Dr. Oz Talks Weight Loss Using Garcinia Cambogia

Dr. Oz recently featured the herb Garcinia cambogia on his show. Pathway’s Super CitriMax® uses the patented form of Garcinia cambogia, which was clinically studied and cited on the show for its weight management benefits. Research led by Dr. Harry Preuss at Georgetown University demonstrated that Garcinia cambogia can be three times more effective than diet and exercise alone, showing that it works both by suppressing appetite and by reducing body fat.
