HCA helps stimulate serotonin release and inhibit reuptake in the body. Serotonin (5-HT) is a neurotransmitter involved in several behavioural functions within the body, including mood and appetite control. Studies show that serotonin impacts eating behavior and body weight; increased circulating levels are associated with lower food intake, reduced weight gain and increased energy expenditure.\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan size=\"1\" style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"\u003e2,3,4\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e Therefore, increased serotonin levels can help address many of the emotional issues overweight people face.\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan size=\"1\" style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"\u003e5,6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHCA has also been shown to be a competitive inhibitor of ATP-citrate lyase, a key player in the conversion of citrate into acetyl coenzyme A, a primary building block for fatty acid synthesis. Inhibiting ATP-citrate lyase directs carbohydrates away from fat synthesis and towards storing energy in the form of glycogen. Increased glycogen levels send satiety signals to the brain, ultimately leading to reduced food intake.\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan size=\"1\" style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"\u003e7\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 2 week study showed that 500 mg of SuperCitriMax\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e decreases calorie intake and sustains satiety.
