Feeling fat, foggy and forgetful? Drink this

Fat, foggy and forgetful…

It’s safe to say that a lot of us live our lives feeling this way.

And, while many people, even doctors, write it off as just a part of aging, that’s not the case.

There are many parts of the world where people live to a ripe old age while still maintaining a fit, strong body and a memory that’s as sharp as a tack.

So, why is it such a problem here in the United States? Why do so many of us carry that spare tire around our middle and suffer from brain fog?

The key could be in our diet.

Unlike a large part of the world, the American diet is chock full of processed foods, sugars and bad fats — all things that have been shown to not only pack on the pounds but also lead to that foggy thinking you’ve been experiencing.

But, scientists have discovered one more clue that could solve the mystery of why some people are able to consume even these unhealthy foods and still live fit, trim and sharp…

Green tea.

The miracle beverage

For years, green tea has been touted by fitness fanatics for its health benefits and it turns out they were on to something…

A new study by researchers in China is demonstrating not just the power of green tea to prevent weight gain and memory loss but to do it despite a poor diet.

The scientists fed two groups of mice a diet packed full of high fructose products and bad fats but only gave one group a compound called EGCG, the most biologically active catechin in green tea.

After 16 weeks on this diet, the mice that were given the EGCG weren’t just thinner than their counterparts, they also had quicker thinking skills and better memory.

The researchers credit the results to the ability of green tea to alleviate insulin resistance — the principal cause of type 2 diabetes.

And they go further to say, “The ancient habit of drinking green tea may be a more acceptable alternative to medicine when it comes to combating obesity, insulin resistance, and memory impairment.”

Choosing and preparing your tea

If you’re ready to harness the power of green tea to keep you slim and trim and preserve your memories, here are a few things to remember.

Tea quality varies and you don’t want to choose one that’s packed with unnecessary ingredients that could interfere with its health benefits. Look for brands that use all-natural ingredients and no preservatives and go for loose-leaf tea instead of bags whenever possible.

Two varieties of green tea that boast the highest amounts of the vital catechin are:

• Matcha: The green tea leaves are ground into a fine powder, which you can whisk into water for tea. Since you consume the actual leaves, you get more antioxidants than from other green teas.
• Hojicha: Made from green tea leaves that are roasted until they’re dark brown. Because it’s picked at the end of the season and roasted at a higher heat than other teas, hojicha contains lower levels of caffeine.

To brew your tea, don’t let the water come to a full boil. Instead, pour the water over the tea right before it boils and then let the tea steep for 3-4 minutes and try to get in three to five cups a day.

And, for those of you who just don’t like the flavor of green tea, there is another option. Green tea extract is easy to find in natural health stores and online and still packs the same punch as the original beverage.

Don’t let the food you eat rob you of your precious memories and leave you overweight and unhappy. Use the tips above and grab a cuppa’ green tea today.
