Feeling Hungry? Try Green Tea, Says Nutritionist

The weight loss journey comes with a lot of difficulties. Whether it is maintaining consistency in your workout schedule, sticking to a strict diet, or ensuring you drink enough water, shedding those extra pounds can be really tough. But are you one of those people on a weight loss journey who experiences unnecessary hunger pangs? Let us be honest – these hunger pangs can sabotage all your efforts toward weight loss.

Worry not! Nutritionist Anjali Mukerjee has the perfect solution for you. In her recent Instagram video, the nutritionist shares a pro tip to control hunger pangs. What is it, you ask? Well, it is as simple as drinking green tea.

Breaking down the science behind it, Anjali Mukerjee explains that Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a compound found in green tea, helps your body produce adiponectin – a hormone that controls unnecessary hunger. It also plays a role in preventing diabetes. So if you want higher levels of adiponectin, drinking green tea rich in EGCG can help you achieve that.

Apart from drinking green tea, the nutritionist also recommends taking isabgol before meals, adding more fibre to your diet and increasing your protein intake as additional ways to control unnecessary hunger.
