Garcinia Cambogia, Green Coffee Bean, Raspberry Ketones: The Comparison

Every supplement category has at least a few ingredients with an established “evergreen” status. While this is a good thing, because it means you have products which are always in demand, you might be wondering if it’s worth it to keep stocking up on all of them. Your customers might be asking themselves a similar question: “If two products are known to work and lead to the same end result, what difference does it make if I take one or the other?”

But the truth is that even if two products are in the same category, they often have different active ingredients, mechanisms of action and potential side effects. If you are more informed about these particular differences, you will be better able to answer your customers’ needs. And sometimes, the extra information you provide, even if it just trivia, will engage their attention and encourage them to buy from you, instead of your competitors.

Let’s take the weight loss category as an example. Ingredients like Garcinia Cambogia, Green Coffee Beans, and Raspberry Ketones have enjoyed great popularity for some years now. Studies have proved their efficiency in weight management, but if we look at the three ingredients closely, we will see some differences worth mentioning.

Garcinia Cambogia, Coffee Beans and Raspberries have all had different uses prior to becoming known for their weight loss properties.

Garcinia Cambogia	Coffee Beans	Raspberries
Used to treat digestive disorders and stimulate digestion Anti-inflammatory agent	Roasted to make coffee Used as a general tonic	The leaves were used to treat female infertility The ketones have been used for a long time to flavor soft drinks, desserts and pharmaceuticals

The active ingredients (AI), found to be responsible for their weight loss action, are also different and use different pathways to achieve the desired result.

Garcinia Cambogia AI: Hydroxycitric Аcid (HCA)	Green Coffee Bean AI: Chlorogenic Acid	Raspberry Ketones AI: Raspberry Ketones
Inhibits the action of an enzyme responsible for converting carbohydrates into fats ⁽¹⁾	Balances blood glucose levels	Regulate adiponectine, a protein responsible for fat burning
Suppresses appetite	Boosts thermogenesis and promotes faster metabolism	Reduces the retention of fluids
Regulates the production of cortisol	Helps the body burn existing fat storages by using them as the primary source of fuel ⁽²⁾	Alters lipid metabolism ⁽³⁾

As you can see, even though these products all promote weight loss, they do so in all kinds of ways. When a customer approaches you, you can better guide them among your products if you know their exact mechanisms of action. For example, if somebody tells you they have a hard time cutting carbs from their diet, you can recommend Garcinia Cambogia. For others, suffering from slow metabolism, our private label Green Coffee Been Extract may be the answer. And if they are looking to shed excess liquids from their body, give them a bottle of private label Raspberry Ketones.

Supplements typically have more than one benefit. If a customer sees the additional benefits of each of the products, that may make their choice easier.

Garcinia Cambogia	Green Coffee Bean	Raspberry Ketone
Aids digestion	Boosts energy levels	Lowers cholesterol
Boosts serotonin levels	Shows antioxidant properties	Exhibits antioxidant properties
	Strengthens liver tissue	May improve energy levels without the jitters associated with that

It’s in your own interest for your customers to know the best time to take each supplement. If they don’t, they may not see the benefits you claimed your product had, and they may choose not to return to your business.

Garcinia Cambogia	Green Coffee Bean	Raspberry Ketones
2 capsules, 30 minutes to 1 hour before a meal (preferably before breakfast or lunch) and with a full glass of water	1 capsule, 30 minutes before a meal (preferably before breakfast or lunch) and with a full glass of water	1 capsule, 30 minutes before a meal with a full glass of water

Conclusion

As you can see, all of these three ingredients may seem similar at first, but actually have a lot of aspects in which they differ. Inform your customers about each one of them, so they can make an informed choice. And avoid the mistake of marketers who say that taking these supplements is enough, and that exercise isn’t necessary. Always advise your customers to combine weight loss supplements with a good exercise regimen for best results.
