According to the head of the study, Dr. Joe Vinson:
"Based on our results, taking multiple capsules of green coffee extract a day -- while eating a low-fat, healthful diet and exercising regularly -- appears to be a safe, effective, inexpensive way to lose weight."In the study, the overweight people did not change their diets or exercise routines. They took green coffee extract doses of 700 mg and 1050 mg. After 22 weeks the participants lost an average of 17 pounds and experienced a 16% decrease in body fat levels. Since the participants cycled between a placebo, the low dose extract, and the high dose extract throughout the study Dr. Vinson notes that the weight loss could have been even faster.
Previous studies have shown evidence of the weight loss benefits of green tea but this was the first to use higher amounts of the substance. Some experts, including Dr. Vinson believe a compound found in unroasted coffee beans called chlorogenic acid may provide the powerful weight loss benefits. Besides being a powerful antioxidant, chlorogenic acid slows the release of glucose into the bloodstream after eating, which may provide significant benefits in terms of losing fat.
We say: We're pretty sure the prices of green coffee beans are about to shoot through the roof. Unlike acai, hoodia, and all the other "miracle" diet supplements out there green coffee extract appears to have some serious scientific proof backing it up!
