Choosing a Quality Diet Supplement You Can Trust

There are many weight management products on the market, and you may already be taking a Garcinia Cambogia or Green Coffee Bean supplement. However, after reviewing Garcinia Cambogia pills on the market, we found that many of these other products were lacking in quality ingredients or it was impossible to even find out where they were produced, or by who.

Due to popular demand and feedback from our regular customers - who had reservations about the quality of their Garcinia Cambogia diet supplements, we looked to produce an affordable Garcinia and Green Coffee Bean product with ingredient quality that our customers could rely on.

The quality of an ingredient refers not only to location and the manufacturer the ingredient is sourced from, but also the manufacturing processes and the quality systems in place. The quality of the finished product in turn depends on ingredient quality, and perhaps most importantly, it must be produced in a full compliance with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices).

Plenty of research is required to make an informed decision on a quality supplement, and we have made this process easier for you!

    No unnecessary fillers – This means that there should not be any additional ingredients listed. We have only used the highest quality Garcinia Cambogia and Green Coffee Bean extract, with a small amount of silica to aid in production and to ensure product stability. Garcinia Cambogia extract and Green Coffee Bean extract have been shown to be beneficial when taken in conjunction with each other. Other diet supplements with Garcinia cambogia often contain calcium, which interferes with the effects of HCA.
    Lab verified – The quality, identity, purity and strength of every ingredient must be verified by strict laboratory testing. Xtend-Life has tested every one of our quality ingredients through third party certified laboratories, using verified methods.
    Quality History – Xtend-Life is located in New Zealand and we have been producing quality supplements since 2000. We use stringent testing methods and uphold the highest standards.
    Manufactured under strict Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) – This ensures that the manufacturing facility conforms to industry standards. This also ensures that every batch of product is produced according to strict processes and controls and that every step of every process is documented.


We believe that our Garcinia cambogia pills give you the best value for your money, where each serving (of three capsules) contains more than 700mg of HCA content and we do not use any fillers to bulk up our product.

Our Garcinia cambogia supplement is proudly manufactured in New Zealand and we are confident that our choice of quality ingredients will lead to faster, safer, and more effective results.
A bit more about our quality ingredients…
Garcinia Cambogia

Garcinia Cambogia, also known as Malabar tamarind or Goroka fruit, contains an organic compound called hydroxycitric acid (HCA) that possesses several actions useful in helping to manage body weight. HCA is primarily found in the rind of Garcinia cambogia. It is a derivative of citric acid, but has very different properties.

While the dried fruit rind is used extensively for culinary purposes in Southern India, Thailand, Malaysia and Burma, dietary supplements containing Garcinia cambogia extracts (with concentrated amounts of HCA) are popular additions to many weight management programs.

Garcinia Cambogia HCA

There are several theories as to how Garcinia Cambogia HCA works. One theory for the mechanism of action of HCA is reported to be the inhibition of the enzyme ATP-citrate lyase. ATP-citrate lyase is a key enzyme involved in fatty acid biosynthesis, the body’s fat-making process, to turn excess sugars and carbohydrates into stored fat. When inhibited, this may affect the production of fats such as LDL and triglycerides, as well as the amount of fat converted and stored in the body.

We source our Garcinia cambogia from a remote area in India, and the fruit goes through a 100% water extraction process (with no chemical solvents added) before being carefully dried in a vacuum environment. By performing the final drying phase under vacuum, the Garcinia Cambogia extract can be dried at lower temperatures to ensure its quality and efficacy is optimized.
Testing for HCA content

Did you know that there is a standard validated method for measuring Garcinia Cambogia HCA content? Other Manufacturers may choose to use a non-validated method to give them a falsely high HCA percentage; however, at Xtend-Life we only use the recognised and validated United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) Method.

Xtend-Life’s facility is registered with the US FDA. We also abide by cGMP requirements for Raw Material testing for identity, purity, strength and composition. We engage third party laboratories to perform impartial testing of our ingredients to ensure strict compliance with these regulations. We have tested our premium quality Indian Garcinia cambogia extract and stand behind our HCA content.
Calculating HCA

Do not be fooled by products that boast 70% HCA content or higher. While these may seem superior at a glance, it is important to take a closer look. The amount of HCA should be calculated into milligrams for the true representation.

Here is an example of how to calculate the amount HCA in your Garcinia supplement.

    Read the label and establish the amount of Garcinia extract in milligrams (mg) per serving. Some companies mention the amount of fruit rind used - be sure to look for the amount of garcinia fruit extract.
    Once you have established the amount of Garcinia extract per serving, calculate the amount of HCA in milligrams. For example, if a company claims to have 70% HCA content, but only offers 1000mg of Garcinia per serving, calculate 70% of 1000mg. From the calculation we know that the product provides only 700mg of HCA a day.

Xtend-Life’s Garcinia and Green Coffee Bean contains 1400mg of Garcinia cambogia extract (~60% HCA) and 70mg of green coffee bean (~40% chlorogenic acid) per serving. This means that you get 785mg of HCA from Garcinia extract plus an additional 28mg of chlorogenic acid from our green coffee bean extract!
A bit on Green Coffee Bean…

Green coffee beans are coffee beans that have not been roasted, but remain in their raw, natural form. While roasting coffee beans gives it its unique rich coffee flavour, roasting the beans causes them to lose chlorogenic acid - a vital beneficial compound present in raw coffee beans.

Chlorogenic acid is a polyphenolic antioxidant present in green coffee beans that provides numerous benefits. Chlorogenic acid supports healthy inflammation management and is thought to help regulate the levels of glucose and LDL in the body. Chlorogenic acid can also aid the liver to better process fatty acids.

We have added Green Coffee Bean extract into our formulation to further enhance the weight management properties of our premium quality Garcinia Cambogia extract. We source our green coffee bean from a remote area in India where it is grown in the shade in forests and hills away from pollutants and is pesticide-free. The dried raw beans are extracted, decaffeinated and spray-dried, resulting in concentrated chlorogenic acid that won’t keep you awake at night or feeling jittery.
