A Guide to Green Tea Information


According to the green tea information provided by some supplement manufacturers, the extract is a fat burner. There have been a couple of scientific studies that support this statement, but it is not the only thing that you need for weight loss and it is not the only extract that promotes fat oxidation or burning.


There are other benefits of the extract, which I'll try to touch on in this article, but first, I want to help those of you that need to lose weight learn a few things. Dietary fats are necessary for human life. They perform a variety of roles in the human body.


Certain nutrients are only used by the body, when they are in the company of fat. Certain kinds of dietary fats, primarily omega3 fatty acids, are better for your health than others. While most of your calories should come from protein and complex carbohydrates, like fruits and vegetables, about 30% of your calories should come from healthy fats.



The green tea information concerning the supplement's fat burning ability is misleading. The idea is that certain nutrients increase the body's core temperature, causing it to burn more calories when it is at rest. Notice, that I said calories, not fat. In order to lose weight, you need to burn more calories than you take in, on a daily basis, which probably means that you need to move around more.


Fat burners do not burn your fat stores, they increase the number of calories that your body burns during rest and activity and may burn dietary fat. Fat stores will be used, when necessary, to supplement the fats that are present in your diet and may be used as energy, if your calorie consumption is too low.


So, to be accurate, the green tea information should always include the statement that proper diet and adequate exercise are necessary. Most of them do, but it is in very small print at the bottom of the label.


Other ingredients that raise the core body temperature include caffeine and ephedra, but neither of this is good for your long-term health. Nutrients that are beneficial include chromium, boron, ginger and ginkgo biloba, as well as green tea.


Whether or not you are trying to lose weight, a multi-nutritional supplement is the best choice. It should contain all of those nutrients, as well as the basic vitamins, amino acids and minerals that your body needs every day.


According to green tea information published by researchers, the extract may help reduce your risk of heart disease and cancer.


Primarily, this benefit is due to the unique antioxidants that it contains, called catechins. Different plants contain a variety of different antioxidants that help the body fight free radical damage, one of the primary causes of cellular aging.



For those of you that want to live a long healthy life, free of debilitating diseases, antioxidant supplementation is extremely important.


Now that you have a little green tea information, you might want to learn about other antioxidants and the other causes of cellular aging.


Taking green tea with other nutrients as mentioned above will have a maximum impact on your health rather than taking green tea as a stand alone supplement. It will also save you from taking handfuls of pills everyday when one supplement will do.


To learn about the multi nutrient products that I personally take go to my website now.
