I've heard countless people tell me that they have drank green tea several times a day and found they have lost weight. So I thought I would give it a try as i've just changed my lifestyle of eating habits and would love to supplement that. Is there a difference in what brand or whether it's flavored or not? Do they all work the same or what? So confused....

Hi,
My personal preference is for Japanese Sencha Green Tea - although many people will recommend a blend called Pu Err tea that is currently being endorsed by many celebrities as a weight loss product.
Green Tea works to help you lose weight by speeding up your metabolism and increasing thermogenesis - your bodies ability to generate heat - and the function you spend 70% of your calories on.

Double Dragon Green Tea

I drink about 7 large cups of green tea every day.
The one I drink is called Double Dragon Organic Green Tea. If you are in the UK you can get it at Holland & Barratt's but wherever you are I'm sure you would be able to get it.
I lost about 50 lbs 7 years ago and this green tea has been part of my daily diet for about 4 years. I have maintained my weight but you should remember that there is no 'trick' to keeping weight off or losing it.
Green tea can only be a small part of a healthy diet and exercise regime. Everything else matters too: The other foods you consume and how much exercise you are getting.
The tea helps - especially once you get used to the taste (boiled grass). It keeps you regular and it proves a healthy substitute to regular hot drinks like coffee and black tea.
You can add lemon or honey to it to help with the taste - but honey is high in calories so not too much if you are trying to lose weight.
