    I like green tea, it has some anti oxidant factors but it won't make you lose weight. That happens with diet and exercise.

    I don't know about increasing weight loss but I LOVE green tea.. I have every night with a little honey. It's warm and helps me not snack on pop/chips/ice cream etc.

    I have a mint green tea that is my favorite :)

    Thanks for your answers, I have just recently started to drink it again. I for some reason always feel that it boosts weight loss but maybe that's just the toxins that I am losing.

    Green tea helps shrink fat cells so I guess yes it does help but if you load it up with sugar and milk or cream it's not excatly good for you. Just goggle green tea health benefits and read away.

    Green Tea is absolutely amazing is contains
    Powerful Antioxidants ...
    Eliminates Cravings

    I suggest drinking it in the Tea form Natural Green Tea is the best way to get the benefits not in a pill form

    I like green tea, but should drink it more often. What is everyone's favorite brand of green tea?

    I haven't noticed it doing anything for weight loss - I think you'd have to consume massive amounts for that, but I love to drink it anyway. I like white tea and peppermint tea as well. It's a good way to get your water in if you have a distaste for plain water. I brew some and dilute it with cool water and drink it all day. :drinker:

    I found Salada Tropical Iced Tea. It is so great. But, if I drink it much past noon, I find it hard to sleep at night. It's my new go to morning drink.

    i LOVE green tea but I love caffiene and coffee too, I find that green tea helps you get off of coffee (or take a break) and it also helps lose water weight only (it acts as a diuretic) so if you need to drop water weight its awesome but it doesnt burn anything but that. It also acts as a appetite suppressant but most caffiene products do*
