The study evaluated about 130 obese adults. All consumed a diet that was the same in daily calories and participated in the same amount of moderate exercise. They also drank a beverage each day containing 39 milligrams of caffeine, but one group consumed green tea. Green tea contains catechins, an antioxidant. After 12 weeks, the participants drinking the green tea had greater loss, about 4 pounds compared with about 2 pounds in the other group. The green-tea group also had larger declines in other fats.
