Green Tea and Weight Loss

This amazing tea has been shown to improve a person's ability to lose weight on three main fronts.

First, it contains caffeine, which is a known metabolism booster. However, its caffeine levels are lower than the same volume of black tea or coffee, however, its properties to increase metabolism are much greater than any of the drinks. How can this be? Certain other chemicals in green tea have been found to combine with the caffeine content to improve the ability of that particular substance to increase the body's metabolic rate. Therefore, it causes the body to burn more calories than it would otherwise. Combine this with a healthy, low calorie diet and a good exercise program, and you will maximize your ability to lose weight faster and more efficiently.

Second, it was more recently discovered that drinking green tea has an even more potent property in preventing weight gain. Shortly after consuming foods or drinks that have a high composition of refined sugar, or a high content of carbohydrates or saturated fats (high GI), the body's natural response to the flow of sugars into the bloodstream is to release an equally potent amount of insulin. Insulin regulates blood sugar levels by removing excess sugars where the body can convert them into storable fats, in this case visceral fat that is stored mainly in the abdomen area. Belly fat is known to be a catalyst for the onset of certain cancers, as well as a host of other health problems, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and coronary heart disease. Drinking green tea has the effect of suppressing the insulin response to a surge in blood sugar, which means that less abdominal fat will be stored, while the associated increase in metabolic rate consumes excess sugars.

Third, green tea has a calming and relaxing effect on the drinker. This is very useful for reducing stress. Stress is a known element in weight gain because high levels of stress can interfere with digestion, leading to more visceral fats being deposited instead of being used by the body in its normal process. Stress also upsets the body's balance and its ability to fight disease through its immune system, which is depressed when a person is under a lot of stress. All of these problems combine to create many health problems in addition to the weight gain that a simple calming green tea drink can help prevent.

Conclusion:

Therefore, drinking green tea can really help you to weight loss by first helping to prevent the accumulation of visceral fat, and secondly by increasing the body's ability to burn excess sugars and therefore consume more than the calories consumed, which, when combined with a healthy diet and exercise will lead to weight loss.
