    green tea has been shown to be beneficial towards weight loss, studies have shown that weight loss was greater then was to be expected from the caffeine content alone, researchers suspect it is the catechin EGCg

    I used to take a green tea fat burning pill.. all it gave me was headaches and the constant feeling I was putting something unhealthy into my body. I drink hot zen green tea instead.

    I know this is an old post, but I am fairly new to coming on here and was looking at past topics.

    I bought the Green Tea Fat Burner pills by accident. I meant to buy the Green Coffee Bean pills that Dr. Oz talked about. When I got home I realized I bought the green tea pills. I decided for $9.99 a bottle, why not give them a shot. Personally I don't think they burn fat, because my opinion is only way for that to happen is by exercising and watching your calorie intake. But I was looking for something to give me that extra boost to get into the mood of exercising. Ha! To me they work great because they do exactly that. I take them and I'm ready to exercise or do something. I read a lot of reviews on this pills, and a big percentage of people love them for the energy and a small percentage says they give them headaches, etc. Probably something in the pill that doesn't work for them. Anyway, I love the energy boost they give me so I recommend them for that. Not the fat burning part, I think that comes from the actual exercise you do because it gives you the energy to get that done. Don't know if you ever tried them or not, but to me they work great!

    Never tried the pills but I drink at least one cup of green tea most days. I didn't see any increase in weight or fat loss when I started drinking it, though. But I had already been drinking plenty of black tea.
