A revolutionary approach to weight management

Citrin® is Sabinsa’s trademarked name for an unique calcium salt of (-) hydroxycitric acid ((-) HCA), an effective weight loss phytonutrient which Sabinsa Corporation was the first to standardize. To enable versatile applications of (-) hydroxycitric acid in functional food products and include the essential health benefits of the mineral potassium, Sabinsa later developed (-) hydroxycitric acid in a soluble form, as the potassium salt Citrin®K. Sabinsa Corporation introduced three new soluble salt forms of (-) hydroxycitric acid in 1998. Citrin®Mg combines the weight loss effects of (-) hydroxycitric acid with the health benefits of magnesium, an essential mineral nutrient for metabolic functions and energy release mechanisms in the body. To provide essential mineral combinations nested in a weight control product, Sabinsa introduced Citrin®Mg/K and Citrin® Ca/K. All these multi-functional products have potential applications as effective nutritional supplements, particularly in sports nutrition.

Citrin is a commercial fruit extract from the rind of this fruit. Garcinia Cambogia's rind is rich in the substance hydroxy citric acid, which is helpful for weight. It suppresses the appetite and induces weight loss through thermogenic action.

The active principle of Citrin is hydroxycitric acid, which is in the peel of Garcinia cambogia.

Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats and lipids. At the cellular level, molecules trick the citrate lyase enzyme. The receptor sites of citrate lyase enzymes are filled with hydroxycitric acid. Which this means, fewer fatty acids are synthesized, making less fat available for cellular storage, and the outcome of this is in less body fat build-up in the liver and fat tissue. This result's in increased amounts of energy at the cellular level and then is available to more rapidly degrade free fatty acids.

Hydroxycitric acid suppresses appetite therefore it reduces food intake. When you consume food, the body starts to break down carbohydrates into glucose. The liver functions to make sure that the blood constantly has sufficient glucose to fuel the brain with energy. An overload in glucose molecules would normally break down into fat or cholesterol. On the other hand, hydroxycitric acid for the time being inhibits the citrate lyase enzyme and excess glucose is changed to glycogen in the liver. When glucose and glycogen reach a certain level, the brain gets a signal of being full, which than, suppresses appetite and reduces the desire for more food.

How Garcinia Cambogia Works

Garcinia Cambogia reduces the conversion of carbohydrates into stored fat by inhibiting certain enzyme processes. When less fat is available for use and slowed down, the body burns calories at an accelerated pace. Doctors found in a clinical study that people using Garcinia Cambogia lost weight at 2/12 times the rate of people not using it. They experienced a curbed appetite and less of a tendency to "nibble," and an increase in energy.
