Green tea has been the center of a recent explosion of weight loss products and promotions, some have been advertising on Steepology, and I try to block them but a new one pops up everyday which is beyond my control. The marketers are focusing on the fact that green tea boosts your metabolism, they neglect to tell you that the boost in your metabolism is quite negligible. To lose a pound a week a person must cut their calorie intake by over 3500 calories a week, but drinking 5 cups of green tea a day for a week allows you to burn only 70-90 calories. 70 - 90 calories off of your regular calorie intake is definitely a positive thing considering every calorie counts. However just drinking green tea alone will not cut the fat as many of these products claim. A conscious change in a current lifestyle is required to cut the fat that has been gained by living and eating a certain way. We all would like to think that there is a quick and easy way to reverse the effects of an unhealthy diet, but aside from drastic and expensive surgery this is not possible. I hope readers will take this into consideration before purchasing any of the green tea weight loss products offered on the internet right now, hopefully reading this will save you time, money, and the distress of a failed diet. If you are serious about losing weight, we recommend entering a training program at your local gym, matched with a balanced diet with an appropriate calorie consumption for your activity level. Be wary of wu yi slimming teas and weight loss teas parading as one fix wonders to your weight struggles. Don’t stop drinking tea and keep visiting the blog!
