(drinking lots of green tea)
is it dangerous? what is the theory behind it? how well does it work?
The Green Tea diet is not a liquid fad diet where you drink green tea morning, noon, and night to lose weight. The properties of green tea have been shown to speed up the metabolism of the person drinking it. It’s almost like eating a really hot pepper. The body goes through a thermogenic reaction. Heat is released and the body’s metabolism gets a jumpstart. You don’t have to only drink tea to get this reaction.
Green tea works in conjunction with the body. Adding green tea to your healthy eating plan is enough to enjoy the effects of the ingredients in the tea. Drinking the tea reduces the appetite too. The blood sugar remains stable when green tea is drank on a regular basis. Essentially, it helps you to feel full longer and keeps you from being hungry all the time.
Carbohydrates that aren’t used for energy by the body are stored as fat. This process occurs each day. Green tea is also thought to block the storage of carbohydrates as fat for a short time. When a person drinks green tea, the body allows a bigger window for the consumption of carbohydrates for fuel by the body and less gets stored as fat. The length of time is not certain but any help to keep fat from depositing itself on our frame is beneficial.
