Potential Health Benefits of Green Tea Extract
Green tea consumption is reportedly associated with various health-promoting properties. Make a example, it has been shown to promote fat oxidation in humans at rest and to prevent obesity and improve insulin sensitivity in mice. Recent there is a study performed at Birmingham (UK) University by Michelle C Venables, Asker E Jeukendrup,Hannah R Cox and Carl J Hulston,it was shown that average fat oxidation rates were 17% higher after ingestion of Green Tea Extract than after ingestion of a placebo. Similarly the contribution of fat oxidation to total energy expenditure was same significantly higher by a similar percentage following ingestion of Green Tea Extract. This proves that ingestion of Green Tea Extract can ‘t only increase fat oxidation during moderately intensive exercise but also improve insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance in healthy young men. |
