1. Brief introduction
What is chlorogenic acid? It can reduce body fat, anti-oxidation, anti-aging, regulate blood sugar, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory, anti-virus, etc. Chlorogenic acid is one of the widely distributed phenolic compounds in plants, and it is internationally recognized as "plant gold" Among them, foods with high chlorogenic acid content mainly include yacon, chicory, blueberries, coffee, sunflower kernels, cherries, eggplants, apples, pears, etc. 2. Reduce body fat Many people say that drinking coffee to lose weight, and even coffee bean extract is used as a weight loss drug. In fact, the major contributor to the weight loss effect is chlorogenic acid! ! According to tests done by Ae Sim Cho et al, chlorogenic acid significantly reduced body weight, visceral fat mass, plasma leptin and insulin levels, triglycerides in liver and heart, and cholesterol in adipose tissue and heart. Moreover, chlorogenic acid can also significantly reduce triglyceride content in adipose tissue. In another trial, 16 overweight adults received high-dose chlorogenic acid (1050 mg), low-dose CGA (700 mg), or placebo daily for 6 weeks each for 6 weeks. Body fat percentage, heart rate, and BMI all decreased, and the BMI of the six overweight individuals decreased to the normal range. 3. Antioxidant Chlorogenic acid is a type of polyphenols and is recognized as a natural antioxidant. The main ingredient of some antioxidant health products is chlorogenic acid. The researchers found that chlorogenic acid can reduce retinal nerve cell apoptosis caused by hypoxia or excessive carbon monoxide. Since chlorogenic acid can reduce retinal cell death, chlorogenic acid has the ability to prevent lesions caused by retinal degeneration. Niggeweg et al. published papers in Nature Biotechnology showing that chlorogenic acid acts as an antioxidant in plants and can delay animal degeneration and diseases caused by aging. 4. Regulate blood sugar Multiple studies have shown that chlorogenic acid can regulate blood sugar, improve insulin resistance, and reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. In an experiment done by Ahrens et al., chlorogenic acid can significantly reduce the concentration of glucose and insulin. Khang WeiOng and other experiments have proved that the principle that chlorogenic acid can regulate blood sugar is that it can inhibit the expression and activity of hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase, reduce liver steatosis, improve lipid profile and skeletal muscle glucose uptake, thereby improving blood sugar levels, glucose Tolerance, insulin sensitivity and dyslipidemia. 5. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory The antibacterial active ingredient of traditional Chinese herbal medicines such as honeysuckle and eucommia is chlorogenic acid! Chlorogenic acid can inhibit and eliminate a variety of pathogenic bacteria. Experiments show that the main principle of chlorogenic acid inhibiting pathogenic bacteria is to inhibit the metabolism of pathogenic bacteria to sugar, resulting in insufficient energy supply of pathogenic bacteria, thereby inhibiting their growth. Moreover, chlorogenic acid can also reduce the number of pathogenic bacteria by inhibiting the synthesis of pathogenic bacteria flagella. According to studies, chlorogenic acid also has antiviral effects, and chlorogenic acid is also considered by researchers to be one of the potential anti-HIV effective compounds, which may play an important role in future anti-HIV drugs.
