The product of extensive laboratory research...

Countless scientific studies have already shown the effectiveness of Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) for promoting weight loss and new studies are now underway to determine its presumed effectiveness at combating high cholesterol. But until now, HCA was only available from a botanical extract of Garcinia cambogia with poor solubility and high levels of impurities.

Developed exclusively for nutritional and food applications, Aerocephra™ is the purest and most advanced form of stabilized Hydroxycitric Acid ever developed.

Aerocephra™ is believed to promote weight loss in at least 3 ways...

First - Aerocephra™ works by inhibiting the enzyme ATP-Citrate Lyase, one of the key enzymes responsible for promoting fat synthesis. By inhibiting this enzyme, carbohydrates are diverted into the production of glycogen in the liver and muscles instead of fat.

Second - As a direct result of ATP-Citrate Lyase inhibition, Malonyl-CoA is not produced. Malonyl-CoA is a compound known to block the shunting of fat to the mitochondria where it is burnt as energy. By preventing the production of Malonyl-CoA, Aerocephra™ may help to burn fat that would have previously been un-burnable.

Third - By increasing glycogen levels, Aerocephra™ is believed to increase serotonin levels in the brain (a neurotransmitter involved in appetite regulation) and decreases levels of leptin (a marker for obesity gene) and thus promotes weight loss by suppressing appetite and controlling hunger.

Advanced Properties Aerocephra™ provides significant advantages over other currently available forms of HCA.

The Alternatives:

Insoluble Calcium Salt - The most popular alternative form of HCA available is an insoluble calcium based extract of Garcinia cambogia. The product is available as a brownish powder with a low purity of only about 70% and contains only about 50 - 55% HCA. It is only sparingly water-soluble.

Potassium and Calcium Salt - Typically available as a coarse powder, this product may contain 55 - 65% Free HCA. However, 30% or more of the Free HCA rapidly transforms into the inactive Lactone form when heated or introduced to moisture. This material is therefore biologically and chemically unstable. As much as 10% of the constituents that make up this product are not soluble in water.

Calcium Salt with "Flavor Enhancement" - The "Flavor Enhancement" in this product is a result of the high levels of impurities and low pH generated by the manufacturing process. Furthermore, this product contains 50% or more of it's HCA in the inactive Lactone form. Its extremely low pH imparts a foul, sour taste that is difficult to mask and poses stability issues due to its high reactivity with other ingredients of more conventional pH ranges. In addition to the other drawbacks, the "Flavor Enhancement" particles in this product, as well as other impurities are not soluble and result in precipitate when the material is dissolved in water.

Aerocephra™:

A white, highly soluble, free flowing, tasteless and extremely pure (99.9%) form of HCA, Aerocephra™ is specially designed to overcome the adverse properties associated with previous HCA products. It is the only pure chemical compound of Free HCA on the market.

Purest Form of HCA Available - Over 99.9% Pure.

High HCA Content - Greater than 70% Hydroxycitric Acid.

HCA-Lactone Free - Free from the less effective form of HCA found in other HCA products.

Superior Solubiliy - Highly soluble in foods and beverages (100% at a min of 3.5g/100mL Water).

Thermo-Stable - Suitable for applications that involve heat treatments or pasturization.

Neutral pH - Stable in formulations.

Tasteless and Odorless - Does not alter the flavor of the products to which it is added.

Long Shelf Life - Preliminary stability studies indicate a shelf life well in excess of 3 years.

Un-Matched Versatility The unique properties of Aerocephra™ make it an exceptionally versatile raw material.

Capsules, Softgels, and Powdered Formulations:
As a white, free-flowing and odorless powder, Aerocephra™ is easy to work with. Its low moisture, neutral pH, and non-reactive nature makes it a simple choice for many formulators.

Foods and Beverages:
Unlike alternative sources of HCA, Aerocephra™ is completely soluble in foods and beverages and is flavorless. Aerocephra™ is also highly thermo-stable making it suitable for use in pasteurized beverages and teas.

Highest Potency Aerocephra™ is the most potent form of stabilized HCA available to date.

Vastly superior solubility ensures that Aerocephra™ is the most potent, bio-available form of HCA available today.

The current research on HCA indicates a recommended minimum daily dosage for an adult is 1,500 milligrams of HCA per day. Best results were found when the daily dosage was split into three doses of 500 milligrams taken 30-45 minutes before meals. Some research suggests that 2700 milligrams of HCA per day may produce even greater results when taken in three equal doses 30-45 minutes before each meal.

Research: Most, if not all, current research does not account for solubility, impurity levels, or the proportion of inactive HCA-Lactone present in research material. Until the development of Aerocephra™, even the most potent HCA products consisted of as much as 50% or more HCA-Lactone with poor solubility and high levels of impurities. Therefore, although research indicates substantial results for lesser quality materials at the above dosages, Aerocephra™ is significantly more potent and may require a lower dosage for similar results.

Note: The recommended dose indicated above is for HCA, not milligrams of Aerocephra™. For example, Aerocephra™, which contains 70% Free HCA, provides 700 milligrams Free HCA per gram of Aerocephra™. Thus, a daily dose of 1,500 milligrams HCA requires 2,150 milligrams of Aerocephra™.

Safe Aerocephra™ has been proven safe many times over.

Aerocephra™ does not act upon the central nervous system like Ephedra (Ma-Huang), Phenylpropanolamine (PPA), or many of the other weight loss ingredients commonly used today.

Acute toxicity studies have shown the Lethal Dose (LD50) of HCA to be more than 500 times higher than citric acid. In other words, HCA is 500 times safer than citric acid, one of the body's most vital nutrients.

Studies have also shown that HCA does not beget the "rebound effect" associated with most weight loss ingredients.
