Gelatide Ingredients List: 6 Extracts And 6 Questions To Ask Of Each
The ingredient list is short and the questions are long. Each of the six extracts gets one question below, with the research dose set next to the amount the bottle prints.
The Gelatide label lists six plant extracts: green tea leaf, guarana seed, African mango seed, Coleus forskohlii root, capsicum annuum fruit and raspberry ketones. Not one has a printed amount, and there is no serving size, so none can be set beside the dose used in research. Two of the six carry caffeine.
Key facts
- Extracts named on the label: African mango seed, capsicum annuum fruit, Coleus forskohlii root, green tea leaf, guarana seed and raspberry ketones.
- The amount of each extract is not published. Serving size and servings per container are not published either.
- Green tea and guarana carry caffeine, and the total per serving is not published.
- No Other Ingredients line is supplied, so the liquid base is not published.
- The finished Gelatide bottle has never been tested in a clinical trial.
- Label claims are three: supports healthy digestion, boosts fat metabolism, natural appetite control.
General information, not medical advice. Gelatide is a dietary supplement for healthy adults aged 18 and over. It is not a drug, it is not FDA approved (no supplement is), and it is not meant to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Ask a doctor or pharmacist about your own case, especially if you take any medicine.
Question 1: what does green tea leaf extract bring, and what is missing?
Green tea leaf (Camellia sinensis) is the most studied item on the panel. It is the catechin source, and one of two extracts that carry caffeine. A Cochrane review pooled fourteen trials in overweight adults and found a weight difference small enough to be clinically unimportant. A 2024 meta-analysis found a small extra effect when catechins were added to exercise.
The catch is the dose. The trials used standardised extracts, usually several hundred milligrams of catechins a day. This bottle prints no catechin figure and no extract weight. Concentrated extract also has a rare link to liver injury, which is why it has its own LiverTox monograph.
Question 2: how much caffeine does guarana seed add?
Guarana (Paullinia cupana) seed runs roughly two to six per cent caffeine by weight, several times the density of coffee bean. It also carries theobromine and theophylline. The clearest human evidence is for alertness, not for body composition.
Caffeine is the reason a stimulant botanical sits on a metabolism label. It lifts resting energy expenditure for a few hours. That effect is real and small. Because green tea is also on the label, the caffeine arrives from two directions, and the total is not published.
| Extract | Latin name and part | Amount printed | Dose in the cited research | Comparable? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Green tea leaf | Camellia sinensis, leaf | not published | Several hundred mg of catechins daily | No |
| Guarana seed | Paullinia cupana, seed | not published | Standardised to caffeine content | No |
| African mango seed | Irvingia gabonensis, seed | not published | 300 mg of the IGOB131 extract daily | No |
| Coleus forskohlii root | Plectranthus barbatus, root | not published | 50 mg of forskolin daily | No |
| Capsicum annuum fruit | Capsicum annuum, fruit | not published | Stated capsaicinoid doses | No |
| Raspberry ketones | 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)butan-2-one | not published | No human efficacy dose exists | Nothing to compare |

Question 3: is African mango seed as proven as it sounds?
No. African mango (Irvingia gabonensis) is famous and thinly evidenced. A few short trials from one research group reported large effects, the best known being a 2009 double-blind study of a standardised extract called IGOB131. A systematic review judged the quality of those trials poor and declined to call the effect established.
Later pooled reviews found effects too small and too uncertain to recommend. The mild effects reported were a headache, a dry mouth, disturbed sleep and wind. Almost all the positive data comes from one group and one extract. The right reading is not yet shown, not proven.
Question 4: what does Coleus forskohlii root do, and who should ask first?
Coleus forskohlii (Plectranthus barbatus) is the forskolin source. Forskolin raises cyclic AMP inside cells, which is the mechanism the marketing points at. Two small twelve-week trials from 2005 are the ones everyone cites. In overweight men, body composition shifted without a change in body weight. In mildly overweight women, there was no weight loss, though the authors noted it appeared to slow weight gain.
Both trials used 50 mg of forskolin daily. Neither found weight loss. Forskolin can lower blood pressure and affects platelet function, so anyone on blood pressure medicine, a blood thinner or a heart medicine should ask a clinician first.
Question 5: what is capsicum annuum fruit extract for?
This is the pepper extract, used for its capsaicinoids. A meta-analysis found they produce a measurable rise in energy expenditure in healthy adults. A separate pooled analysis found a small effect on energy expenditure and abdominal fat.
The size of that rise is a few dozen calories a day in the studies that measured it. It is real and it is dose dependent, which is a problem when no dose is printed. The commonest complaint is stomach burning and reflux, especially on an empty stomach.
Question 6: do raspberry ketones have any human evidence?
Very little. Raspberry ketone is an aroma compound, made synthetically at supplement scale. The mechanism studies were done in rodents and cell cultures. A 2021 review catalogues that literature and notes the absence of human efficacy trials of the compound on its own.
A systematic review of supplements built on isolated compounds found no reliable weight effect across the class. No serious safety signal has emerged, which partly reflects how little it has been studied in people.
What does the bottle not tell you about the liquid itself?
The label names six extracts and prints no Other Ingredients line. So the liquid that carries them, and any preserving agent, is not published. Glycerin, alcohol and water are common in this format, and this site will not say which one this bottle uses. The sensible habit is to read your own bottle when it arrives. Our ingredients page carries the fuller review.
Frequently asked questions
What are the Gelatide ingredients?
The label lists African mango seed, capsicum annuum fruit, Coleus forskohlii root, green tea leaf, guarana seed and raspberry ketones. Nothing is printed about how much of each is inside.
How much of each extract does a Gelatide serving hold?
Not published. No milligram figure appears on the bottle or on the seller's ingredient artwork, and this site will not estimate one.
Does Gelatide contain caffeine?
Yes, naturally, from green tea leaf and guarana seed. The total per serving is not published, so count it as an unknown in your daily total.
Is there a Supplement Facts panel for Gelatide?
Not one supplied to this desk. The artwork shows a brand name, three claim icons, the words dietary supplement and the volume, 2 fl oz / 60 ml. Follow your own bottle.
Are there other ingredients in Gelatide?
Not published. No Other Ingredients line has been supplied, so the liquid base is unknown. The sales page carries composition marks such as gluten free and vegetarian.
Which Gelatide extract has the strongest evidence behind it?
Green tea leaf has the largest body of human data on the panel, and even that is modest. None of the research used this bottle, and none of it used its unpublished amounts.
Our view
The list is ordinary and the missing column is the story. Six well-known extracts, none with an amount. You can learn what each one does in the research, but you cannot tell how much of it you are getting.
If you want a number before you swallow something, this bottle will not give you one. If you can live with that, treat the guarantee as your safety net and read the safety page first.
Six extracts, no amounts, 60 days to decide
The order link shows what each pack costs and how the 60-day window works. Read your bottle's label on the day it arrives.
