The worldwide prevalence of obesity has doubled since 1980 to an extent that nearly a third of the world’s population is now classified as overweight or obese. On the other hand, sports scientists have suggested exercise for the prevention of further spread of this disease. In addition to exercise, the use of natural fat-burning supplements, such as green tea, has attracted a lot of attention during the recent years. However, the results of some domestic and foreign research have shown that fat-burning potential of white tea is the same or superior to that of green tea. Therefore, it is suggested that researchers compare green and white tea in terms of their effects on obesity-related indicators. M3 10.32592/JBirjandUnivMedSci.2020.27.4.109 ER -
