    Any tea is good for loosing weight as long as you don't put sugar or anything else in it since it is a water base. However, Green tea may be full of anti-oxidants which are good for your body i do not believe it is one of the high weightloss teas. I know that people have recommended Wuyi Oolong tea to me to loose weight but i am not fond of oolong tea. Some that you might look into trying are:

    Blueberry Rooibos-african red tea
    Pomegranate Green tea- green tea
    Chamomile- Herbal
    Lemon grass- herbal
    Ceylon breakfast tea- Black tea
    Apple pie chai- indian spiced tea
    Rooibos- african red
    Pu-erh-
    peach white- white tea

    The ones i have listed are just a few of my personal favorites. I am an avid tea drinker and can probably help you find something you may like.
    A site you can find information about tea on is Tevana. They have some really good teas.

    There is no scientific proof that any kind of tea "boosts metabolism". Green tea is know for its antioxidants. It is good for you in many ways. As far as losing weight, tea is a diuretic so that should lose some water weight. It is tasty and helps get water down so give it a try.

    Many good companies (I don't recommend the supermarket teas as they are not fresh and bagged tea is not as good as loose leaf). A few good online -- Republic of Tea, Stash and Market Spice (BTW -- Market Spice has a cinnamon orange that is incredible).
