It is well known that in addition to weight gain, two other common side effects of obesity are increased insulin resistance and liver fat accumulation, which can lead to diabetes and poor liver function if left untreated. Now, researchers at the University of Georgia in the United States have found that chlorogenic acid (CGA), a common compound found in coffee, helps prevent the damaging effects of obesity. It is also found in other fruits and vegetables, such as apples, pears, tomatoes and blueberries. However, scientists also point out that CGA is not a panacea, and proper diet and regular exercise are still the best ways to reduce the risk associated with obesity.
