Does Green Tea Help with Weight Loss? In this article I’ll go through if it does and what it can do for you.
Lets get started, shall we?
If you haven’t already noticed many people are now turning to these green tea diets as they think it will be there secret to losing weight. But does it really work?
Research has shown us that green tea does help reduce weight as it stimulates your body’s heat generator system (theromogenesis). By stimulating this process it can raise your metabolism or basically increase the energy you spend.
Now you may be thinking, well all those diet pills do that. Yes they do, however what’s unique about green tea is that is actually does it without increasing your heart rate like all the other supplements.
In other words, you can get the benefits (increase metabolism & fat loss) without the risks that come along with weight loss pills. This is especially important if you have any type of heart related illnesses or have a high risk or developing one – like hypertention for example.
So, will I lose weight just sitting on my bum and consuming green tea? Well, let me start by saying this: in order to lose fat from your body you must do one or both of the following: consume less calories. Second – spend more energy.
And if you recall I just mentioned that green tea will in fact raise your energy expenditure without any exercise. So yes you can lose weight sitting on your bum. However…
How fast do you want to lose it?
We know what the research says, we know there’s all types of proof, but the practical results are what I pay attention to. And in my experience, you wont get massive results just by drinking green tea or taking green tea supplements.
So consider learning about nutritional strategies or you might even want to consider…
Exercising! Yes, I said it. You may actually have to exercise 3-4 times a week if you want great results. Sorry about the bad news.
With that said, it’s a great idea to start implementing green tea as part of you regular diet. Also keep in mind that green tea has many other benefits. It contains very powerful anti oxidants which have a vast array of health benefits. One of the most important benefits of the green tea ( not related to weight loss )is its strong anti aging effect, a benefit worthy of your attention.
It also has been found to strengthen your immune system and protecting against diseases, as well as better energy levels as reported by users.
So in conclusion, green tea is not the secret answer that will solve all your weight loss issues, however it is something that you definitely want to include in your diet. It’s fast, easy, natural & safe.
Green tea can be found at your local supermarket or can be purchased online. If you cannot drink it ( it does have a rather unpleasant taste for some people), you can take it as pills that are basically concentrated green tea.
