Very Green Tea

I am trying to lose some tummy weight.
my sister told me how our cousin drank green tea and lost weight in a couple months.
is it true it helps you lose weight?
and i hear it makes you go number two alot??
thankss

Well…
It does speed up your metabolism slightly. If you drink 8 cups a day, you can lose around 80 calories. Lots of people don't think that's true though.

But come one, if you want to lose weight, you can't just drink green tea. Eat healthier, and exercise.

If i drink only green tea and water every day and eat very little food like only fruits and veggies, and a little rice and not exercise at all can i lose 25 pounds fast?? In like 3 months?

Definitely. Tea won't make much of a difference, but if you exercise a lot, and eat little, then you can healthily lose 2 lbs a week.

I find green tea increase energy expenditure to lose weight. I find it here http://www.teabenefits5.com/does-green-tea-help-you-lose-weight.html
Is it right?

Green tea increases your metabolism, therefore helping your body to burn calories and fat.

Also, it does contain caffeine (but a healthier caffeine than coffee or cola) which will give your more energy, so you may feel inclined to exercise

Green Tea can be drunk hot or cold, it has the same health benefits either way. But if it's cold you may find it to be a bit bitter, so add a artificial sweetener.

Aside from weight loss, Green Tea is also full of anti-oxidants so is great for your insides, and also helps fight cancer.

I wonder if anyone has tried drinking green tea in order to lose weight? Answer this question only if you did tried this. In what period of time have you put weight off? How much pounds?
p.s. How many cups did you have per day?
Thank you in advance

Yes, I have. But in combination with regular exercise and healthy and balanced diet. The result was and still is very good :-). But there are more types of tea that are supposed to help you in weight loss, e.g. white tea and rooibos. Maybe you can also try these. White tea is of very gentle taste. Rooibos is quite full in aroma and tastes delicious.

lipton, or any kind of other green tea.
and give me good food tips to help me lose wieght a little faster?

Better find original Chinese Green tea, not Lipton. Green tea is very good for the digestion. Many diets include Green tea (like Colored diet).

If it does for how long should one drink it to see the results and how frequently?

yes it is - Green Tea contains "catechins" plant compounds that prolong the life of nor-epinephrine a neurotransmitter that stimulates calorie and fat burn. To get the effect (can help you burn as much as 40% more calories daily) drink 4 cups a day.

I get green tea extract at the health food store - it's not that expensive and then I know exactly how much is in each cup.

Good luck!

You can find this information on the Mayo Clinic website - I don't have time to find it this second sorry… but that is where I verified the information.

if so, do u drink before or after a meal?
Does chai tea help you lose weight too?

Yes you can lose weight drinking decaf green tea. 6 cups a day is a good amount. I would stick to green tea over chai tea. It should not be the only thing you do for losing weight. There are several types of green tea, primarily Sencha and Gyokuro. The difference between the two lies in the way they are grown. Sencha is a higher grade tea grown in full sun; Gyokuro is grown in full shade. This article was very useful to me when deciding to use green tea as part of my diet. I hope you find it useful as well.

I been using it for a while and i was i 163 but then i stopped.Now that i stopped im like 170.I think it makes you lose weight and my dad bought some for me like 2 bottles so yeah..I was just wondering if anyone else had results with the green tea extract liquid drops for weight loss.

All green tea supposedly helps you lose weight. but it didn't work for me. However, its still good for you (antioxidants).

I drink a can (or 2) of japanese green tea every day (not sweetened or anything). Does it help you lose weight? A lot of my friends say I am looking skinnier, but I havent seen any scale results…???

to see an increase in the metabolic rate from green tea you need to consume at least 3 cups daily. this would cause an increase of the metabolic rate by 2-3%. green tea would only be part of a low calorie diet where fat loss is the main goal.

The UK Council recommend drinking not more than 6 cups of tea a day, primarily to prevent the side effects of green tea.

Drinking too much is harmful, not just because of the caffeine, but also because green tea contains minerals that can be toxic when consumed in large quantity.

One of my customers lose 25 pounds in 6 months drinking not more than 6 cups a day, you can read what works for her in the article below.

Hope it works for you!
