What Korean regulators say
South Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety recognizes garcinia cambogia extract as a functional health food ingredient that may help reduce body fat by inhibiting the conversion of carbohydrates into fat. The ministry’s recognition indicates a potential benefit, not that the supplement is a medicine or treatment for disease.
Recommended intake and precautions
The ministry lists a daily intake of 750 to 1,500 milligrams. Children and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid the ingredient. Men should avoid excessive consumption.
People with liver, kidney or heart conditions, allergies or asthma should consult a health professional before taking the supplement. The same guidance applies to anyone using medication. Consumers should stop taking it and seek professional advice if they experience an adverse reaction.
