What breastfeeding mothers need to know"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>This question arises in the minds of all mothers who breastfeed their newborn babies.  Well, it has been scientifically proven that garcinia extract has no harmful side effects or life-threatening repercussions.  However, breastfeeding and pregnant women should refrain from using it without consulting the experts and medical advisors.<\/p>\n<p>What is garcinia cambogia?<\/p>\n<p>The potential harmful effects of this supplement for breastfeeding mothers can be better understood by taking a closer look at its ingredients, history, and mechanism of action.<\/p>\n<p>Garcinia cambogia is a type of fruit that looks like a small pumpkin.  It is mostly grown in central Africa, India, and regions of Southeast Asia, and has been used as part of the staple diet for thousands of years.  Garcinia has a filling effect, is affordable and can be used to prepare a variety of dishes.  It was used as a survival food by long-distance travelers in ancient times.<\/p>\n<p>What are some ingredients?<\/p>\n<p>Until recently, there have been very few reports regarding the ingredients of Garcinia Cambogia.  According to experts, it contains a compound known as HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid).  HCA has a positive effect on weight loss and has been used by people looking for easy means to lose weight.<\/p>\n<p>How it works?<\/p>\n<p>HCA, which is the most active ingredient in Garcinia Cambogia supplements, inhibits the production of an enzyme called Lyase.  Lyase is responsible for restricting the conversion of carbohydrates into glycogen and glucose.  Glucose and glycogen are stored in the body as fat and used to provide the body with energy.<\/p>\n<p>Since the extract contains HCA, it improves communication channels associated with the mind and body and provides a feeling of fullness.  This, in turn, prevents hunger pangs in people who want to lose weight.  The body&#8217;s &#8220;feel good&#8221; hormones also inhibit emotional eating.<\/p>\n<p>Why should breastfeeding mothers avoid garcinia cambogia?<\/p>\n<p>HCA affects the supply of vital nutrients in the body and causes changes in the functioning of the metabolic system.  Apart from increasing the metabolic rate, it also leads to a feeling of fullness which encourages nursing mothers to indulge in lack of food.  It also has a negative effect on blood sugar levels in nursing mothers.<\/p>\n<p>Because these drastic changes are not safe for infants and nursing mothers;  Most health experts advise breastfeeding and pregnant women to stay away from Garcinia Cambogia supplements.  Diabetics and patients with signs and symptoms of Alzheimer&#8217;s disease should avoid taking the extract without a doctor&#8217;s recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>In short, taking this supplement is an essential ingredient for those who are trying to lose weight but it should be avoided by women who are breastfeeding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This question arises in the minds of all mothers who breastfeed their newborn babies.
