Green Tea

It has been well researched that drinking green tea is beneficial for burning body fat, but you can get even better fat burning results from taking green-tea extract supplements. Green-tea extract (in the form of supplements) is easier to measure and regulate than drinking the tea itself. But if you are craving a hot beverage, opt for green tea instead of chai tea or coffee to reap the benefits of green tea.

Green tea is made using the leaves of the Chinese Camellia sinensis plant. The leaves are either steamed or dry cooked shortly after picking to minimize oxidation, which gives the tea the benefits it is credited with.

The active ingredient in green tea is called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a powerful antioxidant, with anti-inflammatory, cholesterol reducing benefits that is responsible for boosting your metabolic rate!


Take 200 to 500 milligrams of green-tea extract (50% EGCG) three times per day or enjoy a cup of steaming green tea multiple times a day!
