Green Tea
Posted: 06-17-05 20:23pm

In one of those women's magazines you buy in the supermarket, there was a huge artical about green tea and its ability to fight fat. I know there are good effects of drinking tea: heart heath especially. I love tea, it is one of the staples of my college diet. The artical read that by drinking three 8 oz cups of green tea will help you loose weight fast. Does anyone know the benefits/downsides of this type of diet and does it work?

I drink green tea all day long (but not near bedtime, because it can keep you awake) and it works well for energy, for antioxidants, & for keeping my body going. I definitely recommend it & there's no downside. One tip ~ look for organic green tea if you can get it, and be sure to steep it for 3 to 5 minutes to get the full effect.

I have been wondering the same thing as one of my friends told me a story about green tea being very helpfull with someone he knows. I lost about 30 lbs on atkins a few years ago but I would still like to lose about 10-15 more. I have heard that some types of green tea are more effective than others.

I don't know about diet patches, but green tea seems to give me a real pick me up. It's not like some other diet stuff that makes you jittery, but it does seem to work. This site has some more info if you like http://enjoygre entea.Com/greentea_weightloss.Htm

Regarding benefits of green tea.

Hi friends sorry to say but I am a big fan of Oolong tea but i know some of the benefits of regularly drinking green tea.Drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol.

green tea diet
Posted: 04-09-08 23:57pm

I heard that switching from coffee to green tea will make you lose weight. I am an ardent coffee lover and switched as i read that i could lose 10 pounds in 6 weeks. I made the very difficult switch and have not noticed any weight loss. I have spent a small fortune on 80 and 90 dollar a pound green teas and all the gadgets that go with it. I am enjoying the green tea but no weight loss. The only thing i have noticed is that my hair seems to be healthier and has more shine. anyone lost weight on this switch?
