Is Weight Loss Effective With A Green Tea Supplement?

Is weight loss really effective with a green tea supplement in a diet program?


Studies indicate that green tea is more effective than any other caffeinated beverage in aiding weight reduction.

Why is this, despite its very low levels of caffeine?

The answer is that the polyphenols (antioxidants) and especially EGCG (epigalocatechin-gallate) in green tea are extraordinarily effective in assisting the body lose weight.

Most diets fail because they trigger the body's survival instincts and push it into an 'energy-saving' mode.

With this comes a decreased metabolic rate and hence the burning of fewer calories.

Green tea works in the opposite way by increasing the metabolic rate by at least 4% due to the polyphenols, using up more calories while it is involved in the process of thermogenesis - producing heat and energy.

For real and fast weight reduction, calories must be burned up.

Often diets assist in losing water weight (easily regained once you are rehydrated) or muscle.

Green tea helps get rid of fat instead.


Amylase, a digestive enzyme that is crucial in the breakdown of carbohydrates is slowed down by green tea.

This means that the rise of blood sugar after meals is lessened and the levels are stabilised. This reduces the possibility of 'binge eating'.

Studies also show that green tea constituents increase endurance levels and stamina by as much as 24% by increasing the use of fatty acids by liver and muscle cells, allowing longer exercise times.


Consequently more calories are used and more pounds shed...a great result and solution to quick, healthy weight loss!
