I switched to green tea after I ran out of coffee one week. I noticed my concentration with my school work greatly increased. I also noticed my mild case of acne rosacea was clearing up after a few weeks. I researched if green tea can help with rosacea and I found out it can! I apply it directly to my face once a day as well as drinking it. It has practically cured my rosacea. Green tea isn’t the best tasting tea, but it is doing wonders for me.
i dont think it has that much, its good for you teeth and bones anyway
Okay for all those who put NEGATIVE’s to my comment, please check out “the Flouride Deception” here on you tube. People think flouride is good for you when in fact its poisionous. Also, green tea is excellent for your metabolic rate and for fat loss benefits, just becareful on the amount you drink. Do your research before putting your two cents in for those who put negative feedback.
naw you got me wrong, youre right about fluoride… ive seen what too much can do on tv…but drinking a couple cups of tea isn’t gonna give you some fucked up disease, the positives outweigh the negatives in this case
i used to drink 5+ cups of coffee per day. I then saw a video on the side-effects on coffee. I began drinking teas (various), and lo and behold, my body detoxed and I have a better results. I feel better. I felt more awake and fully aware. Now, I drink 5+ cups of tea.
Good Job!~
i hear alot about this bout it tast sooooooooooooooooo bad to me!!!!!
trying to change my taste buds to like it.
does anyone know if other teas r ok?
like is peperment tea as good as green tea?
wait? you don’t like the taste of green tea? well have you tried jasmine green tea? I love that tea it is my favorite
, but I drink green tea everyday!
what kind do you drink? I only drink green tea, but do you drink other kinds. I do not like fruty kind it is really gross…
lol yeah me too i love green tea not because of benefits, but it just suits me
i am so asian. lol
no i dont like the taste. i herd if i put surgar and crap in it i ruin the benifits so i try it plain and its really hard 4 me to drink it. its like torture!!! lol
im use to kool aid and pop and all that bad stuff……….so i just need to retrain my buds to get use to it
oh well it shouldn’t be a torture. I am sure you can find another tea that is best for you? why do are you trying to get used to it if you don’t like it? To me it is addicting…?
lol…………well im trying to get healthy. and green tea has good health benifits i guess to help me get more healthy
Is the common green tea in tea bags sold in most American mass supermarkets still healthy?
I don’t like pure green tea but I can drink it. You gota buy diffrent types of flavored green tee. I like the passion fruit green tea sold at ALDI store.
dont use white sugar its terrible for you, use honey much healthier.
so glad i don’t mind the taste. Though if I drink more than 2 cups i get a small headache. If your trying it for first time, don’t let me put you off, it is just my experience, The benefits are excellent and I love the fact that it is all natural!
Does drinking too much green tea cause diarrhea? Also is it a bad idea to drink green tea before going to bed?
green tea kicks ass. I didn’t like the taste at first but now i want it all the time. I drink that in place of water most of the time. Hope thats not bad O_o
too much of anything is not good. green tea works different with different people, my brother and grandma drink it and it makes them calm and eventually fall alseep, but not me. i know caffeine blocks the receptors that recieve chemicals to help you fall asleep. so i cant drink it after 8pm. there is decaf green tea, look for it, it might be a little more expenisve but it will be worht it
Ito En Oi Ocha Japanese Green tea is the way to go
may I suggest drinking decaf green tea to lower blood pressure. excessive caffeine can increase your blood pressure levels.
@foolsgoldsoma – So.. is green tea good for you? Peace!
@Lingerfoot
absolutely. this tea contains EGCG, a powerful anti-oxidant.
thanks!
