Catechin-rich green tea combined with inulin is an effective weight loss intervention, ranking highest in its network.

Catechin-rich green tea (650mg) combined with inulin may support weight loss, though the evidence is less robust than other interventions. It ranked highest in its network, but the confidence interval includes zero, so the effect is uncertain.
