Garcinia cambogia is the common name of Garcinia gummi-gutta, a tropical tree of the mangosteen family whose small, ridged fruit looks like a miniature pumpkin. Its dried rind has been used for generations as a souring agent in fish curries because of its sharp, sour taste, and the main organic acid in the rind is (−)-hydroxycitric acid, usually shortened to HCA.[1] This guide takes you from the tree to the capsule: what our label declares, what powder rather than extract means and how to fit up to three capsules into your day.
Our capsules contain organic Garcinia cambogia powder, 2,100mg per three-capsule serving. It is the powder itself rather than a concentrated extract, 700mg in each vegan capsule.[2]

What Is Garcinia Cambogia?
The tree is native to India and Southeast Asia, where the fruit is harvested and the dried rind is added to curries for its sour taste. The capsule is a way of taking a measured amount of the dried plant without the sour taste, and nothing in it has been added to or changed from the powder itself.
The fruit rind of Garcinia gummi-gutta is used traditionally as a flavourant in fish curries for its sharp sour taste, and HCA is a main organic acid of the rind.[1] Browse the Herbal Shelf to discover more carefully selected botanicals for a thoughtful routine.
Organic Garcinia Cambogia 2100mg: What the Label Says
Every figure below is taken from the nutritional information panel and the ingredients list on the pouch. No nutrient reference value is established for garcinia, so the label shows no %NRV.
Organic Garcinia cambogia: 2,100mg per serving of three capsules (700mg per capsule). Servings per pouch: 30 (90 capsules). Ingredients: organic Garcinia cambogia powder, capsule shell (hypromellose), organic brown rice flour. Vegan; no extract ratio, no HCA percentage and no added vitamins, minerals or other botanicals declared.[2]
Which Garcinia Cambogia Is Right for You?
If you’re comparing garcinia supplements — first check whether the label describes whole powder or an extract, because the two are not comparable weight for weight: an extract label quotes a ratio and usually a percentage of HCA, while a powder label quotes the weight of dried plant only. Alpha01 Organic Garcinia Cambogia 2100mg – 90 Capsules are whole powder: each capsule holds 700mg of organic Garcinia cambogia powder, and three make the 2,100mg serving on the panel, with no extract ratio and no HCA percentage declared[2]. Up to three capsules a day, so a pouch of 90 is a 30-day supply at the full serving, £8.99 at the time of writing, about 30p per three-capsule serving.
If you want it organic or vegan — you have both: the powder is certified organic and unstandardised, the shell is hypromellose (plant cellulose) rather than gelatine, and the only other ingredient is organic brown rice flour, so the capsules are suitable for vegans[2]. A capsule gives you a measured amount of the dried plant without the sour taste of the rind, and nothing has been added to or changed from the powder itself.
If you read labels — three lines tell you what you are buying: the nutritional information panel (organic Garcinia cambogia, 2,100mg per three capsules, no nutrient reference value established), the ingredients list (three items on ours), and the suggested use: up to three capsules daily with water. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
