I have to laugh at the idea that drinking flavoured hot water is going to make a person lose weight..


The simple science is this.........increase physical exertion, and reduce caloric intake. Burn more calories than you consume, each day, and loose weight.


One has only to look at people who have been on a restricted diet, for whatever reason.....they loose weight.

Maybe not quite on par, but it's along the lines of "this little white pill is going to make my headache go away? #Lolz #Witchery"

I have to advise you to be careful with green tea if you have any sort of thyroid issue..even if you don't have a thyroid issue, Green tea contains fluoride which can block thyroid hormone, and thyroid hormone controls metabolism. Low thyroid causes slow metabolism.

Green tea is not a weight loss product. Its tea. Your weight loss will come from you eating right and working out. Now that that is out of the way, if you want to drink tea instead of crappy soda or something unhealthily similar, that is fine, but dont put in regular store bought honey.

My favorite green teas:

1. Natural mix I get from my chinese herbalist. If there is one in your area, I suggest asking them for their recommendation.

2. Mighty Leaf Organic Green Dragon tea.

3. Medium Long Jing tea. Expensive but its probably the best stuff out there.

Default Green Coffee.

Hey there!
I have a weird one for you!
how about Green coffee?

I was in the market for something natural that will help my digestion run smoother and my gym trainer offered me Green coffee extract.
check it out, because if your goal is to naturally boost your digestion and metabolism, it's an option i think you should consider. I obviously can only talk from my personal experience when i say this, but it helped me, hopefully it will for you as well.

No, green tea and/or green coffee isn't going to cause you to lose weight.


If you need to lose weight, you need to modify your caloric intake. Tea, shakes, pills, potions and powders are just gimmicks and will only cause you to lose money, not weight.

Chai is another word for tea in many parts of the world. Question - what is Chai Tea? Is it tea
with spices or this?

Green tea is very much good for our health. The brand I use is Lipton and I love ginger, lemon and mint flavor. I didn't like the taste of green tea at first so I add a little honey to make it sweet.
