People are subjective and perceive things differently based on there own experiences.
Please stop wasting your time .
Tomorrow morning I will still wake up take my green tea extracts and drink my yummy green tea regardless of what you claim.

Some people just love arguing about everything. Their only goal in repeatedly asking you questions instead of just using Bing themselves is to make you look stupid, not to correct any misinformation or have any kind of conversation - if that were the case they'd just discuss what they know instead of trying to force you into answering their questions while they sit coiled up waiting to strike. They get off trying to make you look and feel stupid. They aren't wasting their time if they get a rise out of you. Don't let them.
We are not all the same. What works for one person might not work for another. As I said earlier: whatever works, do it! I'll be taking my green tea extract as well.
People like to say this when their bias isn't supported. The problem: bogus supplements don't work for anyone. Like, literally not a single person.9 -

I agree that bogus supplements don't work for anyone. I disagree that Green Tea Extract is a bogus supplement.0 -

No, it's called the "burden of proof". When the overwhelming majority of the scientific community know the facts say it does nothing for fat loss, the burden of proof lies on the person making the wild claim. That's just the way it works.
If someone comes in and says the earth is flat, do you really think the majority need to point out why it is not? Yes, this debate is on the same level of silliness.
And some people get off on the debate instead of just posting their opinion and moving on.
You are free to believe anything you like. However, if you try to convince others then you have to provide proof. On a site like this one where the majority of folks are here to learn about health and weight loss, any bro science that is not challenged will look to the first timer like it is a fact. Then they end up wasting their time and money on nonsense.

But that is all that it is Your OPINION.
This is my own true personal results.
I shared because I have done an extensive amount of research on the topic. And would like to be of help to any one else that like myself, is a herbal tea enthusiast.
The green tea plant is a Gem. That many people do not embrace
The green tea extract pills are pure with no other ingredients. Which is equivalent to 3 cups.
So ultimately I have been digesting 6-7 cups. If you don't believe in the power of green tea, well then it's your own misfortune.
We are all on the same journey here, to be the best versions of ourselves. I don't appreciate your rude/ sarcastic demeanour .
Have a lovely day.
Nah, it's not their "opinion", it's what science states.
Hasn't green the extract been linked to liver failure?6 -

Not a troll, but rather someone who was perhaps wanting to hear their own opinion in a different voice.9 -

None of this changes the fact that it does not do anything significant. Except thin out your bank account...5 -

Instead of attacking or being rude and demanding that your questions be answered when one (thinks one) knows the answers already, one could reply with "Here's a list of sources you could reference that will show you that this supplement does not do what you claim or believe it does." It's all the in the approach and if you're in threads like this a lot where you always think the other person is the problem (that's what they get for asking the question), you might want to check a mirror. A better tact might actually teach people instead of alienating them. That's why I claim that some people just love to cause trouble - they get off on it.
It's not that I don't believe science, it's just in this area I take it with a grain of salt. Because salt is good for you right? Or is it bad this week. Coffee is good... or is it bad. We all know eggs are bad.... but not the whites. The yolks are good for you this week but they won't be next week. Margarine is better than butter, right? You want to talk about "facts" - in science those facts seem to change pretty often because nobody has a grasp of all it yet in nutrition and weight loss. Some think they do but they don't. There are studies all over the place that contradict each other. The ones I read were pro-green tea. And it was one of the few, if not only things that was better in pill form than drinking (as I posted earlier). So I really don't care what "facts" any of the "bros" here post. I intend to keep using it. I actually feel positive effects from it. You say it's all in my mind? If it is, it's still worth the pennies I spend on it every day. I make good money, I can afford it.
