Green tea and products associated with it are all the rage these days. Famous dermatologist and anti-aging expert Dr. Perricone talked about the virtues of drinking green tea on Oprah. Greentea300® enters a market inundated by tablet based products with a slightly different approach. It is a 2-step product which includes an Instant Beverage and a diet Patch.

Green tea is said to be the better and healthier alternative to coffee and to that we heartily agree. Because of their caffeine content, both beverages have thermogenic properties. Greentea300® Instant Beverage contains basic ingredients plus fillers and flavors. The Patch that comes with it has Noni and Bladderwrack.

People who have the tendency to overeat know that it is very easy to continue adding on weight. Most of us are aware that there really is no magic pill that results in instant weight loss. Eating right and exercising are necessary to achieve it. People taking Greentea300® are advised to stop drinking coffee and caffeine based beverages.

List of Ingredients

• Noni (is used cultures as a treatment to skin infections)
• Bladderwrack (is used to treat goiter)
• Prune juice (a natural diuretic)
• Green tea extract (contains caffeine, a stimulant which when consumed excessively, causes restlessness and/or insomnia)
• Citric Acid

Positives

• Contains no ephedra
• Contains natural ingredients
• Dieters have reported losing weight; product has a few testimonials

Negatives

• Diet patches were taken out of the market by the FDA in the early 1900’s due to their ineffectiveness as a diet aid however, they appear to be making a come back
• Weight management approach involves using a two step method
• Patch has to be adhered to the skin
• Price is higher than other similar products available in the market
• Not enough studies to support the claim that green tea extracts promote weight loss

Many people who have tried products of this kind reported that it left them constantly feeling hungry. Drinks and Patches are artificial dieting methods that unfortunately do not take into consideration how dieters can start eat righting right once they have achieved weight loss. Furthermore, the scarcity of studies on the effectiveness of Patches puts the credibility of the product into question. Before purchasing and using any supplement, always seek the advice of your health care provider.
