Green Tea
Green tea is made from un-oxidized leaves and is the least processed type of tea and therefore contains the most antioxidants and beneficial polyphenols.Green tea was used in traditional Chinese and Indian medicine to control bleeding and heal wounds, aid digestion, improve heart and mental health and regulate body temperature.
Recent studies have shown green tea can potentially have positive effects on everything from weight loss to liver disorders to type 2 diabetes
Green tea is considered one of the world's healthiest drinks and contains the highest amount of antioxidants of any tea. The natural chemicals called polyphenols in tea are what are thought to provide its anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic effects.
How Much Green Tea Should You Drink?
The amount of beneficial compounds in green tea can vary, depending on the tea. But most studies suggest that drinking 3 -4 cups of green tea per day is the right amount — that’s the typical amount that people drink in Asia.
Prepare Your Green Tea?
To maximize the fat burning potential and get the most health benefits out of your green tea, you should brew your tea fresh and steep it for at least 3 -5 minutes.
And don’t add any sugar to your tea! Those empty calories will wipe out any weight loss benefits that you’ll get from your tea.
