DIET PRODUCTS MADE WITH GREEN TEA
Health and Fitness July 4th, 2009There’s lots of talk going around about the benefits of green tea and weight loss.Many weight loss supplements, use green tea in fact.What is responsible for helping this ingredient to burn fat and increase metabolism? Why has it become so popular a variety of other health benefits including weight loss?
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition published a report that found out that men who were given a combination of caffeine and green tea extract burned more calories than those given only caffeine.Additionally the study concluded: “Green tea has thermogenic properties and promotes fat oxidation beyond that explained by its caffeine content per se. The green tea extract may play a role in the control of body composition via sympathetic activation of thermogenesis, fat oxidation, or both.”
Green tea contains high levels of polyphenols, commonly called catechins particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). .The catechins stimulate the body to decreasing body fat while burning calories.The high levels of catechins polyphenols found in green tea work to build up the body’s level of fat oxidation, meaning heat formed in the body by consuming excess fat as fuel.Because it has more catechins than black tea, green tea has rapidly gained in popularity.In addition, whereas not even possible with black teas, green tea leaves are steamed thus preventing the EGCG compound from being oxidized. Rich in antioxidants green tea is also celebrated to be beneficial for:
