Green Tea Extract (EGCG) untuk Obesity
B Bukti Setidaknya satu uji coba acak mendukung hal ini, dengan hasil yang sebagian besar konsisten.Cochrane review of 14 RCTs found EGCG plus caffeine produces modest but statistically significant weight loss of 1.0-1.3 kg over 12 weeks. Twenty-four-hour energy expenditure increased approximately 5% and fat oxidation approximately 16%, with effects more pronounced in Asian populations and habitual low-caffeine consumers.
