Benefits of Green Tea ... Drink or capsules ?

WLM21

A friend was saying he was feeling much better after starting to drink green tea, but had no facts & figures to back up his claim.

My wife and I are in good health (fingers crossed and touching wood) but thought about trying it.

Are there any proven benefits ?

Would green tea capsules have the same effect as that awful tea drink.

Thank you

Green tea is a lot of anti-oxidants and can help fat loss if you exercise. I would personally recommend you drink the tea over taking capsules, but would only have one cup a day.

I completely agree with you. It promotes health metabolism, which is vital to weight management. Since it is rich in anti oxidants, which eliminates damaging free radicals in the body and have a vast array of remarkable health benefits.

Drink up and enjoy!

I know that its supposed to be good for you, but personally i think it tastes rank lol
So i have gone with a compromise by using the tetley blend with green tea.

I only drink green tea, i love it. Not noticed any difference in my weight or fitness though, been drinking it now for about 2 years. Like everything else, take the claims with a pinch of salt. I drink it because i like it, not for any benefit it may or may not have.

Normally you don't add milk to it but having said that I have seen someone who does. It usually draws comments of 'ugh' and 'yuck' from other people :rotfl:

You can add sugar to it, or honey, to sweeten it.
