New Breakthrough In Weight Loss Science

Marsha Stevenson 3 min read

A new study has found that a compound in green tea may help to boost weight loss. The study, which was conducted by researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that the compound — known as epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) — can help to increase the body’s metabolism and promote the breakdown of fat cells. EGCG is a powerful antioxidant that is found in green tea. Previous studies have shown that it can help to protect against heart disease and cancer. “Our study shows for the first time that EGCG enhances thermogenesis – heat production in brown fat cells – which increases energy expenditure and may lead to reduced body fat,” said study author Dr. Shingo Kajimura.

Do you get taller when you lose weight

There is no definitive answer to this question as everyone is different. Some people may experience a slight increase in height when they lose weight, while others may not notice any change. Ultimately, any changes in height that occur as a result of weight loss are likely to be minimal.

Brown fat is a type of fat that is found in small amounts in the human body.

It is different from white fat, which stores energy. Brown fat burns calories to generate heat, and has been shown to be beneficial for health. The new study involved giving EGCG to mice that were bred to be obese. The researchers found that the compound helped to increase the animals’ metabolism and promote the breakdown of fat cells. “This is a very exciting finding,” said study senior author Dr. David Heber. “It suggests that EGCG may have potential as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of obesity.”

The study was published in the journal Nature Medicine.

While the findings are promising, it is important to note that they are preliminary and more research is needed to confirm the effects of EGCG in humans. Green tea is a popular beverage that has many health benefits. It is high in antioxidants and has been linked to a reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. If you are looking to lose weight, adding green tea to your diet may be a helpful strategy. However, it is important to remember that weight loss requires a comprehensive approach that includes a healthy diet and regular exercise.
