Today's Phenomenal Food is:
Green tea!
Green tea is delicious, not to mention a superfood when it comes to weight loss. My friend Sosha just reached 100 pounds lost using Slim 4 Life, and one of the supplements they have her take is a green tea extract. According to an article called Keeping-It-Off Superfoods from WebMD, "In a recent study, volunteers who drank a bottle of tea (fortified with green tea extract) every day for three months lost more body fat than another group who drank a bottle of regular oolong tea. Except for the different teas, their overall diets were similar. Researchers suspect that the catechins (helpful phytochemicals) in green tea may trigger weight loss by stimulating the body to burn calories and mildly decrease body fat." I used to buy green tea all the time, but for some reason, I stopped. Looks like it's back on the shopping list!
2 days until Weigh-In Wednesday!
I've heard that Green tea is good for your metabolism! I wish I liked tea... I wonder if they have a green tea extract pill?!
