White Tea Fights Obesity, Scientists Say
(May 1) - White tea has special qualities that could help fight obesity, German scientists announced Thursday.
The researchers studied the biological effects of an extract of white tea and found compounds that appear to impede the growth of new fat cells as well as target existing stores.
"We've shown that white tea may be an ideal natural source of slimming substances," said Marc Winnefeld, who led the team of researchers.
White tea is made from the buds and first leaves of the tea plant. Like green tea, it undergoes very little processing and no fermentation.
Aside from the weight reduction properties of this tea, it is also good. I drink a variety of white tea mixed with other fruits and berries. Might want to give it a try along with your green tea etc.
