Green Tea - Top Secret Weight Loss Drink
One of the most natural and highly beneficial beverages for weight loss is Green Tea!
And I’m not talking about the bottled green tea which you get at a corner store that has a whole bunch of artificial ingredients added to it! Just natural green tea sold in tea bags. If you can get organic even better!
Green tea has been used in many weight loss products because of its ability to help promote fat loss by ramping up your metabolism. Its high caffeine content increases body temperature and this leads to your body burning up fat calories and even removing excess water from your body (the water which usually gives that bloated look!).
But many of you don’t like the taste of green tea. You’ve either only been exposed to green tea in Japanese restaurants or haven’t really given it a chance in the grocery store. Now there are two solutions. I recommend this first one, which is take a look next time you go shopping and you’ll notice that you can get many flavours of green tea. From pomegranate to peach, to chai and mint (which is great iced). One of the brands I recommend is Stash Tea, and they have an awesome one that is Ginger Peach flavoured. Here is the link to Amazon – Stash Premium Ginger Peach Green Tea Bags
Try and have two to three cups throughout the day (great when you’re at work)! But if you prefer water and would still like to get the benefits of green tea you can also get pure green tea extract supplements. Extremely affordable and very effective, here is one that I recommend – PrimaForce Lean Green

Hi Sam,
I’ve heard that white tea, specifically silver needle is more effective than green tea for weight loss. Also what do you think about the acai berry craze? Does it work or is it a scam?
HI Jasmine, thank you for your comment. You are right about white tea, it has been shown to have more antioxidants then green tea so I would definitely recommend it more than green tea. White tea used to be somewhat hard to find but these days I’m seeing it more and more with different kinds of flavours as well.
Form my research Acai berry is an excellent antioxidant that will help your body against chemicals and pollutants and can have long term health benefits. However, my research in the medical journals directory shows that no scientifically accurate studies have been done to correlate acai berry with fat loss. So great to have it but I wouldn’t call it a miracle weight loss fruit!
I will write a full featured article on acai berries in the near future!
I drink 3 to 4 cups of green tea a day and i take a green tea extract supplement. Is it possible for me to be over doing it?
