Fat-burning Tea

[Kev]

I've been drinking green tea with mint, cranberry and apple and pear from Twinings fro the past couple weeks.

On it's own it's horrible I think, really sharp, grassy taste. But flavoured it's actually quite nice. I am happy to drink 5 cups a day and genuinely fancy it as much as normal tea with milk now.

Not sure if it's helping me lose weight, but it's nice to think that every little helps.

Drinking tea with milk completely negates the antioxidant properties. All the polyphenols bind with calcium and aren't bioavailable. There's my tea input.

HerbaLife has a green tea concentrate that they market as a fat-burner and as an energy supplement. As a weight loss aid they recommend drinking two quarts per day, which I think would be about the same as shooting speed into your eyeballs because one 8oz glass keeps me here typing away for far too long.

What about Japanese orange tea ?

[Howlin Mad Missy]

are you talking regular black tea that is flavoured with orange?

green tea, no sugar no milk, thats the way to do it.

taste like crap but after your 5th cup or so you get used to it and it becomes kind of enjoyable

JING is THE best place for tea. Not asda own brand green tea

Had a slew of Japanese mandarin Orange tea. Good stuff in the evening.

Now, tea can dehydrate you right? How much is too much? I drink a cup of green tea once a day to replace the habit of drinking 2 cups of coffee a day. I'm trying to cut back on caffeine. I am thinking of adding some different supplements to the mix. Has anyone tried silver colloids? I'm thinking of ordering some but I wanted to get some advice first.
