Hello,
I really love green tea and its benefits for nice skin and better metabolism, but I think that I've been drinking it a bit too much. I barely drink pure water because I find it boring and so I want to ask:
"Do you need to drink 8 cups of water, even though you're already drinking more than that of green tea?"
Please answer, I really apreciate it...and if you don't mind...add me! I would be more than happy to view your progress and share mines', it's a great motivation!

    I also drink green tea thru my work day, but definately not the 17-33 cups mentioned in the above article. Getting up to My 8 - 8oz's a day, I have a couple of cups with a green tea bag...then I drink a plain couple of cups of water...then one with Trigosamine in it for the joint benifits.
  • Thanks very much for the useful information. :)
    It's a shock for me because I've never thought that green tea could be harmful! From now on I'll try to drink more water and less tea!
