That's pretty much what I was thinking but wanted to bounce my concern off you folks as well. Thanks for responding!

Hello folks! I'm brand spanking new to the site and and hoping that you all can give me some advice/suggestions on a concern I have. I am currently in a heavy physical training program and will soon begin a transformation competition. I spent about a year doing nothing and giving myself every excuse NOT to exercise. I've finally come to that reality check where it's time to change. My question though is relating specifically to the Word of Wisdom in it's relation to green tea. Most of the metabolism supplements that have been recommended to me have green tea extract in them. What I have read is that the active ingredients in green tea responsible for the fat-burning effect I'm working towards are catechins, particularly one known as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). I'm wondering though, would taking a supplement with this extract in it be a violation of the Word of Wisdom? Thanks!
