Does Green Coffee Help in Weight Loss?

Green coffee is slowly but steadily gaining popularity as a weight-loss supplement. Before we understand how green coffee works for weight loss, it is significant to know what is green coffee and how it differs from our regular cup of brown coffee.

What is green coffee?

Green coffee is prepared using green coffee beans, which are nothing, but unroasted coffee beans. As compared to roasted coffee beans, green coffee extracts have less caffeine. Therefore, the content of caffeine is less in green coffee as compared to a regular cup of coffee.

Aids in weight loss!

Coming back to our main discussion on green coffee and weight loss, it is the presence of chlorogenic acid in the green coffee beans which helps in the process of weight loss. Caffeine, for one, aids weight loss by increasing our metabolic rate and fat burning. It also helps in suppressing the appetite a little, thus, helping you eat less. While green coffee contains caffeine, it is comparatively less than regular coffee, and therefore saves you from the unpleasant effects of caffeine such as a migraine headache, insomnia, stomach upset, etc. Hence, green coffee gives the benefit of caffeine and weight loss in a safe and secure way of assisting good health.

However, there is yet another reason for linking green coffee and weight loss. As the green coffee beans contain chlorogenic acid, this is thought to be a major active component aiding weight loss. And while chlorogenic acid has other positive effects on your health like it lowers blood pressure and has antioxidant effects, it is gifted with weight control and weight loss benefits. Although, it is important to note that the roasted coffee beans reduce the acid content, thus making green coffee beans extract (which are unroasted) even more essential as a weight-loss supplement, primarily due to the presence of chlorogenic content.

What is chlorogenic acid?

This is a phytochemical (biologically active compound found in plants) present in coffee and coffee beans. Chlorogenic acid was first discovered by scientists in the 1930s and it is believed that this is a natural supplement with its highest concentration in green coffee beans and its extracts.

Weight loss properties of green coffee

Chlorogenic acid or CGA is a type of anti-oxidant that provides scientific evidence to establish the link between green coffee and weight loss. It is believed that CGA inhibits the absorption of glucose in the small intestine and also prevents the release of glucose into the bloodstream from the liver. This prevention of the release of glucose makes the body rely on fat cells for obtaining energy in place of carbohydrates (contained in glucose). The whole process eventually leads to loss of body fat as the fat in the body gets used as an expendable energy resource. Thus, chlorogenic acid promotes weight loss by being a catalyst for fat oxidation.

This means the acid is an agent which initialises the process of breaking down the stored fat into smaller parts, and which can further be used as energy by the body. If the fat (the collected lipid molecules) is not broken into smaller pieces, then these molecules simply stack up and rest in your body leading to fat accumulation in the body.

More benefits

Chlorogenic acid is also believed to induce fat loss in the body by modifying blood cholesterol and triglycerides levels. Triglycerides are a type of fat found in your blood that increases as a result of high blood pressure, high blood sugar, leading to fat gain around the waist. And since chlorogenic acid helps lower the blood sugar and also balances your blood glucose levels, it is supposed to be able to reduce the level of triglycerides, thus preventing fat accumulation around the waist.

To sum up, the benefits of green coffee assisted weight loss is as follows:

• It helps in fat oxidation
• It releases the stored fatty acids
• It improves fat metabolism
• It reduces the release of sugar in the blood
• It improves body metabolism
• It reduces body BMI by preventing fat absorption
• It is an appetite suppressant as it makes you feel full for a long time

In addition, various researches on green coffee extracts convey it categorically as a very effective antioxidant substance since it contains polyphenol antioxidant, mainly the chlorogenic acid. Various other benefits are:

• It fights inflammation in the body
• It improves blood circulation
• It manages bad cholesterol levels
• It regulates the hormones related to obesity.
