Helps what? Hydration?1

I used to prefer drinking green tea cold. It's meant to be great for burning fat. Don't really drink it now1

Sorry that's "woo". Green tea is great to drink as an alternative to water. If you're coming off alot of coffee drinking, the cafeine may be a help to you.3 -

Citrus juice brings out green tea's antioxidants, making them more available for your body to absorb. Very good for you.1

I'm trying the lemon green tea at the minute0 -
Green tea has antioxidants, but that's about it. It isn't a fat burner, and your kidneys and liver do a very good job of detoxing you and if they aren't then you need a hospital, not a cup of tea. The whole 'detox' thing is just a way for companies to make money.6

I enjoy green tea for the taste. I hope it's "antioxidants" are helping but I can't really measure thatthat.
And the low caffeine means that I can frequently get up from my desk to refill it, which helps me have an excuse to move around at least an hour which you're supposed to do at a desk job. I fidget and get very distracted when I don't get up from my desk enough.0 -
So mixed opinions then lol0

Tea does nothing for your body but hydrate you.1

@vlhill11 . I drink green tea every day, all day.
As mentioned by @sylkates , it is great for hydration, if you get bored with plain water, if you do not wish to drink too much coffee, etc. You can walk a little bit to prepare the next tea cup.
I agree with all posters that mentioned, there are no "fat burners". This and detoxes are myth created to separate desperate people from their money
