How Green Tea Supports Hydration and Metabolism

Green Tea: More Than a Morning Ritual

Green tea is one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world—and for good reason. Rich in antioxidants and functional nutrients, it supports everything from brain clarity to fat metabolism. And yes, it can be a powerful hydration ally, too.

The Science Behind Green Tea and Metabolism

Green tea contains catechins, especially EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), which help stimulate thermogenesis—the body’s process of burning calories to produce heat. In fact, research from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that green tea extract can increase fat oxidation during moderate-intensity exercise [Venables et al., 2008]

Green Tea and Hydration—Isn’t Caffeine Dehydrating?

While green tea does contain some caffeine, its overall hydration impact is positive when consumed in normal amounts. The fluid content of the tea more than offsets any mild diuretic effect. Plus, green tea provides L-theanine, an amino acid that supports calm focus—making it ideal for sustained energy without jitters. (Mayo Clinic, 2005)
