    Good grief there are any amount of flavours of green tea to try! Where do you usually shop? My current favourite is a salted caramel flavour one (though it's just the smell rather than the taste).

    i saw this flavour in tesco the other day but somehow i suspected it might be unpleasant so didnt bother.

    regardless of flavor they aren't going to miraculously make the weight drop off

    I've always used green tea right up until contest time . Great stimulant and mild diuretic to keep subcutaneous water off.

    Green tea is meant to be linked to weight loss but there are so many others that also claim this. Maybe go to Holland and Barrets and see if a different tea can help aid your weight loss more than green tea.

    No teas aid weight loss. A lot of clever marketing on their part (which people obviously believe, judging by the number of threads here about tea and weight loss), but it's all woo.

    It depends on how you look at it. I drink about a gallon a day of unsweetened green tea. I love it. It's a healthy, natural source of caffeine to keep me focused, and it helps aid metabolism in the same way that water does - by keeping you hydrated. So, in a way, sure. It can help metabolism.

    Green tea is awful but I have 1 cup a day.

    Perhaps you are over brewing it. Green tea is more delicate than black - boiling water is too hot for it. I use the lowest setting on my electric hot water kettle and steep for exactly three minutes, setting the timer to make sure I get it right.

    The hot water dispenser at my former office was also the perfect temperature.

    I love Celestial Seasonings blueberry tea hot. It's wonderful. I don't even sweeten it.

    Try using actual tea leaves. I think it's much better.

    Green tea is supposed to aid in weight loss, Even if it is minimal, there's also the benefits of anti oxidants.
