Green Tea is valuable in aiding any natural weight loss program by increasing the metabolic rate, enabling more efficient fat burn and helping you to lose weight. A recent study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition validates Green Tea's effectiveness in helping people lose weight, indicating the ingestion of catechins (a major natural weight loss component of green tea) leads to both a lowering of body fat and cholesterol levels.

Green Tea is also known to be useful as a glucose regulator, reducing the rise in blood sugar following a meal. It does this by slowing the action of the digestive enzyme called amylase. This digestive enzyme is necessary for the breakdown of starches (carbs), that can cause blood sugar levels to increase following a meal.
