Green Tea for Weight Loss

In a human study, participants taking green tea extract and still following a typical Western diet experienced a significant increase in their energy expenditure. The researchers concluded that participants using green tea extract had increased fat oxidation beyond what could be attributed to the caffeine they consumed. This indicates that green tea contains beneficial components that affect the body's metabolism in such a way that favors weight loss.

In addition, researchers observed that participants using green tea extract did not have increased heart rate, suggesting that green tea may be an alternative to many stimulant based diet aids.
