Product Description
Extracts from green tea leaves (Camellia sinensis) can boost the rate at which the body burns calories by as much as 40% over a 24 hour period. This is due to its ability to inhibit a metabolic enzyme (catechol-O-methyl transferase) so that levels of noradrenaline increase to stimulate the amount of energy burned in body cells (thermogenesis). It may also block the activity of intestinal enzymes (gastric and pancreatic lipases) needed to digest dietary fat, so that less fat is absorbed. Several trials have suggested that adding green tea extracts to a weight loss regime helps to improve fat loss. For example, a study involving 60 obese adults following a prepared diet of three meals a day found that, compared with placebo, those taking green tea extracts lost an additional 2.7kg during the first month, 5.1kg during the second month and 3.3kg during the third month. This is an extract taken from the book by Dr Sarah Brewer, (The essential Guide to Vitamins, Minerals and Herbal Supplements).
