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA)
- Specification: ≥60% (Test Method: HPLC)
-Physical Characteristics: 80-mesh fine powder, good flowability, 100% passing through 80-mesh sieve, good water solubility and formulation compatibility.
3. Key Mechanism of Action
HCA inhibits the activity of ATP-citrate lyase through competitive inhibition, acting as a "blocker" in the metabolic pathway from carbohydrates to fat, thereby reducing fat synthesis in the body. Additionally, clinical data shows it increases satiety and reduces appetite.
