One Of The Benefits Of Green Tea Is Losing Weight

By Andrew Jackson


I have this personal unbelievable story about how I lost weight just by drinking green tea. Before I started drinking tea I use to weigh about 190 pounds. Three months later, I had lost 30 pounds. Just how simple is that? Virtually anyone can do what I did, just with little effort.

There is always a catch, and here it is. In addition to drinking tea, I also gave up two of my favorite drinks. I quit drinking soda and coffee. Green tea contains caffeine and no sugar. I swapped my coffee in the morning for tea, and still had my caffeine. You can also purchase decaf tea, if you wish to not drink caffeine. For lunch I would drink water or iced tea instead of soda. So how does green tea help you lose weight?

Green tea contains amazing benefits like antioxidants called catechins. These catechins help increase your basal metabolic rate (BMR) which means you burn more calories just by drinking green tea. Other benefits of drinking tea is that it fights cancer, heart disease, and lowers 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.

In order to lose weight and burn fat, you must drink 4 to 5 cups of green tea. I would suggest drinking decaf tea in the evenings to keep you from not sleeping at night. Also, don't forget to get daily but easy cardiovascular exercise. Remember that green tea increases your basal metabolic rate so it is important to drink tea daily. Thank you for reading this article, I hope it will motivate you to start drinking green tea for many several health benefits other than losing weight.
