Green Tea & Metabolism
Green Tea Leaf Extract is one of the better-studied ingredients in AlkaLine Burn's formula. Here's what the research actually shows.
What's In Green Tea Extract
Green tea contains catechins, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), along with a modest amount of naturally occurring caffeine.
What The Research Shows
Multiple studies link green tea catechins, especially combined with caffeine, to modestly increased calorie burning (thermogenesis) and fat oxidation, particularly during exercise.
How Modest Is "Modest"?
Research-backed effects are generally small on their own — think a fractional increase in daily energy expenditure, not a dramatic metabolic overhaul. Green tea extract works best as one part of a broader routine, not a standalone solution.
An Honest Caveat
AlkaLine Burn's own materials do not state a specific milligram amount for Green Tea Leaf Extract, which limits direct comparison to the doses used in supporting research.
Where This Leaves You
Green Tea Extract is a reasonable, evidence-informed ingredient to have in a weight-management formula — just not a substitute for diet and activity changes.
