Fifty obese subjects were
assigned to a coated Green Tea Extract
tablet plus a low calorie diet while 50 other obese subjects followed
the same low calorie diet only. After 90 days those on the green Tea
extract plus low calorie diet lost 30.8 pounds while those on diet
alone lost 11 pounds. Besides the weight the following improved in both
groups; LDL- and total cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin, and
cortisol, while protective HDL-cholesterol went up. Taking into
consideration the high safety profile of the product and the total
absence of adverse effects observed during and after the trial, Green
Tea Extract appears to be a safe and effective tool for weight loss.
The study is published in the June 2009 issue of the journal Alternative
Medicine Review.
