WEIGHT LOSS

METABOLISM AND WEIGHT LOSS

I highly recommend the below teas when looking to boost your metabolism for weight loss;

Black tea

It’s usually packed with flavones which have shown to speed up metabolism and aid support weight loss by supporting excess calorie or fat burning in the body. The caffeine in black tea can also improve metabolism especially when taken in the morning and regulate total BMI.

Matcha tea

Matcha is a popular high quality herbal Japanese tea containing caffeine, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Taking a cup of matcha tea before workout has shown to boost metabolism and fat oxidation which aid in weight loss. Fat oxidation is the pace at how the body uses or burns body fat, a higher rate implies increased weight loss.
