In short. Sorry guys. It will not help you lose weight. If it does it isn't the green tea but the caffeine. So instead drink a black coffee and save your money.


The first study is often thrown around for "proof" it burns fat. it says " Green tea has thermogenic properties and promotes fat oxidation beyond that explained by its caffeine content per se"


Key words "explained by its caffeine content"


2nd link from examine.com

" Any fat burning benefits are dependent on being caffeine naive. "


Save your money guys.
