Chlorogenic acid is the chief component found
in coffee and in many plant compounds. It is similar to bioflavonoids and
caffeine which are very useful in decreasing the absorption of dietary
carbohydrates in humans. It is a useful component for health because it can
reduces blood sugar levels, potentially exerts an anti-diabetic effect, and
helps in weight loss and exerting an anti-obesity effect. However, these
healthy aspects are not necessarily due to chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acids
are related to polyphenol family of esters that are consumed as dietary
supplement with coffee and have anti-inflammatory effects.
According to the study “Asia
Chlorogenic Acid Industry Situation and Prospects Research report”,
chlorogenic acid is denoted as CGA and is a natural chemical compound. It is
the ester of quinic acid and caffeic acid which is a biosynthetic intermediate
in lignin biosynthesis process. It is an antioxidant that releases glucose into
the bloodstream very slowly after a meal. Chlorogenic acid is termed as a
useful supplement found in foods sources and are enough for a long-term
preventative measures. It is found in prunes that support the laxative effect,
coffee and other well known food laxative. Higher homocysteine concentrations
are observed in coffee drinkers due to the presence of CGA. Chlorogenic acid is
present abundantly in green coffee and many people are attracted towards it.
People addicted to green coffee witnessed positive effects such as control of
high blood pressure, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer’s.
