Green tea weight loss diets have been doing the rounds for some time. As
usually is the case, their popularity increased once celebrities started using
them and claiming weight loss on them. These days you can see green tea in
several products for its claimed anti-aging effects as well as for weight loss.
1. Not A
Fad Diet:
You must keep in
mind the difference between the Green Tea weight loss diet and a fad diet. You
do not drink green tea all day, and eat almost no food to lose weight. The use
of green tea is because of its properties that have been shown to speed up the
metabolism of the person drinking it, and obviously this is beneficial for
weight loss. Green tea is thus one of a few tactics you can use to speed up
your metabolism and increase your weight loss.

2. It increases your metabolism:
When you drink
green tea the body goes through a reaction that produces heat and assists in
the burning of fat. In this process heat is released and the body's metabolism
gets a jumpstart. You don't have to only drink tea to get this reaction there
are other foods that will have the same effect. Cold water also increases you
metabolism for about ninety minutes afterwards.
These properties
of green tea work together with your body to speed up weight loss. All you need
to do is add green tea to a healthy balanced diet and you will reap the
benefits of the green tea effects. It really is as easy as that. There is no
need to include any expensive supplements if you do not wish to.
3. It
suppresses your appetite:
Another very important benefit of green tea is that it reduces the appetite. By
drinking Green tea on a regular basis it helps to keep your blood sugar levels
stable. So, actually the best benefit of green tea is that it keeps you from
being hungry all the time. Obviously this keeps you from snacking and giving in
to temptations!
We all know that
the body stores excess carbohydrates as fat. This is an ongoing process. It is
believed that Green tea keeps the body from doing that for a short space of
time after you have had a cup of Green tea. When you drink green tea, your body
allows a bigger window for eating carbohydrates to use as fuel for the body and
therefore less of the carbohydrates gets stored as fat. This has the added
benefit of more sustained energy levels. The length of this working is not
known, but we can use all the help we can get!
4. Your
caffeine fix without the empty calories:
Another very
important benefit of Green tea is that it helps caffeine addicts to eat fewer
calories as well. Green tea also contains caffeine. So the benefit for the
caffeine addicts is that they can have their caffeine fix without adding the
milk and sugar, thus without adding calories to their diet.
Unfortunately it
is true that green tea is rather bitter but small amounts of sugar substitutes
can sweeten it to make it palatable. For many coffee drinkers cutting out the
calories added by sugar and milk will be enough to start the weight loss
process. I also find Green tea very beneficial as a "pick me up" when
I'm having a bad day and I'm very tired. This in turn stops me from nibbling,
as I tend to snack when I'm tired.
Most people do
not realize how many empty calories they consume each day with drinking coffee
and other beverages. Eliminating even half of those empty calories will promote
weight loss. This is something to keep in mind with all beverages you normally
drink, even fruit juice. Try and get into the habit of drinking Green tea when
you crave something. With any diet it is always to have a kind of
"stop" that you fall back on when the going starts getting tough.
Start having a
cup of green tea with every meal if you enjoy having something to drink with
your meals. Even one or two cups of green tea a day will let you reap the
health and weight loss benefits of the tea. There are many ways you can use to
get the green tea into your system for weight control. Green tea is also
available as a cold tea drinks and in nutritional supplement. During the summer
I find cold Green tea very refreshing and satisfying.
For me the most
important part is that you can add green tea to any diet plan that you want to
use. In doing so you can improve your weight loss without any real added
effort. So, any diet can be turned into a green tea weight loss diet.
