Have you heard of protein hormone called leptin? It plays a greater role in appetite control and metabolism. In 1950s when research began on leptin, researchers found that obese mice treated with leptin react by reducing fat and losing weight. Leptin became the subject of more research around 1990s and white adipose tissue in the human body found to contain leptin and it has a direct link with the body fat content. Further research finds that polyphenols known as EGCG (epigallocatechin 3-gallate) contained in green tea is directly associated with leptin levels in the human body. Research conducted by the University of Chicago found that EGCG in green tea resulted in lab mice to lose weight.

The association between leptin and EGCG helps to send signals to the brain controlling appetite. Simple explanation is that leptin helps to create signals that the body has adequate adipose tissue energy stored and to stop eating. This suppression results in the weight loss.
