How To Detox Your Body With Green Tea

Green tea is now used in many products globally especially within the weight loss and detox diet industry and for products which are used as antioxidants. It can be consumed in many ways including as ‘old fashioned' tea and can be purchased as a liquid or in tablet form but whichever way it is used it has an excellent record as a calorie burner. Another popular use of green tea is in a 7 day detox plan, as apart from everything else it is also very refreshing.



The affect of green tea on the human metabolism is quite amazing as it has anti-aging effects which actually slow down the process of aging if used over a long period of time as it helps the cells regenerate. Whilst this is an added benefit, green tea weight loss products rely on its ability to work as a natural laxative and use as a product that purges toxins from the system and improves the metabolism. Green tea weight loss products increase the number of calories we burn so less fatty tissue forms.



Mention should be made that some dietary efforts should be also taken; you can't eat hamburger and French fries and expect green tea weight loss products to make you slim over night. For the green tea to work, adjustments to diet and attitude will be required in order to become healthier and lose weight.


If you use green tea as a drink then the best time to take this is just before you retire for the night. There is generally an acclimatization period of a couple of days when using green tea products, during which time the user may feel some stomach and bowel discomfort but it shouldn't take too long before this vanishes. Newer users of green tea weight loss products are more likely to see this effect as their body becomes used to the way green tea increases the metabolism to rid it of the toxins and burn of calories that would otherwise turn into fat.


Indications that the green tea is working can generally be seen within seven days of use providing other aspects of the diet are followed like plenty of fluids plus physical activity combined with fruit and vegetables. Sometimes you will find ginseng is mixed with green tea to improve its properties.


Ginseng helps to supplement to green tea with minerals and vitamins that will increase its efficiency. Ginseng is also good for the immune system and when used in combination with green tea it helps to improve the person's energy who is trying to lose weight so they do not feel too lethargic. As with many natural products, no side-effects have been found with tea tree and ginseng even when use for extended weight loss periods of six months.
