Sounds great, doesn't it? Drink some green tea, carry on with everything else as normal, and the weight will drop off! Of course it isn't quite that simple, so let's take a look at why green tea is so popular...
As well as being sold by itself, you'll find green tea extract of some sort in many natural weight loss products. It is claimed, and seems to be backed up by a few good studies, that the ingredients in green tea help with several aspects of weight loss - namely it helps to increase the metabolism, it helps to burn fat quicker, and it helps to regulate blood sugar levels after eating.
Put those 3 together and you do have a powerful claim for a natural healthy weight loss product, but here's the kicker...
If you take supplements to lose weight, you *must* be sure you are not trying to 'cheat' your body.
If you live an unhealthy lifestyle, with no exercise, poor diet, and not enough water, you can take all the pills in the world, but you will never lose weight. It's simple biology and logic, but most people choose to ignore this fact. They'd much rather believe the hype that one pill a day will negate all the damage of an unhealthy lifestyle!
It's just not true, and if you've fallen foul of this particular myth, you may as well save your money on green tea, and go for a walk instead - the effect will probably be the same.
However, if you are taking steps to permanently change your lifestyle to a healthier one, green tea can indeed play a part.
Because of its' caffeine component, it may be best to just drink green tea in place of your regular tea or coffee. That's a simple step that anyone can do which will be a step in the right direction.
Don't expect green tea to be a magic pill you can take after a double cheeseburger to lose weight, but you can expect to be a helpful part of your new healthier lifestyle.
