African Mango Plus is a weight loss supplement that claims to help you shed excess pounds, increase your metabolism and fight fatigue in one easy pill. The product is touted as a way to jumpstart your weight loss program on the company website.

The key ingredient in the supplement, African mango, has become the latest diet craze on the Internet today. The fruit has been consumed by natives of the African region for generations to ward off hunger pangs on long hunting expeditions. Today, the substance comes in an easy-to-use pill to facilitate weight loss for all types of dieters.

How does it Work?

The African mango appears to have two unique substances that enhance the weight loss process. The first is high fiber content that suppresses appetite so you consume fewer calories each day. The other is found in the seed of the fruit, known as the dikka nuts. These seeds are very high in protein, which has been shown to help build lean muscle mass and increase the metabolic rate.

The product website for African Mango Plus does provide a full ingredient list for the supplement, which includes 150 mg of African mango extract, as well as green tea leaf extract, caffeine extract and L-theanine. Green tea and caffeine are both stimulants found in many weight loss products because of their ability to rev up the metabolic rate. However, these substances, especially caffeine, can cause unpleasant side effects in some, such as headaches, nausea and jitteriness.

The product label instructs users to take one capsule 20 minutes before breakfast and another 20 minutes before lunch. The label also cautions not to take the product too close to bedtime, since the stimulants in the formula are likely to interfere with sleep. The amount of caffeine in a single capsule is the equivalent of about three cups of coffee, so if you are sensitive to the effects of caffeine, this might not be the best choice for you.
