The Weight Loss Benefits of Green Coffee Bean

Published on August 22, 2012 by Dr. Edward F. Group III, DC, ND


Green coffee bean extract, produced from the green beans of the arabica plant, is a relatively new ingredient to weight loss products that has been getting strong attention; even being featured on the Dr. Oz program. This attention is not unfounded, green coffee bean extract has a number of health benefits, in particular as a proven effective weight loss aid.
How Does Green Coffee Bean Work?

Green coffee bean contains polyphenols, including chlorogenic acids, which, like grape seed extract and green tea, have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that help the body neutralize harmful free radicals. Research has also shown that the chlorogenic acid in green coffee bean has an antihypertensive effect on rats and humans and helps to lower blood pressure [1] [2] [3].

Unlike coffee beverages, green coffee bean extract is low in caffeine and is not a stimulant. Chlorogenic acids are also destroyed when coffee beans are roasted and their benefits are not available in coffee drinks.

Chlorogenic acids support the weight loss benefits of green coffee bean in a couple different ways. First, they help balance blood sugar by inhibiting the release of glucose within the body. Secondly, chlorogenic acids boost the metabolic output of the liver, which burns more fat. This dual mechanism works to support lean body mass by preventing the absorption of fat and hindering weight gain.

How to Lose Weight the Natural Way
Research Indicates Weight Loss Benefits of Green Coffee Bean

In 2006, a study published in BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine examined the inhibition of fat accumulation and weight gain in mice that were given green coffee bean extract. Researchers noted that the mice had reduced visceral fat content and body weight. It was concluded that green coffee bean extract may be effective against weight gain and fat accumulation by preventing fat absorption and activating fat metabolism in the liver [4].

In 2011, Gastroenterology Research and Practice published a meta-analysis of 5 studies which had examined green coffee bean extract as a weight loss supplement. Although it was noted that more research was appropriate, it was also concluded that aggregate data showed a significant difference in body weight in the subjects of the studies who had supplemented with GCE, compared with placebo, and that evidence indicates that GCE can promote weight loss [5].

This conclusion was supported by an early 2012 study published in The Diabetes Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity journal that followed a group of 16 adults who supplemented with green coffee bean for a period of 12 weeks, without making any dietary changes. The results were significantly astounding. During this time, subjects lost an average of 10.5% of overall body weight and 16% of overall body fat, without any reported negative side effects [6].

When it comes to losing weight, proper diet and exercise are paramount to success. However, research shows that adding a supplement like green coffee bean extract can increase weight loss potential, in addition to the antioxidant benefit. As with all supplements, for green coffee bean to be effective, it must be a pure, organic 100% high grade coffee bean extract supplement manufactured in the US in an FDA approved facility with laboratory tests certifying the product’s potency and quality.

Chewing coffee beans can freshen your breath
Coffee may not be the first thing you reach for when looking to freshen your breath, however if you have been eating onions and garlic then it may be just what you need. If you haven’t got a toothbrush to hand, then chewing on roasted coffee beans can help extinguish onion or garlic breath. Other good breath fresheners include parsley or mint leaves.
 
Not known to many, drinking coffee is one of the causes for acute gaut attack. BEWARE!
 
Drinking coffee is benefit for health but excessive drinking of coffee dangerous for health. Coffee enhance the brain functions and boost metabolism because it contains caffeine.
 
Studies have shown that reading and believing in studies conducted people who claimed to be studying will deteriorate one's brain power. In another words, you'll turn stupid if you believe in every study.
