How Can Teas Boost Weight Loss?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the primary compounds of green tea leaves is caffeine. It acts as a mild stimulant that works to improve exercise performance<\/a> and fat burning. According to research, the most impressive aspect of green tea\u2019s nutritional profile is the antioxidant content. Researchers confirmed that drinking green tea works to slowly increase blood antioxidant levels. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is the standout antioxidant in green tea and it has been known to boost metabolism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to burn fat, the body has to break down fat cells and move them into the bloodstream. EGCG works to inhibit an enzyme that breaks down norepinephrine, a hormone involved in fat burning. By inhibiting this enzyme, norepinephrine increases to enhance the breakdown of fat cells. Caffeine may also enhance the efforts of EGCG on fat cells. Additionally, EGCG increases the body\u2019s ability to burn more calories, even at resting metabolic rate. Most studies confirmed that people who drank green tea experienced a 3-4% increase in metabolism. If you follow a 2,000 calorie per day diet, that translates to about 60-80 calories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
