I heard if you drink green tea, you can eat as much as you want and still lose weight. I also heard it cures male pattern baldness.

All funnin' aside, green tea does offer health benefits, but it's not an elixir either. Suggesting it can serve as a weight-loss aid is irresponsible.

I've been drinking green tea every day for probably 15 years. It doesn't cause weight loss.

I did not witness any weight loss via green tea either. I tried red tea instead and noticed weight loss. The weight loss will come via the detoxing of your body. You can do this quick online detox quiz and see if that's your issue. [url]https://bit.ly/2sAceo1[/url]

LOL I agree with you about green tea, though I do like most jasmine teas (not all jasmine teas are made from green teas). Green teas tend to upset my stomach and I SURE can't drink them on an empty stomach.

I LOVE Constant Comment tea by Bigelow. And it's cheap!

Teas are a part of my diet (not diet PLAN - just the way I eat) but it's mainly because I like sipping on a cup of tea in the evenings. It feels like a special little ritual to me.

Tea will only help anyone lose weight if it replaces something fattening that they may have been eating or drinking. For instance, a cup of tea has fewer calories than a glass of wine or a soda.

I drink anbout 1.5 liters of Green Tea, double bagging (for more caffeine) .75 liters per time.

I use Ahmad brand.

Remember Green Tea has many proven health benefits and anti-oxidants.

Weight loss?

If everything else done is proper, IMO.

I would go with an organic matcha green tea. Matcha green tea is supposed to be more beneficial then steeped green tea. Something to do with the way its processed. Brand of choice: Jade Leaf - Organic Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder
