Citrus Aurantium is a fruit commonly known as bitter orange which
has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat chest
congestion and indigestion, stimulate gastrointestinal function and
improve circulation and liver function. In traditional western
medicine, Citrus Aurantium has is most commonly used to treat
digestive and circulatory problems.
Citrus Aurantium is
widely used for stimulating the breakdown of fat, by causing the
release of noradrenaline (a stress hormone) at beta-3 receptor sites
creating chemical reactions that increase fat breakdown. Beta-3
receptors in the body increase the rate at which fat is released
from the body stores (lipolysis) and increase resting metabolic rate
(thermogenesis). Physical activity will increase this thermogenic
effect and further enhance the thermogenic effect of Citrus
Aurantium towards healthyand permanent weight
loss.
