Green Tea Weight Loss - Myth or Fact?

Have you seen recent Oprah show? Green tea was recently discussed in this show also. I think you might already aware that green tea helps a lot to battle against life-threatening diseases like heart disease, arteriosclerosis and cancer. Yet, there is one more reason why you must prefer green tea. It is nothing but it helps in weight loss and burns your excess fat.

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, January 2005 issue dealt in detail about the benefits of green tea. It clearly indicates that green tea is a real fat fighter. It opined that substances present in green tea, popularly known as catechins, could prompt weight loss by burning calories and body fat.

In general, green tea leaves are not fermented unlike oolong tea and black tea. Also, green tea is rich in polyphenols, shown to have anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anticancer, and anti-oxidant properties.

The action of weight loss has been performed by the green tea by the way it maintains and lowers the blood sugar during the meals time. In other words, we can infer that your body is not creating the substances, which produce fat as readily as it normally would when the green tea is being included.

Green tea is being adored world wide as it offers a much better and less bitter taste than its siblings. The green tea is known for its ability to ease your stomach pain that a lot of people have and that means that it gets disappearing off the shelves every where you turn.

If you're looking for some easy ways to lose some pounds, green tea might be a perfect answer for your prayer. Recently a website is offering a free 30 day supply of green tea, but I'm sure how long this offer might be... so I'd suggest to sign up for your free green tea bags as early as possible.
