Belly Fat And How To Lose It
Christmas is officially over, which mean it's time lose the sugar cookie-induced pounds. You'll not only be fighting cancer and heart disease by sipping green tea , but you'll shrink your belly, especially if you're walking, too, according to a study in the Journal of Nutrition. Study participants drank a beverage containing catechins-powerful antioxidant compounds in green tea-or a beverage with no catechins. They also did about 180 minutes of moderately intense exercise, mainly walking , each week. After 12 weeks, green tea drinkers had lost 7.4% more abdominal fat than non-green-tea drinkers. Catechins increase metabolism and the rate at which the liver burns fat. To reap those rewards, drink four to six cups of caffeinated green tea a day and log at least 180 minutes of exercise each week.
And that's exactly what the researchers proposed in the study mentioned above. Fast weight loss is much more motivating. It quickly improves your quality of life as well as your outlook. And this study found that when factors such as physical appearance, perceived health, energy levels, and body image improve during the first four weeks of a weight loss program, better outcomes are more likely in the short and long term.
