Garcinia atroviridis fruit extract alters lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cell line model

Obesity is accumulation of excess body fat to the extent it may have an adverse effect on health. It is undeniably a complex disease with risk factors combination of genetics, lifestyle, nutrition, increasing age and lack of physical activity. Alarming increase of obesity prevalence since past few y...
