Product Information

• Name: Hydroxycitric acid lactone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Hydroxycitric acid lactone is a metabolic regulator, which is a derivative of hydroxycitric acid extracted primarily from the rind of the Garcinia cambogia fruit. This compound functions by inhibiting the enzyme ATP-citrate lyase, a critical catalyst in the citric acid cycle responsible for converting citrate to acetyl-CoA. This inhibition leads to reduced fatty acid synthesis, which may contribute to decreased lipogenesis and the potential management of body weight.
