Livestrong Foundation: Nature’s Appetite Suppressants

(Livestrong) Oct. 27, 2010 -The Livestrong Foundation which was created as "the definitive daily health, fitness and lifestyle destination" reported on the weight loss abilities of natural appetite suppressants like fruit extract Garcinia Cambogia and Bitter Orange which are both found in CaféFit fortified coffee blends.

Garcinia Cambogia was found to significantly reduce appetite which with healthy diet and exercise can dramatically improve weight loss. The test found that hydroxycitric acid, similar to that found in oranges, can prevent carbohydrates from being stored as fat. Garcinia Cambogia is found in CaféFit Dieting Blend.

Bitter Orange Extract, which are frequently found in weight loss supplements, have been known to increase heart rate and stimulate a natural fat burning process in the body known as thermogenesis. This process occurs mostly when people are exercising.

Mayo Clinic: Can Coffee Help People Lose Weight?

(Mayo Clinic) Oct. 15, 2010 - Mayo Clinic is a not-for-profit medical research organization that provides health-related information to patients and health-related resources like doctor referrals and even educational services. One of the members of their expert panel Katherine Zeratsky, a registered dietitian, commented on the weight loss qualities of caffeine and coffee. She suggested theories about caffeine's weight loss qualities include appetite suppression and calorie burning.

She stated that, "A few studies indicate that drinking coffee or tea with caffeine may slightly boost weight loss or prevent weight gain". She tempered this statement with the acknowledgement that at this time there isn't enough evidence to conclusively confirm this statement but through early studies and observation it seems logical.

Caffeine's fat burning qualities are stimulated by a process called "thermogenesis", which is the process by which "your body generates heat and energy from digesting food". While she does not reference the particular studies, she states that there are many studies out there that confirm these theories.
