Manufacturer’s Claim

Read our review of Life Extension CoffeeGenic Green Coffee Extract and the manufacturer’s claim to assist in maintaining your cardiovascular and metabolic health. The green coffee extract also claims to regulate blood sugar levels by using the natural chlorogenic acid and polyphenol found within the extract.

Formula

The formula is a natural supplement containing 400mg of CoffeeGenic Green Coffee Extract standardized to contain 50% chlorogenic acid. The only addition to the ingredient list is the vegetable cellulose capsule. Chlorogenic acid is the component of green coffee extract that gives it all its health benefits. 50% is the recommended amount for optimal results.

While the supplement is in line with maintaining an all natural extract, it is half the dosage of competing brands who are offering 800mg of green coffee extract per serving.

Instructions

As per the instructions on the packaging, the recommended dosage is one capsule before every heavy meal up to three times a day or as per the instructions of your health care provider.

As mentioned above, even with the additional option of taking the supplement three times a day, the dosage is substantially lower than competing brands. However, it is still within the minimum tested range for health benefits to a certain degree.

Cost

The retail price of the product is $32 from the manufacturer’s website. There is a 24% discount available giving a reduced price of $24. The online store also offers an AutoShip Price of $21, however, continuous billing plans are something to be cautious of. They are not easy to unsubscribe from and this can leave you with unexpected deliveries and charges. You can also buy four bottles at a time for $21 each.
The price on a single unit is competitive at first glance, but bearing in mind that the dosage is lower than competing brands, you could find a more competitive deal with a more effective dosage.

Possible Side Effects

The standard warnings are found on the supplement’s packaging with regards to gaining medical advice before commencing supplement use, however, there are no supplement side effect details on the website or packaging. The product does contain 12mg of caffeine per serving.

Through our research, we have found general side effects of green coffee extract supplements such as insomnia, nervousness, restlessness, stomach upset, nausea, and vomiting. In some cases, it can also cause increased heart rate, breathing rate, and in cases where large quantities are consumed, headache, anxiety, agitation, ringing in the ears and irregular heart beat.

Guarantee

Life Extension offers a 12-month return policy if you are not satisfied with the product. The policy states that you may return your product for a replacement product or they will credit your account.

Life Extension CoffeeGenic Green Coffee Extract Review – The Bottom Line

The Life Extension CoffeeGenic Green Coffee Extract supplement offers a great price on a single unit for a 400mg dosage supplement. While there are customer reviews commending the product for its effectiveness, there are also quite a few reviews stating the product has not been effective. Keeping in mind that there are 800mg dosage alternatives being offered for the same price, this product does not particularly stand out as a superior product. An alternative product will probably give you a faster result.
