INSIDER Partner Series

Consumers are increasingly seeking out nutraceutical products designed to help them manage their weight and stabilize blood sugar. Clinical research has demonstrated the efficacy of GCA™, an all-natural green coffee bean extract, in metabolizing and utilizing carbohydrates, managing blood glucose and assisting in changing total body composition, reducing fat mass and increasing lean body mass. In addition, there is supporting evidence that this highly bioavailable, GRAS-affirmed extract, which is rich in soluble polyphenols and standardized to 50 percent chlorogenic acids, can play a supporting role in blood pressure, heart health and energy management during weight loss regimens.
