Coffee: 10 Benefits of Coffee
Coffee Benefit #2: Fat Burning
Caffeine has shown to boost metabolism and enhance fat burning, however it is not uncommon for caffeine tolerance to develop. Many fat burning supplements contain trace amounts of caffeine in them. This is not particularly necessary, as a cup of coffee or green tea contains enough caffeine to boost your metabolism while providing benefits of antioxidants.
Several studies suggest that the metabolic rate can increase as much as 3-11% after consuming caffeine. However, in long-term drinkers, it is possible for the metabolism boosting effects to diminish.
