Lose 10 lbs in 6 Weeks ...

Lose in 6 weeks replacing Coffee with GREEN TEA

In late 2004, an episode featuring Dr Nigel Perricone aired on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Mr Perricone has written a number of books including the Perricone Prescription, that relate to diet and health (the main premise of his diet is improving skin condition).
Dr Perricone said some interesting things about green tea, which has inspired some aggressive marketing.

Here is the original transcript from the Oprah show:
Oprah: Now I've read in your book that you said if I just replaced coffee with green tea instead, that I could lose 10 pounds in six weeks.

Dr. Perricone: Absolutely.

Oprah: Now really. How could that -- what is the big deal about this?

Dr Perricone: Coffee has organic acids that raise your blood sugar, raise insulin. Insulin puts a lock on body fat. When you switch over to green tea, you get your caffeine, you're all set, but you will drop your insulin levels and body fat will fall very rapidly. So 10 pounds in six weeks, I will guarantee it.

Oprah: I'm gonna do that. OK. That is so good! Whoo! That is great.


Zylene contains green tea and that is one of the great antioxidents that helps with weight loss and your overall health.

Green Tea:
contains catechins, which are known to possess potent antioxidant activity. They may provide beneficial health effects by protecting the body from the damaging effects of oxidative damage from free radicals. The powerful antioxidant activity is about 25-100 times more potent than vitamins C and E. A number of chronic disease states have been associated with free radical induced oxidative damage, including cancer, heart disease, and suppressed immune function and accelerated aging.
