Description
Garcinia cambogia tincture is a liquid extract made from the rind of the Garcinia cambogia fruit, also known as Malabar tamarind. The tincture contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA), which is believed to be the primary active compound responsible for its potential health benefits.
Properties and Uses
- Weight Management: Garcinia cambogia tincture is primarily used as a weight loss aid. HCA may help:

- Mood Enhancement: The tincture may increase serotonin levels, potentially improving mood and reducing emotional eating.
Preparation Method
Garcinia cambogia tincture is typically prepared by steeping the dried fruit rind in alcohol (usually ethanol) for several weeks. The liquid is then strained and bottled. Some manufacturers may use glycerin instead of alcohol for alcohol-free versions.
Typical Concentration
Most garcinia cambogia tinctures contain 50-60% HCA. The concentration can vary between products, so it's important to check the label.

- Administration: Can be taken directly under the tongue or mixed with water or juice.
- Duration: For best results, use consistently for at least 8-12 weeks.
