Garcinia Cambogia, a topical, fist-size fruit made a grand entry and has taken the world like a strom. Promoting and vouching by the goodness of Garcinia, people referred Garcinia Cambogia’s extract as an ‘exciting breakthrough’.
Also known as Garcinia gummi-gutta, this plant native to Indonesia is closely related to Garcinia species and belongs to the plant family Clusiaceae. Vastly grown in Southeast Asia, West and Central Africa and in Karnataka, Kerala in India, it goes with several vernacular names like ‘Kudam Puli’ in Tamil and Malayalam, ‘Goraka’ in Hindi, ‘Uppage’ in Kannada and ‘Malabaru Chinta’ in Telugu and is also quite often referred to as Malabar Tamarind and brindle berry.
The fruit with neatly arranged, thick and deep vertical lobes similar to pumpkin looks pale green in colour when raw but acquires yellowish tinge and then turns purple as it fully ripens.
