Can You Lose Weight With The Benefits Of Green Tea?

By Andrew Jackson


Let me tell you my crazy story about drinking green tea and the all the weight I lost. I use to weigh about 190 pounds before I started drinking tea. After drinking it for about 3 months, I lost 30 pounds. How easy is that? If I can do it, anyone can do it too, with a little effort.

Here's the catch. I did give up two of my favorite, full of sugar drinks. I gave up coffee and soda. Instead of drinking my daily dose of supercharge caffeine in the morning, I swapped it for green tea, which also contains caffeine, minus the sugar. During lunch I either drank either cool water or a nice cup of ice or warm tea depending on my mood of course. So what are the benefits of green tea?

Catechins is an antioxidant found in green tea. The catechins boost a person's basal metabolic rate. Increasing your basal metabolic rate will make your body lose more calories naturally, without any exercise. Additional benefits of green tea are preventing heart disease, fighting cancer, and decreasing bad cholesterol.

Another step to losing the weight, was doing very simple exercises. I would go for speed walks for about 20 to 30 minutes. I would recommend jogging for greater results, but since some people have bad knees like myself, I prefer exercises that are easy on the joints. Once you increase your cardiovascular endurance, I challenge you to do jumping jacks, sit-ups, and push-ups.

Drinking green tea and doing easy exercise made me lose weight and fat from my body. If you're delicate with caffeine, I would recommend buying caffeine-free green tea to drink on the evenings or nights. Also it is advise to drink 4 to 5 cups of tea to boost your basal metabolic rate and burn the extra calories. Hopefully this article will encourage you to start or keep drinking tea for the many benefits that green tea offers.
