[What is Huperzine A]

Huperzia is a type of moss that grows in China. It is related to club mosses (the Lycopodiaceae family) and is known to some botanists as Lycopodium serratum . The whole prepared moss was used traditionally. Modern herbal preparations use only the isolated alkaloid known as huperzine A. Huperzine A is an alkaloid found in huperzia that has been reported to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine, an important substance needed by the nervous system to transmit information from cell to cell. Animal research has suggested that huperzine A’s ability to preserve acetylcholine may be greater than that of some prescription drugs. Loss of acetylcholine function is a primary feature of several disorders of brain function, including Alzheimer’s disease . Huperzine A may also have a protective effect on brain tissue, further increasing its theoretical potential for helping reduce symptoms of some brain disorders.

[Function] Used in alternative medicine, huperzine A has been found to act as a cholinesterase inhibitor, a type of medicine used to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine (a chemical essential to learning and memory).

Not only used as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, huperzine A is also said to enhance learning and memory and to protect against age-related cognitive decline.

In addition, huperzine A is sometimes used to boost energy, increase alertness, and aid in the treatment of myasthenia gravis (an autoimmune disorder that affects the muscles).

Last year, the medical unit for The Dr. Oz Show also conducted a study of green coffee bean extract, under the guidance of consultants Caroline Apovian, M.D., and registered dietician Kristin Kirkpatrick. The study enlisted 100 overweight women to take either the green coffee bean extract (400 milligrams, three times a day) or an inactive placebo. After two weeks, the women who took the green coffee bean extract lost, on average, two pounds, twice as much as the women who took the placebo.

Hausenblas and other experts note that conventionally brewed coffee doesn’t confer the same weight-loss benefits as green coffee extract because roasting beans removes the chlorogenic acid. But they also pointed out that many studies have found coffee contains other compounds, some of which may be good for you, including caffeine, which can raise energy levels, blood pressure, metabolism, heart rate, and breathing.

“Coffee contains hundreds of components, each of which may have potential and independent pharmacological effects,” Hausenblas explains. “Coffee is a notable source of caffeine. However, coffee’s effects on glycemic control and weight loss have been attributed to its other components, including chlorogenic acid, quinides, lignans, and trigonelline, all of which have been shown to improve glucose metabolism in animal studies.”
