green tea supplements = weight loss?

Question

I got green tea supplements from Walmart that tell me to take three times a day. I read that green tea will help you lose weight. Does anyone know if that's true? Just need to get all this thanksgiving/Christmas weight off lol

Answer

Be careful a lot of those pills have stimulants that can make your heart race.They use  caffeine or other things  to speed up your metabolism. Just be careful. You are better off drinking actual tea. I think. Drink water. Low sugar low salt. High protein. Protein with every meal. Eggs. Nut butter on some whole wheat toast. And a piece of ham. There's breakfast. Portion control. Low carbs and junk food or soda. High healthy fats like avacado. Try and eat 6 small meals your 3 main and healthy snacks in between. An apple and some nut butter. Some tuna on some wheat crackers. Water and exercise. Cardio and weights. Carrots and plain yogurt. Cottage cheese and fruit. Grilled chicken some broccoli and and brown rice. If you have a cheat meal. You don't have to deprive yourself. A table spoon of a friends ice cream sundae. Doesn't mean you have to eat a whole pie a couple of bites won't kill you. But in moderation.

I've never heard of that. If you do take some sort of tea supplement or drink a lot of tea please drink water too.

I know it sounds weird because tea is a water drink right? But it is also very dehydrating and has a lot of caffine. My father tried a tea and spinach diet and got kidney stones because he didn't have enough water.

Drinking water or event the tea itself is never a bad idea either! Just be active and drink lots of water.

Answer

Green tea helps boost metabolism and bloating, it's something that just helps you lose it if you eat healthy and work out. If you don't plan on either of those you won't see results.

Answer

There have been a lot of studies that are on either side of the fence. I drink green tea frequently, but for the antioxidants and a number of people claim it speeds your metabolism up. My boyfriend tried one of those supplements and he was always hungry due to burning so many calories. However, the female body is naturally resistant to losing weight so you may not see results fast, depending on your genetics. People store fat in different areas and some may find it easier, itd be wise to look at family members and their body composition. The main thing to do is to eat right and workout of course.
