German scientists have confirmed that polyphenols in green tea can reduce fat content in the body, thus preventing obesity Scientists extracted more than 94% of EGCG, a polyphenol compound, from green tea, and fed the mice the same amount of fat but different amounts of EGCG extract Results compared with the control group without EGCG in food, the weight and body fat content of the mice fed EGCG decreased significantly after 29 days This weight loss effect is likely to be achieved not by reducing appetite, but by reducing the absorption of nutrients in the intestine and strengthening fat oxidation.
