If you are not aware about the properties of green tea for weight loss as well as fat burning, you need to have a look at the best and most known fat burners. You will find that most of these have mentioned Green Tea in their list of the primary ingredients. (Please go through the review on Lipovox and Hydroxycut Hardcore)

Several clinical studies made on Green Tea have concluded that Green Tea burns the body fat. Apart from being a fat burner, there are several other health benefits of green tea. Hence, you will find green tea as the key ingredient in fat burners. Let us see what health benefits green tea has to offer:

Benefits of Green Tea

Previously, caffeine, ephedrine and aspirin or ECA were blended together, and was considered as an effective fat burner. However, later, using ephedra was banned and now it is no longer in use. Green tea has no side effects and hence it has emerged as a safer and healthier option for weight loss. Many a times, the extract of Green tea is used in place of caffeine or is mixed with the caffeine product.

The advantages of Green Tea do not confine to weight loss only. In addition to weight loss, it offers several other health benefits. Green Tea contains strong anti-oxidant properties. The at the active ingredient in the green tea commonly known as ECGC or epigallocatechin gallate has around 200 times more anti oxidant properties than found in Vitamin E.

Green tea helps in controlling the level of blood sugar after a meal. This is achieved by restricting the action of amylase- digestive enzyme. This enzyme is responsible for breaking carbohydrates in to various components, and this leads to increase in blood sugar, after meal. Hence, green tea might interest you if you are not able to control your blood sugar.

Green tea facilitates weight loss by increasing metabolism in the body. This results in burning greater number of calories. The study conducted by American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Vol. 81, No. 1, 122-129, January 2005) notes that consuming Green Tea helps in reducing cholesterol levels and body fat.

Does Green Tea Cause Weight Loss?

Like most people I too have experimented with lots of fat burners, such as Lipovox and Hydroxycut. Per servicing, these products contain more than 400mg of green tea extract. Though I cannot say for sure it’s effect on reducing blood sugar, but Lipovox has certainly subsided my hunger pangs and appetite, enhanced energy levels and also helped me shed 4 pound of fat in less than 15 days. Since, body fat comprise 9% in my case, losing 4 pounds is quite an achievement. The greatest advantage of green tea was that it did not cause jitters or headaches, which I suffered while consuming Ripped Fuel or Ripped Fuel.

Green Tea comes out as a winner if we compare fat burning ingredients that were reviewed in last 5 years. This is not a “miracle pill”. Maintain healthy food habits, exercise well for weight loss. Now, when you include green tea in your diet, you hasten the process of weight loss.

Getting Green Tea

The ideal method of having green tea is through one of the fat burners that contain green tea as primary ingredient. Lipovox, Hydroxycut Hardcore and Xyphedra contain a good percentage of green tea. Several other products also contain green tea in good proportion.

Some people take green tea by adding it in coffee or tea. However, I don’t prefer hot drinks prior to exercise or even after that.

Conclusion for Green Tea

Green tea is supposed to be an ideal health promoting supplement and a superb fat burner. This is supported by several clinical studies made to observe fat burning capability of green tea. For burning fat and losing some pounds, include green tea as a part of your healthy diet, and exercise well.
