Green Tea for Weight Control

Why Use

Green Tea

Why Do Dieters Use It?*

Some dieters say that green tea promotes weight loss.

What Do the Advocates Say?*

Green tea is a good choice for people on a weight-loss program because it can help them to lead a healthier lifestyle. For example, substituting green tea for coffee with cream and sugar not only saves calories but also supplies a lot of healthful substances, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, that can help improve one’s overall health.

Green tea contains a small amount of caffeine, so it serves as a mild appetite suppressant as well.
