You probably already know that a shot of caffeine before your
workouts can give you more energy and help you burn more fat.
For that reason, millions of people drink a cup or two of
coffee before hitting the weights or heading off to aerobics
class.

But did you know that tea - especially green tea - has been
shown to be far more effective than coffee for fat loss?
Recent research shows that tea’s combination of natural
caffeine and phytochemical antioxidants (called “catechins”) is
incredibly effective at promoting fat loss, mainly by elevating
thermogenesis (body heat production).
There is also evidence that chemicals in tea help to protect
lean muscle tissue and stabilize blood sugar levels - not to
mention boost your immune system, inhibit tumor growth, kill
dangerous bacteria, and much, much more!
Simply put, tea burns fat more efficiently than coffee and
provides far more health benefits. Drink 2 strong cups of green
tea half an hour before your workouts. You’ll get the energy-
boost of coffee as well as the fat-burning, muscle-saving, and
health-promoting benefits of tea!
