Question
Hey, I was just wondering about Mega-T Green Tea Dietary Supplement, it says that it helps stimulate metabolism and helps burn fat. I'm not on a specific diet but I'm watching what I eat carefully, and have increased my physical activities a little bit. Do you know if The green tea tablets will help me shed some weight and whether it has any serious side effects? Would you recommend it?

Answer
Hi Aly,

Many overweight people use dietary supplements for weight loss. So far, there is little clinical evidence to support their use. More data from studies is necessary to determine the effectiveness and safety of these supplements.

Because dietary supplements are viewed as food and not drugs, they are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Instead, under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA), dietary supplements can be marketed without proof to support effectiveness and safety. So, buyer beware. The manufacturer does not have to prove that the product is SAFE or is EFFECTIVE. Only when and if a dietary supplement appears to be unsafe after being marketed, the FDA can then decide whether or not to have the product removed from the market.

What I do recommend and know to be effective for weight loss is to eat a healthy diet that has fewer calories than what you need. Diet plus becoming more physically active. Spend your time, money and effort in getting help with your diet and exercise program from someone knowledgable or learning on your own what to do.
