We investigated the potential of peach blossom flower extract (PPF) in aiding weight loss using obese mice as a model. Mice were split into groups and fed varying diets, including high-fat diets with PPF.
After eight weeks, those receiving PPF showed notable reductions in body weight and fat mass, along with improved levels of glucose and liver enzymes compared to those on a high-fat diet alone.
The extract appeared to alter gene expression related to fat metabolism, suggesting PPF may help combat obesity by enhancing how the body handles lipids.

We examined the effects of high-dose green tea extract on weight loss among women with central obesity in a careful double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
Over 12 weeks, participants taking 856.8 mg of green tea extract experienced noticeable weight loss, reduced waist sizes, and improved cholesterol levels without any adverse effects.
This suggests that green tea extract may work by regulating appetite-related hormones, potentially making it a helpful ally in weight management.

We investigated how decaffeinated green tea (GT) and black tea (BT) polyphenols affect weight management in mice on a high-fat diet. Mice receiving these polyphenols showed significant weight loss and changes in gut bacteria after four weeks.
This suggests that the beneficial effects of these teas may be linked to shifts in microbiota and increased activation of specific metabolic pathways. Notably, both teas promoted factors that could support fat metabolism, indicating their potential role in weight control.

Promotes weight loss

I purchased this green tea extract after reading about its role in boosting metabolism and promoting weight loss. The recommended dosage is about 300 mg daily. I initially took one capsule at breakfast and another at lunch. However, moderation is crucial as high doses can damage the liver. I managed to lose 10 hard-to-shift pounds and wish I’d discovered green tea extract sooner!

I initially took EGCG for weight loss per my doctor's instructions. After 1.5 months, I realised I could eat normally and still lose weight, which is a miracle! I’ve noticed my jeans fit better, and while I lost some water weight, daily exercise was also a factor. This green tea extract offers a more affordable solution, and I’m hopeful for continued results.

We tested a new green tea extract, MonCam, to see if it could help with weight loss alongside a low-calorie diet. In our study of 100 obese participants, half took the extract while the other half followed just the diet.
After 90 days, those using MonCam lost an impressive 14 kg compared to 5 kg in the diet-only group, with noticeable improvements in their body mass index.
Additionally, both groups saw better cholesterol and hormone levels. With no side effects reported, it seems MonCam could be a reliable addition for weight loss journeys.

We explored how dietary supplements including green tea, capsaicin, and ginger extracts affect weight loss among overweight women. In an 8-week randomized double-blind study, 50 women received either the supplements or a placebo.
The results showed that those taking the supplements lost an average of 1.8 kg compared to a slight increase in the placebo group. They also experienced improvements in body mass index and insulin metabolism markers. Overall, the combination of these extracts appears to offer some beneficial effects for weight loss and metabolic health.

Helpful for weight loss
Excellent! I started taking this for weight loss. Green tea extract contains catechins, which are known for fat burning properties. While I haven’t seen miraculous results in two weeks, I’ve noticed a reduction in appetite, increased cheerfulness, and better hydration without swelling. Overall, I’m satisfied and will continue using it.

Mild weight loss

Green Tea Extract is as effective as EGCG. It's a mild booster for weight loss, but clinical trials indicate it can reduce abdominal fat. However, dietary restrictions and exercise are essential! I recommend purchasing 250 tablets as they're more cost-effective. While EGCG excels in weight loss, both supplements can yield benefits, especially if you're not regularly drinking green tea. Remember, results can be mild, so consistency is key. When buying, opt for trusted brands to avoid heavy metals. iHerb's Now and Thorne come highly recommended.
