Green Tea Decreases Abdominal Fat
Green tea is a popular weight-loss supplement that also improves blood sugar regulation and
influences fat cell turnover. While is not a magic bullet that instantly improves metabolic
health, it helps. Kevin Maki from the Provident Clinical Research, in Bloomington, Indiana
showed decreases in total abdominal fat, subcutaneous abdominal fat (under the skin), and blood
triglycerides (blood fat) in people consuming a green tea beverage containing 625 mg of catechins
and 39 mg of caffeine for 12 weeks, compared to a placebo (green tea without catechins or
caffeine). The people also did 180 minutes per week of moderate-intensity exercise.
