Chlorogenic acid is a type of polyphenol that is commonly found in many plant-based foods, including coffee beans, tea, fruits, and vegetables. It is particularly abundant in green coffee beans, which are the unroasted seeds of the Coffea arabica plant.

Chlorogenic acid has been studied for its potential health benefits, which may include: 

  • reducing inflammation,
  • improving insulin sensitivity, and 
  • supporting cardiovascular health.

It is believed to work in part by inhibiting the activity of enzymes that break down carbohydrates in the gut, which can lead to slower absorption of glucose and lower blood sugar levels.

In addition to its potential health benefits, chlorogenic acid is also a natural antioxidant, which means it can help to protect cells from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals. This may be why it has been studied for its potential anti-aging effects and its ability to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.

Overall, chlorogenic acid is a widely studied polyphenol that may offer a range of health benefits, particularly in relation to blood sugar control, cardiovascular health, and anti-inflammatory effects.
