Green tea and weight loss was never related before but green tea has been around for centuries as a beverage especially for people in the Far East. Long ago people were not very concerned about their body weight or whether they were slim or fat since most of the people in Far East Asia have slim body build. If you go there, especially in the provinces and countryside, you will find that it is still so.
Aside from the naturally slim body, you will notice that they also have naturally smooth skin which is not a product of clinical treatments and spas. But do not give all the credit to green tea itself because it is a combination of many factors such as a healthy diet, physical activity, clean air, and a happy disposition; in short, a simple lifestyle.
Tea is the main beverage of oriental people and is deeply ingrained in their culture and traditions. It has components that help increase metabolism as well as detoxifying properties so the body is cleansed from inside out. There are basically two varieties, the green tea and the black tea; their difference lies in the preparation of the tea leaves prior to storage so that green tea has a yellow to greenish color when brewed while black tea is dark brown to black.
Green and black teas have the same component but green tea has more because of the preparation made. The component that causes major weight loss in green tea is L-carnitine, which studies have shown acts by increasing the metabolic rate of the body using energy from fats.
Green tea is taken from Camellia sinensis plant which contains L-carnitine, which is the major slimming component, and also catechin which helps slow down the building of fats.
Aside from these, there are also other compounds in green tea that remove toxins in the body, and the diuretic effect lets you urinate more often and flush out toxins that have accumulated in your body from pollution, smoking and alcohol.
However, the results with green tea are gradual and it needs to be taken regularly for a long time. This is what oriental people especially the Japanese do, they drink tea almost all their lives and since they seldom eat processed food and fried food, there is not much toxin in their bodies. This and hereditary factors as well as good weather and clean environment gives them that beautiful skin.
If you want to have a good looking body in a short time, you can get into a weight loss diet as well as an exercise regimen that targets fat tissues while regularly drinking green tea and weight loss will be attained in no time.
