Successful weight loss is the byproduct of following a healthy diet and exercise routine. “It’s all about burning more than you’re consuming,” New York-based nutritionist Regina Fazzini tells SheFinds. “Your diet should consist of low-calorie, nutrient-dense foods and you need to be burning a sufficient amount of calories every day by exercising.”

Experts also say that incorporating an antioxidant-rich drink like green tea into your diet can also help shed pounds quickly, especially when combined with a calorie-burning fitness routine.

If you start the day with an anti-inflammatory hot drink, it can lessen the inflammation and make you feel more comfortable instantly. Grab your favorite mug, put a kettle on the stove, and warm yourself up a nice hot cup of green tea.

"Including a cup of green tea in the morning with your breakfast and not on an empty stomach can possibly help with weight loss,” says Dr. Jennifer Stagg, naturopathic physician.

If having one cup of this delicious tea a day can keep away weight gain, why wouldn’t you? Aside from the positive body effects, it’s incredibly soothing to sip on green tea when your belly feels like a gas-filled balloon.

Experts believe that green tea also has a positive effect on hormones related to fat metabolism, including ghrelin and adiponectin. Ghrelin is the hormone responsible for increasing appetite and adiponectin is involved in regulating glucose levels. This hormone helps break down fatty acids in the body.

“It appears green tea should be consumed during the light phase – the morning – of our 24-hour circadian rhythm because that timeframe greatly impacts fat metabolism,” says Dr. Stagg.
