If you are curious how Garcinia is influencing so much on health, here is a list of four main ingredients which are bound to all Garcinia supplements, just in different percentages:

• Hydroxycitric acid (HCA)
• Potassium
• Chromium
• Calcium

Hydroxycitric acid is the main ingredient in any Garcinia supplement; it accounts for 50% to 60% of the product. This active ingredient is said to have some powerful weight loss properties, as it inhibits the process of converting sugar and carbohydrates into fat.
Potassium is another ingredient you will find in Garcinia products. This ingredient helps weight loss by converting food into energy, boosting metabolism and developing muscles. Most Garcinia products are fortified with potassium to help enhance some of the body’s functions.
Termed as the fat-loss gate keeper, Chromium, which is a trace mineral, plays a vital role in improving insulin action in the body.
Lastly, we have calcium. Studies show that low levels of calcium encourage weight gain: this ingredient seeks to ensure that your body has enough calcium.
