There are many foods and drinks that are healthy for you and green tea is no exception.

Studies in the past have reported that is can help regulate blood glucose levels and now preliminary studies show that green tea may also help keep off those unwanted pounds. However, so far the testing has only involved mice.

The study conducted at the University of Connecticut showed the following:

- Less weight and fat gain. Among mice with an obesity gene, those that ate chow laced with green tea extract gained less weight and less fat.

- Less fat in the liver. There was less sign of “fatty liver” disease in the mice with the obesity gene that ate chow laced with green tea extract.

- Lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in mice with the obesity gene that ate the chow laced with green tea extract, compared to other mice with the same obesity gene
