hey everyone, I just wanted to add that I have actually tried this green tea thingy for some time now, n it really does work.
But you have to be careful , eat smart n have green tea , without sugar , n if u add a bit of lime , thats even better.
When youre dieting , it boosts your metabolism, and helps you burn more fat, and I need all the help in the world when Im on a diet.I actually lost 15 pounds in a single month , about 10 months ago
But now im enjoying life , and trying to start my diet again , but SIGHSSS , thats just another story
But you cant eat pizzas n cheesey stuff and then expect green tea to burn it off for you.
P.S: I know the taste sucks..especially without sugar and lime , but heyyy! if it works why not right?

The custom of drinking green tea came from China about 800 AD. These leaves are light green and are not fermented. The supposed benefits of Green Tea include a longer life and recent studies have associated this tea with anti-carcinogens. Green Tea contains two active groups of chemicals known as xanthines (ingredients that suppress inflammation and irritation and reduce cellulite) and polyphenols or catechins (contain powerful antioxidant properties that are 20 times stronger the Vitamin E).
A plant that has traditionally been used for tea but more recently has been studied for its potent antioxidant and antitumor protective benefits. Green tea appears to play a role in the prevention of skin and other cancers. It contains a family of protective compounds called polyphenols with the most potent called epigallocatechin gallate or EGCG.
Unfermented tea that is immediately heated (or steamed) to kill the fermentation enzymes. It is then rolled and dried. Naturally low in caffeine, the brew if very light in color. Green teas range from a light, fragrant taste to a very bold vegetal flavor.
