A Drink for a Smaller Waist
|
Posted By: Erika Neal on March 30, 2009 Here’s an easy way to turn a routine workout into a powerful waist-whittler: Drink green tea. That’s right. Ditch the Gatorade and instead sip several mugs of the green stuff throughout the day. Research shows that the wonder duo of green tea and exercise may target belly fat better, so it shrinks more easily than with exercise alone. Fat-Busting Brew In a study, overweight adults who engaged in an exercise program for 12 weeks lost more belly fat if they also drank green tea daily. The green tea seemed to boost overall weight loss and triglyceride control in the study group, too. The magic amount of tea needed for the effect? Enough to get about 625 milligrams of catechins plus a little caffeine every day (roughly 7 cups daily). The Power of Green Researchers think that catechins in green tea might blast tummy fat by acting on enzymes that influence the body’s calorie- and fat-burning mechanisms. And catechins and caffeine together may boost the body’s metabolism. Brew up a pot of tea the next time friends visit and you can all enjoy these extra benefits as well: More energy. Healthier joints. Stronger heart. (From realage.com) If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
