May Help Boost Metabolism

Anything that would speed up your metabolism will certainly be taken into consideration if you're trying to lose a few more pounds. Kombucha is not a magical beverage for losing weight. However, the epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) present in some varieties of kombucha and green tea may hold the key to a little quicker metabolism.

Catechin, or substance present in green tea, is EGCG. Catechins may increase adult metabolic rates, according to a review that appeared in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry in May 2017. The authors of the review indicate that more research is necessary to fully understand the effects of EGCG on metabolism because the already available studies on the subject are brief and insignificant.
