Yes, it is true that consuming green tea can help you lose weight. Green tea contains a compound called catechin polyphenol epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) which has been found to have thermogenic properties, meaning it helps to burn fat. Additionally, green tea may increase your metabolism and reduce appetite, making it an effective aid for weight loss.
