It is important to note that using green tea to help you lose weight is not a fad diet. Not a cabbage soup diet all over again. If you want to keep thin, you need to do more than a green tea cleanse every now and then. It is best to do a new exercise program, change your diet, and drink green tea if you really want to lose the weight. Green tea is not going to magically help you erase the bad habits of eating junk food, and then sitting on the couch and watching television all day long while you pack on the pounds. It takes more work than that. Certainly, you want to lose the weight on a permanent basis. Don't you?
Increasing the fat oxidation process of your body can happen when you drink green tea. So when there is increased oxidation, the fat cells shrink, making it easier to burn the calories that are stored. You gain weight during the day because you are actually burning fewer calories than what you actually intake.
EGCG, a compound that's related to catechins, is what's responsible for green tea's weight loss properties. Most studies show that, to encourage weight loss you need a certain level of this compound in the green tea you drink. Basically, the way you brew tea factors greatly in this. The type of green tea you purchase is also an important factor. There are lots of different brands and varieties to choose from, so make sure you check for the compound on the ingredients list. Green coffee extract is something you may want to consider if you don't like the taste of green tea.
So, in addition to helping you reduce your weight, it keeps you from packing more weight on. This is another reason that green tea is beneficial in regard to overall weight loss. Trying out green tea for your diet may be a great move for you. Certainly not a wonder drug, though it does work. It won't work unless you combine it with healthy lifestyle, diet and exercise choices. In this article, we have presented you with some ways to lose weight. Finding other possibilities for weight loss can happen with research on your own. You just need to do your weight-loss routine, and you will shed the pounds. Good luck!
