It began to boom recently and is continuously shocking the users by its amazing results.

Thus, we’ll here get to know what to believe for our health and what not to!
What does green coffee bean extract do for you?
Green Coffee beans extract are actually the coffee beans that weren’t roasted.
Coffee beans have a compound named as chlorogenic acid that claims to have an antioxidant effect also helps in lowering the blood pressure also helps to lose weight.
But when the coffee beans are roasted it reduces the chlorogenic effect that is found to be helpful in reducing weight.
These green coffee beans became well-known as a weight-loss supplement which can easily be found online in the form of a pill or you can also find one in a health food store.
How do you make green coffee beans from unroasted?
To make a cup full of green coffee:
Soak 20 to 25 Grams of green coffee beans overnight.
Take the content and dry the Beans with a clean and fine towel.
Now you have to crush the beans to make the granules.
Then take a pan and add a cup of water in coarse beans and boil it over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, now remove it from heat and let it cool, filter the content to get rid of the coarse beans and your coffee is ready to be served.
Also, you can find extracted green coffee bean capsules which can be taken orally with water with your meals.
Green coffee benefits and side effects are still argumentative.
There have been many claims regarding whether you need not diet and exercise as this does it all.
But I will suggest you give proper nutrients and healthy food to your body and at least 30 minutes of exercise daily to have a better outcome and a fit body.
If you treat and feed your body well then, your body will also treat you well over time, just like karma hit 😀

Green coffee contains 3 major components:
- CHLOROGENIC ACID – Chlorogenic acid activates and improves the processing of fatty acids into the liver, simplifying fat splitting in the intestine and inhibits their absorption into the bloodstream.
- CAFFEINE – Caffeine is a powerful natural anti-oxidant. It strengthens the walls of blood vessels and protects our body against free radicals by accelerating the process of skin regeneration.
- POLYPHENOLS – The substance improves the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract thereby removing excess fluids and the body gets cleaned in a natural way. Also contains tannin which makes the immune system stronger.
It also contains 4 additional components –

Does green coffee beans really work for weight loss?
I have tried to find out studies which may show 100% effectiveness of green coffee bean extracts but I doubt this supplement really works!!!
See guys I really want you to make the right decision before purchasing any supplement especially weight loss supplements.
As a lot of companies claims that their supplements work but as a consumer myself and a fitness consultant it’s important to know the truth…
A study was done by Samadi et al. ‘Green Coffee Bean Extract as Weight Loss Supplement’, reviewed the efficacy of green coffee on 30 pre-obese adults and the significant result was found.
The results of the study showed significant reductions in body weight, body mass index, and percent body fat, but with no significant changes in dietary intakes over the course of the study.
What is the side effects of green coffee bean extract?
Green coffee benefits and side effects go hand in hand, but it is considered safe when taken orally appropriately.
Green coffee extracts standardized to 50% chlorogenic acid taken in doses up to 600 mg daily is recommended by examine.com.
The optimal dosage for green coffee bean extract is still not known at this moment.
It is very essential to understand that green coffee contains caffeine, similar to regular brewed coffee.
Therefore, green coffee can cause similar caffeine-related side effects.
Caffeine can cause insomnia, nervousness, and restlessness, stomach upset, nausea and vomiting, increased heart and breathing rate, and other side effects.
Consuming large amounts of coffee might also cause headache, anxiety, agitation, ringing in the ears, and irregular heartbeats.
If you feel any of these you must consult your doctor and doctors don’t recommend it to children below the age of 18 and pregnant or lactating women.
Green coffee may not be good for people who have:
- Glaucoma
- Anxiety
- Diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Osteoporosis
- Bleeding disorders
