Brindleberry (Garcinia Cambogia)
Garcinia cambogia, also known as brindleberry, is a small, pumpkin-shaped fruit native to Southeast Asia. The yellowish-green fruit is very sour and is not typically eaten fresh, however, both the pulp and the peel have been used for cooking. Brindleberry surged in popularity after it was featured on the Dr. Oz show in 2012. Today, you’ll find many supplements for weight loss made with extract from brindleberry peel.
How it helps with weight loss: Brindleberry contains compounds that have been used for weight loss. Most notably among these is hydroxycitric acid (HCA), the active ingredient in brindleberry extract. Researchers have found evidence that HCA can reduce food intake and promote weight loss, as well as increase metabolism.
Other benefits: In addition to its utility for weight loss, brindleberry has some other reported health benefits. The rind of garcinia cambogia is commonly used as a supplement to treat rheumatoid arthritis, intestinal issues, and high cholesterol.
Brindleberry is an ingredient in both our Crave Less Patch and our Healthy Weight Patch.
Green Tea Extract
Green tea has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. As a dietary supplement, green tea extract is often promoted for facilitating weight loss and as a relief for digestive symptoms.
How it helps with weight loss: Green tea extract is popular in many supplements and multivitamins for weight loss, mainly because it contains the antioxidant known as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Multiple studies have found that EGCG aids in fat burning, especially belly fat. Green tea also contains caffeine, a well-known metabolism booster.
Other benefits: In addition to its potential in supplements for weight loss, green tea extract has been associated with lower cholesterol levels. It has also been used for skin health due to its antioxidant properties. All the more reason to get your green tea extract through the skin with our transdermal patches!
Green tea extract is one of four main ingredients in our Crave Less Patch.
Bitter Orange Flower
Citrus aurantium, also known as bitter orange, is a fruit native to Southeast Asia and popularized in the Mediterranean region. The extremely sour fruit has long been used as a flavoring and acidifying agent in food and drink. A staple in traditional Chinese medicine, bitter orange can now be found in many essential oils and supplements for weight loss.
How it helps with weight loss: Bitter orange is commonly included in vitamins for weight loss because it contains p-synephrine, a compound said to increase energy expenditure and the rate of fat oxidation in the body. Bitter orange is also known to stimulate metabolism and suppress appetite.
Other benefits: While it is most often found in weight loss supplements today, bitter orange has been commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine as a treatment for indigestion, nausea, and constipation. Bitter orange has also been applied to the skin (very interesting…) to suppress pain, inflammation, and fungal infections.
We currently use bitter orange in our Healthy Weight Patch.
Green Coffee
Green coffee beans are essentially coffee beans that have not yet been roasted. While green coffee can be purchased in whole-bean form to make a hot beverage, it’s much more popular in extract form. As an extract, green coffee can be found in many supplements for weight loss.
How it helps with weight loss: Green coffee is used in many weight loss supplements because it contains chlorogenic acid, a compound known to reduce weight by reducing the uptake of carbohydrates and glucose during digestion. It also contains caffeine, which can boost metabolism.
Other benefits: In addition to its weight loss benefits, green coffee extract has also been used to treat high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Green coffee is also high in antioxidants.

Rockweed
Fucus vesiculosus, or rockweed, is a brown seaweed that grows along coastlines as well as in various bodies of water across North America. Rockweed has been used in traditional medicine for centuries to treat an array of ailments. It can be found in many supplements today due to its richness in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
How it helps with weight loss: Rockweed has been used in supplements for weight loss because of research suggesting it has anti-obesity effects. Rockweed is also a good source of magnesium, a mineral known to promote healthy weight.
Other benefits: Research has shown that rockweed can help regulate thyroid function, promotes skin health (wow, so many of the ingredients in our transdermal patches are good for your skin), and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Oarweed
Laminaria, or oarweed, is another type of seaweed used for its health benefits. Oarweed is a common kelp seaweed found in shallow coastal waters. It is used in food in many Asian countries but is more common in supplements for weight loss in Western culture.
How it helps with weight loss: Oarweed is high in iodine, an essential mineral known to help the body produce thyroid hormone. Since hypothyroidism (lack of thyroid hormone) can cause weight gain, oarweed is included in some vitamins for weight loss.
Other benefits: In addition to promoting weight loss, oarweed has also been used for managing high blood pressure and heartburn. The plant is also being studied for its potential use in cancer prevention.

Yerba Mate
Yerba mate is a tea made using leaves and twigs from the Ilex paraguariensis plant. Yerba mate was traditionally drunk out of a gourd, and sharing the tea in this way is said to be a sign of bonding and friendship. Today, yerba mate is popular because it’s rich in antioxidants and nutrients.
How it helps with weight loss: Studies show that yerba mate can reduce appetite and boost metabolism, evidence that it could be a good supplement for weight loss. Yerba mate also contains caffeine, which can boost metabolism and enhance physical performance when exercising.
Other benefits: Yerba mate has a slew of other purported health benefits. In addition to promoting weight loss and being rich in antioxidants, yerba mate is said to boost energy and improve mental focus, boost your immune system, and potentially protect against infections.
