Coffee beans are actually green seeds inside a bright red berry. Roasting them turns the seeds brown and creates the characteristic aroma and flavor coffee lovers crave. To create green coffee bean extract, the seeds are left unroasted. Instead they’re soaked and then concentrated to create the extract. Green coffee beans have a higher level of chlorogenic acid compared to regular, roasted coffee beans. The reputation of green coffee bean extract has increased in recent years due to its range of health benefits. It has won people over through its ability to ease digestion and boost weight loss efforts.

Its antioxidant and weight loss benefits are mostly derived from the component extracted from it called Chlorogenic Acid. Discovered in 1932, chlorogenic acids (CGA) represent a large family of esterified compounds present in green and roasted coffee. During roasting, CGA’s slowly decompose to form caffeic and quinic acid with about 50% of the original CGA being destroyed in a medium roast. Chlorogenic Acid is known as an antioxidant compound which plays vital roles in many biological processes.
