Consumption of Green Coffee Reduces Blood Pressure and Body Composition by Influencing 11<i>β</i>-HSD1 Enzyme Activity in Healthy Individuals: A Pilot Crossover Study Using Green and Black Coffee

<table>Inhibition of glucose-6-phosphate by chlorogenic acid. CGA is involved in blocking the uptake of glucose-6-phosphate by inhibiting glucose-6-phosphate translocase. This prevents the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from providing NADPH as a cofactor for the reductase activity and so the conversion of cortisone to cortisol is inhibited. NADPH: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. Adapted from a Ph.D. thesis by Al Moosawi, Queen Margaret University, 2010 [<a href="/journals/bmri/2014/482704/#B42">42</a>].</table>
