Very Green Tea

I've been reading about the health benefits of green tea and I'm trying to consume more of it.

Please share your favorite green tea recipes. If your just going to tell me add lemon or honey, please don’t bother posting. I’m searching for something more creative.

I also have some matcha/green tea powder that I’m not quite sure what to do with.

Try adding lime instead of lemon. Or here are some more ideas:

Green tea pound cake

INGREDIENTS
* 2 large eggs
* 1 cup flour
* 2/3 cup sugar
* 1/2 cup butter
* 1 tbsp maccha
* 1/2 tsp baking powder

DIRECTIONS:
Cream butter in a bowl. Add sugar in the butter and mix well. Gradually add beaten eggs and stir well. Sift flour, baking powder, and green tea powder together and add the flour to the egg mixture. Pour the batter into a buttered loaf pan. Bake in preheated 340 degrees F oven for about 30-40 minutes.

Green tea latte

INGREDIENTS
* 1 cup soy milk (real milk interferes with the polyphenols, blocking the health benefits so real milk should not be drunk together with green tea)
* 1 cup water
* 1 tablespoon maccha
* 2 tablespoons white sugar

DIRECTIONS
1. In a small saucepan, combine the soy milk, water, green tea powder and sugar. Warm over medium heat while whisking until hot and foamy. Pour into mugs and enjoy.

Green tea zest

INGREDIENTS
* 1 fresh pineapple - peeled, cored and cut into chunks
* 2 large green apples, washed and sliced
* 1 1/4 teaspoons chopped fresh ginger
* 1 cup brewed green tea, chilled
* 1 cup mango sorbet or crushed ice

DIRECTIONS
1. Juice the pineapple, apples, and ginger in a juice machine. Mix the juice with the tea, and stir in the mango sorbet.

There is no hard and fast rule as to whether white tea is better than green tea.

There are many different grades of white and green tea. It all depends on the quality of tea.

A high quality green tea will be better than low quality white tea and vice versa.

I sugggest you read the article below which compare white tea versus green tea.

I hope this helps.

I drink this almost every day. What does this help you with? Skin? Heart? Hair? Nails? Also, What are the downsides of drinking this? Should I continue drinking it everyday?

I don't know but it sure is good, I drink the diet all the time

Green tea extract from The Vitamine Shoppe since it has green tea extract which is a free radical and some caffeine which helps me burn some of my excess fat.

It helps burn fat since I have upped my cardio and follow a good diet.

Anything that is green tea extract is the same, you just pay more for some labels. If the same brand is more, it is probably a higher dosage.

Okay, so i have never taken any Dietary Supplements. Im a heavier set women and I had my son 18 months ago. I am ready to lose this weight and get healthy. I want to beable to go and buy cute clothes… I want my breasts to get smaller… So Im wondering is this a good choice in supplement? Its the Dexatrim Max with real Green Tea and Oolong Tea.
If anyone does take a dietary supplement, What has worked for you? I know there are soooo many out there… What are the pros and cons of them? Will taking Dexatrim affect me worse?

Dexatrim is garbage, don't waste your money.

There is no magic weight-loss pill, supplement, fad diet, or juice. The ONLY way to lose weight is to consume less calories than you burn. Brad Pitt didn’t get buff for Fight Club by drinking green tea and you won’t either.

The only way to lose weight is to consume less calories than you burn.

To lose weight, experts agree you need to exercise for at least 30 minutes at 60%-70% of your Max Heart Rate (MHR). A simple way to calculate MHR is 220 minus your age. So if you’re 45 years old, for example, your MHR would be 220-45=175. 60% of 175 is 105, and 70% of 175 is 122.5. So you should exercise daily for 30 minutes at a heart rate between 105 and 123.

You don’t need additional equipment—infomercial products like the Ab Lounger, Sauna Belt, etc. are all worthless gimmicks so don’t waste your money.

Eat breakfast, and eat five small meals per day instead of three big meals. If you don't wake up ravenous, then you ate too much the day before. Stop eating at least two hours before you go to bed. Cut back on the foods you eat with high fat and high sugar content. Eat only single servings (read the label) with less than 3 grams trans fat and 3 grams sugars. Become familiar with websites like http://chubbyloser.com that contain good information on what to eat, including supplements.

Don't consume alcohol—alcohol is nothing more than empty calories with no nutritional value. Some people will argue that alcohol has some health benefits when consumed in moderation—I’m not debating that—but we’re talking about weight loss here. Lay off the booze if you want to lose the belly.

Drink lots of water, then drink more. Not tea, not Gatorade, not milk. Water. If your urine isn’t almost clear, you need to drink more water.

Woof.

Does anyone know if they actually work or if they’re just a scam?? I got some and am going to try them….but, does anyone know if they work??

~Thanks for lookin~

Be careful with diet pills–I’ve had some bad experiences trying some of them. What I did find to work really well though was a natural supplement of Acai berry which I actually saw on Oprah. It was a while ago, but I ordered a free sample from http://ultraacaiberry.com/y/ and it’s been great for helping increase my energy, metabolism, and keeping my body healthy! I’ve lost weight and I feel much, much better than I did when I was on the pills.
