Due to the popularity of recent findings, green tea diet has almost become a necessity for everyone who wants to lose weight. The addition of green tea diet pills and weight loss supplements is perhaps spurred by reports of harmful side effects of other drugs such as ephedrine.

Why Why choose green tea diet?

For four thousand years, this type of diet has been used throughout Asia as beneficial to health and drinking medicinal. Is different from all other tea diets because its liquid is extracted by steaming the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis complete oxidation. Thus, the area manages to retain much antioxidant and keep them intact so that the body uses.

green tea diet is an excellent source of polyphenols polycatechin, a group of antioxidants that act on free radicals. These free radicals have harmful effects on the body, since they are the leading causes of illness and aging. With polycatechin green tea polyphenols, a person is more likely to avoid illness and keep himself healthy for a much longer over time.

Another antioxidant in green tea is also being studied as a possible cure for cancer. epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG has been discovered to destroy cancer cells while keeping surrounding healthy cells unharmed.

EGCG also acts with another compound, caffeine (A small amount of this is found in green tea). The interaction of these two compounds causes green tea to promote thermogenesis in the body.

It has been suggested by a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition that green tea consumption, the body's total energy expenditure of 24 hours increases up to four percent. This is roughly equivalent to the loss of more than 10 pounds per month.

Green Tea Diet helps increase body's metabolic rate as well. With its thermogenic properties, it is only natural that can also promote faster metabolism of fats and sugars. Excess glucose in the body becomes fat by the hormone insulin. Because green tea has an inhibitory effect on insulin, therefore, helps keep sugar to be stored as fat and instead, sent directly into the muscles for immediate use.

The disadvantage of a green tea diet

Although this type of diet has a reputation for boosting health, scientific evidence of its health benefits are still somewhat mixed. However, in an article published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine, American researchers collaborated with their Chinese counterparts to discuss the beneficial effects of green tea on cholesterol levels.

Using 240 men and women (average age 55) who possess mild to moderately high levels of LDL cholesterol, the researchers were instructed to keep their diet usual low-fat, consumption of green tea diet and activity levels. After twelve weeks, they found that those who consumed green tea with your regular meals lost more than fifteen percent of their total levels of LDL cholesterol.

Although the researchers never explained how tea can influence levels cholesterol, previous studies have shown that certain compounds in green tea play a role in reducing the amount of cholesterol absorbed by the body, the amount increasing cholesterol excreted, and therefore keep your cholesterol is stored in the liver.

Further studies were done to test the results of the first investigators. Their results were contradictory. They found that green tea diet has no significant effect on cholesterol profiles of their subjects.

There is no such thing as a miracle diet. Green tea diet, like all other diets, needs a lot of work and contributions of those who enroll in it. It requires discipline and heart to make a significant impact on their weight loss goals.
