The potential of green tea to reduce extra weight has been harnessed in the form of various diet pills. This formulation of green tea is claimed to be the most effective and is claimed as the number 1 selling product in the market. The product may however be overpriced.

The Green Tea Extreme Company claims their product to be number 1 in its market segment. The segment is that of weight loss products. As people pack on those extra kilos, the weight loss market is buzzes with activity at a pace never seen in the market.

It seems that Dr Perricone and Oprah sort of endorse the product. In one of the Oprah shows Dr Perricone tells Oprah that she can loose up to 10 pound of weight in a span of 6 week if she starts drinking Green Tea instead of coffee. Dr Perricone claims to be an expert in diet, nutrients and skin related issues.

Well, to prove it, we have tested one of the most expensive green tea based products. It's Green Tea Extreme. Is Green Tea Extreme in any way different from any other green tea available in the market? Let us see what else is there in the formulation besides green tea. In addition to green tea, it contains

Citrus Aurantium
Guarana

Citrus Aurantium is the standardized form of synephrine. Synephrine is chemically close to ephedra. One study on synepherine suggests that it has abilities that help in the reduction of fat. This study is not conclusive and suggests the further need of a detailed study to find out the weight reducing qualities of the chemical.

Guarana is the third main constituent of Green Tea Extreme. Guarana is made up of about 10 percent caffeine. This ingredient also has antioxidant and diuretic properties. It seems that the high caffeine content of this constituent combined with the green tea provides the necessary weight reducing qualities. The effectiveness of this combination in the reduction of weight has been proved in medical studies.

Green tea is of course the main constituent of the Green Tea Extreme formula. The fat burning capabilities of green tea is a proven fact. Research on the main components of the green tea i.e. polyphenol and catechins suggest that they play positive role in the weight loss. However, green tea might not help you too much. Claims by the retailer that consumers can loose 25 pounds within25 days are of course baseless.

The exact composition of the Green tea extreme is not specified. There are other green tea products available in the market that contain much higher and more specific doses of green tea and what’s more, they are also priced much cheaper. So we can't give too much advice until we test those products by ourselves.
