The weight loss factors that play into helping you lose weight stem from the unique properties of green tea:
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition have concluded that green tea extract could improve your metabolic rate by 4%. This means green tea could increase your metabolism, all thanks to its catechin polyphenols.
Green tea blocks fat by regulating your blood glucose level. The same catechin also work to stop fat being absorbed by your body by slowing down the increase in blood sugar level after a meal, reduce insulin spikes and this work to reduce fat absorption.
Green tea is an appetite suppressant. Since it regulates your blood sugar level, thus it also control your sugar cravings and controls your appetite. When you have less sugar cravings, you will feel less inclined to binge on high fat and sugary food. Your appetite will also be lesser and you may even eat less during mealtimes which will reduce your calorie intake and thus, help you lose weight.
