Green Tea Weight Loss

Increasing signs of green tea weght loss abilities

Green Tea weight loss is increasingly showing evidence of being a reality. This puts green tea among the effective weight loss supplement ingredients. It is a supplement that is proving more and more to be effective. Only few other natural extracts like Caralluma are proven to be more effective.

Though there are skeptics, green tea weight loss would be among the first few herbs that show significant scientific evidence of being a fat burner. Others include the now U.S banned though famed ephedra weight loss. Even before the jury is out, green tea is increasingly included in several weight loss supplements and weight loss products. 

As a herb, green tea has been used in China for at least 4000 years as a traditional medicine. It is one of the regular beverages among the Okinawa inhabitants, a Japanese island, whose population is known to live longer than any other in the world.

Green Tea is believed to be affect weight loss in two main ways

(i) First it has been shown to regulate glucose. 

The nature of carbohydrates is that they are easily digestible. 

More so a diet consisting of processed carbohydrate which are easily broken down to release glucose. 

This glucose is quickly absorbed in to the blood stream quickly increasing the blood glucose. See  "Go Beyond Calories" (And Lose Belly Fat Permanetly)  to learn more.

This in turn triggers hormones that encourage the body to turn most of this glucose into body fat for storage as it is not needed in the quantities available.

Green Tea seems to regulate this glucose conversion to body fat by keeping it available for immediate use for energy. This automatically reduces the amount of body fat your body creates.

A substance called Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), a catechin polyphenol found in Green Tea, is credited for this effect. EGCG is an anti-oxidant similar to Vitamin E. However it is considered many times more powerful.

As an anti-oxidant EGCG lowers cholesterol, prevents lipogenesis, encourages fat oxidation, reduces bad breath, fight dental cavities and is an anti-carcinogenic as well as an anti-bacterium.

(ii) The second effect is through an increase in thermogenesis. Green Tea ingredients intensify levels of fat oxidation and body’s production of heat, (Note this increase in heat has nothing to do with being active) resulting to increased metabolism. This contributes to why green tea is considered a fat burner.

The magic of green tea lies in how it is prepared. As opposed to the other tea leaves, green tea is not fermented before steaming and drying. Usually to make tea leaves after harvesting, the leaves are fermented, steamed and then dried. Green tea is processed without fermenting. The steaming further protects EGCG from being oxidised. In the other teas, fermenting the tea leaves converts EGCG into other compounds that do not have the drastic properties of weight loss in Green Tea. 

There are several kinds of green tea, all with some weight loss properties. They include Gyakuro, Mach, Genmaicho, Bancha and Sencha the most popular in Japan. The taste may not be to every-ones liking, luckily there are products that are contain concentrated extracts of green tea. This same weight loss extracts are the ingredients of most Green Tea based weight loss supplements. 

Even with the buzz building behind this herbal weight loss supplement, it is important that you understand that green tea weight loss is in itself is not a weight loss solution. Permanent weight loss involves a change in lifestyle. See  "Go Beyond Calories" (And Lose Belly Fat Permanetly)  to learn more. 

And just like all other effective diet supplements e.g. Caralluma, green tea can be part of this lifestyle change as weight loss support structure.
