How does green tea make you lose weight and how should I take it?

25.November, 2008

I don't really like the tea, so if I'm short on time could I just swallow some of the leaves (gross, but worth it)? How much do you need? Does it actually work and what does it do?

Thank you and please be specific to the questions.

No you cant eat the leaves and yes you can lose weight drinking green tea. 6 cups a day is a good amount, which is good for burning approximately 80 calories.

I would drink evenly through the day. A good rule of thumb is to substitute your coffee or AM drink, your soda at lunch and your dinner drink with an 8 ounce glass of DIET or unsweetened green tea. I prefer arizona.

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.

    Supposedly the caffeine and other anti-oxidants and components of green tea help boost your metabolism, to burn fat at a faster rate, even when sedentary.

    I don't know that it actually helps with weightloss enough to make it worth force feeding yourself.

    I think there are some over-the-counter pills that contain green tea. I personally love green tea so I drink it as tea, and as Iced Green Tea Lattes from Starbucks

    Green tea is good because it is rich in antioxidants (which fight off free radicals in our body). You should use th recommeded amount on the box.

    Also, if you're trying to lose weight, drink a lot of water. Water speeds up your metabolism which is the rate at which you break food down. Faster metabolism=more weight loss. Also, drinking a lot of water fills you up so you are less likely to overeat.

    The metabolism boosting power of green tea is so minimal that you almost can't measure it. It's all over-hyped by companies trying to sell their products. If you don't like tea don't drink it.

    You'll get the same results if you stay hydrated with plain pure water.
