Q: I keep seeing TikToks calling green tea \u201cnature\u2019s Ozempic.\u201d Is there any truth to that?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Green tea has been bandied about as a diet hack for centuries: In ancient China<\/a> 2,000 years ago, people touted the beverage as a weight loss tool. In modern times, the drink has been a staple of diet books and meal plans.<\/p>\n

Now, green tea has followed the inevitable trajectory of any weight loss trick: It\u2019s getting big on TikTok. Viral videos claim the drink aids with shedding pounds, going so far as to call it \u201cnature\u2019s Ozempic.\u201d Some posts suggest drinking as many as five cups a day.<\/p>\n

While there is some research into green tea and weight, the evidence on whether a mug (or several) can melt away pounds is unclear, said Dr. Jyotsna Ghosh, an obesity medicine doctor at Johns Hopkins University.<\/p>\n
