From a scientific point of view, however, there is another good reason that people favor green tea for weight loss. This is the fact that green tea contains a high level of what are known as “catechin polyphenols” – clever little antioxidants that have all manner of health benefits which go beyond weight loss. They have also been shown to lessen the signs of ageing, and have certain antibiotic properties.

Certain green teas have also been seen to have an effect on the body’s release of carbohydrates, resulting in the burning of fat and more constant blood-insulin levels.

Of course just drinking green tea won’t see you losing weight at a noticeable pace. Unfortunately, you can’t just eat what you want and then drink green tea, but as part of a sensible diet it can make a real difference. Even if you don’t lose any weight for whatever reason, the other attendant health benefits of drinking green tea make the practice worthwhile.

The practice of drinking green tea for weight loss is without question gaining currency, although its effectiveness is debated. Some people say that misinformation is rife, with the idea persisting that green tea in isolation will solve people’s weight problems.

However, the same is true of any scheme to lose weight. Nothing will work in isolation to make the weight just drop off. Diets such as the SlimFast plan make very clear that no simple scheme exists to drive weight loss without significant input from the dieter.

Clearly it is naïve to expect a simple, immediate result from just one thing, and the most important phrase to remember is “as part of a calorie-controlled diet”. What is certain is that, if you drink green tea and watch what you eat, the results will come, particularly alongside a decent physical exercise plan.
