Drinking tea can help reduce fat and lose weight
Experts indicate that caffeine and flavanols in tea can enhance gastrointestinal motility and aid in the digestion of food; Choline and folate in tea soup also have the function of regulating fat metabolism and enhancing the ability to break down fat; Flavonoids, aromatic substances, alkaloids, and other components in tea can reduce the content of cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood lipid concentration, and have a strong lipid-lowering effect; Tea not only helps with digestion, but also protects the gastric mucosa from bleeding caused by gastric ulcers, providing good protection for the gastrointestinal tract. From this perspective, under the combined action of various substances, tea does indeed help digestion and improve the body’s ability to break down fat, naturally achieving the effect of weight loss.
Since everyone knows that drinking tea regularly can achieve the goal of reducing fat and losing weight, let’s briefly introduce some specific effects of various types of tea:
1. Black tea
If people want to lose weight, it’s best to drink hot black tea. No sugar, no creamer, or only sugar substitutes, and it is best not to drink immediately after meals. It is best to drink after an hour.
2. Green tea
Green tea is rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, amino acids, dietary fiber, etc., which can help reduce cholesterol and aid digestion.
3. Oolong tea
Oolong tea is rich in amino acids and fiber, which not only reduces cholesterol and diuresis, but also helps with fat breakdown and promotes metabolism.
According to some research data from the medical community both domestically and internationally, compared to other types of tea, drinking compressed teas such as oolong tea, pu erh tea, brick tea, and tuo tea regularly is more beneficial for reducing cholesterol and weight. These teas have varying degrees of weight loss effects on people of all ages, especially for those aged 40-50. Clinical trial results have shown that over 70% of the population significantly reduced the levels of triglycerides in the human body.
Oolong tea and other compressed teas contain abundant substances such as caffeine, theophylline, theobromine, volatile oils, vitamin C, quercetin, tannins, etc., which have a significant effect on breaking down fat.
Although some substances contained in tea can achieve the effect of reducing fat, tea does not have a direct “weight loss” effect. People should not be misled by improper advertising when purchasing tea. Nowadays, more and more people want to lose weight in the most direct way, but little do they know that obesity is related to a person’s daily diet and exercise level. Therefore, people not only need a reasonable and scientific diet, but also should actively exercise and use tea as an auxiliary, believing that it will definitely achieve the effect of weight loss.
