Green Tea Weight Loss

Have you been drinking green tea? Weight loss is said to be one of the benefits from drinking such herbal tea. This is because tea helps in a body process known as thermogenesis. This is where your body is given extra boost to produce its own heat.

Japanese scientists found that drinking five cups of green tea a day will help a person to lose up to 80 calories. It is also found that to lose a pound over a week, you have to cut down your calorie intake by 3500 calories. For those who are fast, you will realize that it would take nearly 44 days to drop a pound.

Weight Loss Herbal Tea: Do They Work?

If you looking for weight loss herbal tea, look no further than your simple green tea. Just like coffee, green tea can help to release some amount of thermogenesis into your body because of the caffeine content.

While no one will drink coffee for its weight-loss possibilities, drinking weight loss herbal tea is known to be able to help you lose weight indirectly. The reason is that you are not likely to add milk or sugar into such teas and as such your calorie intake is reduced. Green tea also contains a high level of catechin polyphenols which are a form of antioxidants that can help with the health of your skin.

The GI Diet: Diet to Lose Weight

Many people consider the GI Diet as the diet to lose weight and think that the GI diet is related to G.I. Joe, the fictitious American soldier of television cartoon fame – or with American troops of World War II, where the abbreviation “GI” stands for either Government Issue, General Infantryman or Galvanised Iron depending on whom you hear it from.

This is a common misconception because the term GI actually refers to the “Glycaemic Index” of different foods, and the theory that judging foods by their Glycaemic Index can allow the dieter to lose weight and live a more healthy life.

Low Carb Weight Loss Diet The Atkins Way

Early this century, we saw a huge diet fad based on the low carb weight loss diet. Such diets are based on the idea that the obstacle to weight loss is carbohydrates. One of the most popular one during that time was the Atkins diet.

If someone visited your house during those days and politely declined your offer of a snack, the most likely reason they would offer is that, “I’m on the Atkins.” No further explanation was necessary. You couldn’t move for newspaper articles analysing the Atkins diet.
