This study evaluated the effects of green tea beverage on lipids profile; blood factors; bloodpressure and body composition during aerobic exercise of sedentary females.32 females with age range (25-29 years) and body mass index BMI (27.1-30.1kg/m2)randomly-chosen into one control (8)and three experimental groups (n = 24) .The green teagroups subjects received 4.5 gram green tea(equivalent 250 mg catechin )three or four cupsdaily. Train groups performed a 50-60 minutes 3days/week for 6-weeks period aerobic exerciseat 50%-70% of maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) before and after supplementation.Six weeks aerobic training; and concomitant use of green tea significantly reduced bodycomposition (BMI and abdominal fat and round buttocks and waist) and TG and TC and hs-CRP and WBC than did the control group (p<0.05) and the other hand; improvements inVO2max and HDL levels. (p<0.05); but LDL levels did not change significantly.These results suggest that habitual green tea ingestion; in combination with moderate-intenseexercise; was beneficial to improve the body composition and aerobic power and also improvethe lipid profile with reduced amounts of C-reactive protein.
