25 Reasons Why We Should Start Drinking Green Tea

I think Green tea has 1/5th the amount of caffiene as the same amount of coffee..... does that little make much of a difference?

Good info bro

Did anyone consider how much tea is required to burn those 70 calories? You need to be daily prolific drinker to get that kind of benefit. 5-10 cups a day depending on the quality of the tea.

I enjoy Arizona's Diet Green Tea...great taste and no calories!

I love green tea

I need to stock up on some green tea!

good to know...i have always heard only good things about green tea. nice share

Thank you for the post. Well summarised points on the benefits of drinking green tea.

Great info

It's probably worth mentioning that these benefits are there for other types of tea as well. You get these benefits from black, white and green tea as well as rooibos so long as you don't add lemon juice, milk or sugar to it. Adding those will kill most benefits in your tea unfortunately but I've adjusted and dislike milk in tea anyway. Green tea is good though because it's much lower in caffeine than black tea, for example.

Nice read! All types of tea are massively beneficial but green tea does seem to be the best.

Thanks man, great read! I drank green and white tea all summer long. Now I'm on a coffee kick since it's cold now, but have also been supplementing green tea caffeine complex(green, white, and black teas). I've read that pure caffeine is even more effective with fat burning and killing cancer. I think i'll go fix a glass of hot green tea now :D

I already drink green tea everyday,allthough there is a lot of information here i didnt know.
great post bro :)

green tea is very relaxing indeed. kinda like a marijuana light :)

Green tea is definitely the best substitute for coffee. Maybe I'll try it out.

this article would be great if it wasn't stolen from another website.. [url]http://steroidjunkie.com/reasons-to-drink-green-tea/[/url]

Doesnt drinking a lot of tea for a long time cause gaul bladder stones?

And creatine causes kidney failure. Anything we take too much of can yes. But I think it was something like you'd need to take 50 glasses of it a day. Which I very much doubt many people do.

[QUOTE=rammbhat;501704791]4. Green Tea and Weight Loss
Green tea helps with your body weight loss. Green tea burns fat and boosts your metabolism rate naturally. It can help you burn up to 70 calories in just one day. That translates to 7 pounds in one year.

WHAT?? 70 calories a day from drinking green tea? Are you sure? if its 70 cals per day you will burn waaayyy more fat a year than 7 pounds! 3500 cals=1lb![/QUOTE]

erm,

365 days a year, 70 cals a day =

365 x 70 = 25,550

25,550 / 3500 = 7.3

so yes around 7 pounds of fat.

unless you see 0.3 pounds as 'waaayyy more fat'

:)

nice post. gotta get me some green tea

i wondered the same thing. i always buy the naturally decaffeinated green tea. from the research I've done if the decaffeinate correctly the benefits are preserved. I would go with a trusted brand

I'm a big tea drinker! The benefits mentioned in this thread are right on. I was up to about 15 cups a day at one point. I cut that in half now. Lemon Zinger and Green Chai Tea mxed together is everyday for me! Keep up the hard work friends!

I have been drinking green tea my whole life. i do love the taste of the green tea.

[QUOTE] Tried it once a while ago, couldnt stand the taste. Ill give it another try after all what ive read in this
thread[/QUOTE]


I used to be the same, but I live in the land of the rising sun (Japan). I didn't like many things Umeboshi (sour plums), seaweed, Green tea, Oolong tea but once you had then for long enough you will get used to the taste.

I'm taking EGCG does that count lol

7. Green Tea and Bones
The very key to this is high fluoride content found in green tea. It helps keep your bones strong. If you drink green tea every day, this will help you preserve your bone density.


Your article on green tea seems amazing . . . sounds like some kind of super supplement.

I dont know much about green tea and you cant believe everything you read but I do know "fluoride" and I gotta tell you guys . . .

Fluoride causes more human cancer death, and causes it faster than any other chemical . . .

I agree with many posters who don't like the taste. I don't like it either. Sometimes functionality trumps taste when it comes to health.
