Drink green tea before exercise to burn fat. One red and green tablet is enough.

As the weather gradually turns to hot summer, in addition to the soft-serve ice cream whirlwind blowing in convenience stores, cans of tea drinks in freezers are the timeless heat-relief weapon. Surveys show that Taiwan's ready-to-drink functional tea market has an annual business opportunity of more than 3 billion, and among the many tea options, sugar-free green tea is the most popular among consumers, indicating that the good impression that green tea contains antioxidant ingredients already exists in the minds of the general public.

Tea contains high levels of antioxidants, and studies have shown that consuming it before exercise can help increase fat burning effects.

Green tea has high catechin content and is good for burning fat

Green tea helps burn fat. According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, researchers recruited 12 subjects and divided them into two groups to perform moderate-intensity exercise such as cycling. One group of subjects took a placebo before exercise, and the other group took catechins. The results showed that the group taking catechins increased fat consumption by 17% compared to the placebo group, proving that green tea is also helpful for losing fat and fat.

Some people also compare black tea with green tea. Although the catechin content of black tea is not as high as that of green tea, black tea also has its strengths. A report published in the British Nutrition Foundation's Nutrition Bulletin shows that the recommended daily consumption of black tea is about 3 to 4 cups (the size of a normal teacup) to prevent tooth decay. The flavonoids in tea are also an important ingredient that can promote artery dilation, thereby reducing the incidence of stroke and cardiovascular disease.

Red and green match even better! Two nutrients at once

Green tea and black tea contain many tea polyphenols and tea pigments respectively, such as catechins, theaflavins, theaflavins, etc., which are the main biologically active substances in tea and also the main antioxidant components of tea. Modern people often consume excessive amounts of meat, desserts, fried foods and other foods, and invisibly absorb too much calories without knowing it; therefore, developing the habit of drinking tea is a way to help the body promote metabolism and reduce fatigue.

However, for office workers who are busy running around for work, not only do they have to make time to make tea every day, but they also have to worry about drinking too much, which may cause diuresis and the inconvenience of frequent trips to the toilet. There are more convenient options on the market, such as high-quality green tea extract and high-quality low-temperature extracted concentrated black tea extract, which are synthesized in the form of tea tablets. When you are out, you can supplement the healthy ingredients in tea without worrying about excessive caffeine or inconvenience in drinking, making "drinking tea" a very simple and easy thing.
