(-)-Hydroxycitric acid

Description:

(-)-Hydroxycitric acid (HCA) is a naturally occurring organic compound primarily found in the fruit of the Garcinia cambogia tree. It is a derivative of citric acid and is characterized by its ability to inhibit the enzyme ATP-citrate lyase, which plays a role in fat synthesis. This inhibition can potentially aid in weight management by reducing fat accumulation and increasing energy expenditure. HCA is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a slightly acidic taste. It is often marketed as a dietary supplement for weight loss and appetite suppression. In addition to its potential metabolic effects, (-)-hydroxycitric acid has been studied for its antioxidant properties and its role in promoting healthy cholesterol levels. Safety assessments indicate that it is generally recognized as safe when consumed in appropriate amounts, although excessive intake may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort. As with any supplement, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before use, especially for individuals with underlying health conditions or those taking other medications.

Hydroxycitric acid Ca

CAS: 27750-10-3

Hydroxycitric acid Ca is a calcium salt of hydroxycitric acid, which is an organic compound derived from the rind of the Garcinia cambogia fruit. This acid is recognized for its role as an inhibitor of ATP citrate lyase, a key enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and lipogenesis. By inhibiting this enzyme, hydroxycitric acid Ca interferes with the conversion of carbohydrates into fat, thereby reducing fat accumulation in the body. Additionally, it is associated with increased serotonin levels in the brain, which can aid in appetite suppression and enhanced metabolism.
