Green Tea, are you drinking it everyday?

every single day I have 16 oz or more of pure green tea

The Dr. who wrote the 17 day diet book, says drink a green tea after each meal, it helps your digestion. I have been doing it most days, and I really don't now if it helps or not. I do know that when I decide I can "figure it out on my own" or stray from the diet, I don't loose the weight I loose when I stick to the plan! I think green tea is good a body on many levels though! BUT, it does not take the place of drinking 8-8oz glasses of water per day. Keep on keepin on!

I drink hot green tea each and every morning - I buy the store brand as we are on a extemely tight budget unless I find a coupon for another brand - it is very good for you - try it and you just may like it !

Not sure where everyone is from but Tim Horton's has a really great green tea. It also has lemon grass and lemon balm (can't remember exactly). There is another kind of chinese (I believe) green tea called gunpowder, I find it better than some. It is one that would be foudn in an alternative health food store. If you really don't like the taste of it you could always take green tea supplements.

I drink it everyday. I also have a pitcher in my fridge that I drink with meals. I also different flavors.

Some green teas have additives...I like Stash or Tetley myself...and I DO count it as water, I do consume 8 glasses of pure water, but I also add my 4-6 cups of pure green tea as water too..that is up for debate, you can do what you want as long as you're drinking your 8 cups of water.

I love Tazo Zen green tea. It has lemongrass and spearmint in it. I will also drink Lipton or celestial green tea, herbal teas, or white teas. I haven't heard anything about these green teas not being as healthy as other green teas.

I read an short article in Womens Health that says " Green tea is a primo source of cancer-fighting catechins. But only 20 % of those catechins survive the digestive process. A study found that squeezing lemon juice into your green brew boosts the number you digest up to 13 times. And adding a teaspoon of sugar morphs catechins into a form that's three times easier to absorb. So add your lemon juice and sugar...taste better that way anyway : )

I am drinking it every morning, but if it helps with digestion i will try it throughout the day.

Oh, I forgot about Tazo's Zen green tea! It's one of my favorites!

Sometimes when I get hungry in the evening, I will drink 2-3 cups of Lipton's natural green tea, brewed with about half a lemon. It fills my stomach and I'm not hungry anymore. I don't enjoy it, but I do it because it's good for me. I like green tea with sweetner in it, but I am trying to avoid adding those to my drinks right now.

Thanks guys, I found a green tea that taste fine without sugar, but it doesn't have the ingredients on there, I hear so much about catechin which is found in green teas. I guess I will add that to my food diary, one glass a day.

Try a few different flavors to see what suits you. Also in the summer try it cold. I also enjoy green tea ice cream.

I hope the green tea grows on your taste buds, otherwise it might be a long road. . . My mom was the same way when I started her and now she craves it, almost a junkie. Good luck!

I don't find the taste of green tea particularly appealing so I make it with 1 bag green and 1 bag mint.

I drink green tea everyday....I have found the blueberry green and pomegranate to be my fav but I also like the mandarin orange green tea. water Is the most important obviously but green tea is a natural dietetic.

My Auntie just drank 8 green tea a day and cut down her portion sizes. She lost 80 pounds in one year.
