    If there were a tea that would make me lose weight, then you can bet your *kitten* I would be chugging it down, but alas there is no such miracle out there...

    Right?

    If green tea works so well, then why are there still overweight individuals in the world? Green tea isn't expensive.

    Oh, and since I drink a lot of green tea, why hasn't this 50lbs melted off me? Silly me doing CICO.

    Because grees tea by itself is not enough you need to fix your diet and schedule your routine and food correctly .

    Oh, thank you SO much for telling me how to lose weight. It's not like I don't know how or anything, after losing 90lbs. Stupid me!

    But still, it's not the eating better or working out, it's the green tea. Duh.

    I love when people give serious answers to sarcastic questions.

    It's okay. Sarcasm gets lost on the interwebs. It is far more entertaining that way. ;)

    Even better it has antioxidants

    Eating and drinking antioxidants actually reduces the amount of antioxidants the body has in it over the following hours. The body makes all the antioxidants it needs and doesn't need any more, flooding it reduces the rate of production.

    So if you're concerned with the amount of antioxidants you have, after asking yourself why you want them and realising you've been sucked in by this and last year's fad, read the science and stop trying to get them from tea and certain highly expensive foods labeled as super by manufacturers.

    This thread is great! I've learned that googling something and reading random websites counts as peer reviewed research.

    Green tea is NOT for weightloss. It's flavored water with a tiny amount of micronutrients.

    I wish I'd known this when I was in grad school. Would have been a lot easier.
