| Caffeine Burn More Calories |
Caffeine is a stimulant, and stimulants tend to increase calories burned. Besides caffeine consumption will also increase the supply of energy so we become more mobile. Caffeine also causes metabolic changes in the body that triggers the calorie burning.
"Research also shows past 250 milligrams of caffeine consumed with food will increase the calories are metabolized to 10 percent," said Jamie Pope, a lecturer in nutrition from Vanderbilt University School of Nursing.
Although the numbers seem small, but if you do continue to be sizable effect. For example, only 75 calories per day in a month means more than 2,100 calories.
The benefits of burning calories that should come from good sources such as green tea or black tea contains more than the adverse effects of caffeine.
A study showed that polyphenols found in green tea contains higher calorie burner than can be done caffeine. Besides tea also contains substances that will inhibit the absorption of carbohydrates.
With a series of benefits, would be wise if we chose tea to help increase the burning of calories than other drinks.
