Being too sour to eat, the rind of the fruit is used in Indian cooking as a spice. If you look for this supplement, it could be listed by it’s chemical name of hydroxycitric acid or simply HCA.

Hydroxycitric acid is not an appetite suppressant or is it a stimulant such as coffee. Stimulants and suppressants tend to affect the brain which can lead to unwanted side effects which could include uncontrolled eating (bing eating) when discontinued.

HCA seems to work best taken with chromium. Chromium is often used to help control blood sugar. As we get older, our bodies seem to have less chromium available.

Please consult your doctor before taking chromium. This is especially important if your have diabetes already.
