You'd have to take so many green tea pills to really make an effect on things that it's not even worth it. Trust me, I tried. :/ Not even halfway through the first bottle, I realized what a waste it was and gave up.
Green tea is also good for NBE. I should really drink it more often...
Extra virgin, organic coconut oil will also help you lose weight. Although it has a high fat content, it contains medium-chain triglycerides, rather than long chain triglycerides. This lets the body immediately break it down and convert it into energy, rather than packing it on the body as fat. It also helps the body break down more of the fat that's already there. In one study, they had a bunch of people do nothing to change their diets but add coconut oil, and in one year they lost an average of 36lbs. (It has to be extra virgin organic; refined coconut oil has lost all the benefits it has to offer and is pretty much useless.)
