There's the new Snapple drink of "All Natural Green Tea with 55mg of EGCG" to boost your metabolism. I think all green tea did that before anyways but I just am wondering what would happen if one drank a bottle a day? What about a large amount like 4 bottles a day? Would it affect your health for the better or worse? Would you lose too much weight? Basically, what would happen?

ALL tea--green or not--has a ingredient (tannins, I believe) that block 65% of your iron absorption. Because of this, you shouldn't drink tea 2hrs before or after an iron-rich meal. This is especially important if you are a woman because during your period you lose enough iron when you bleed. So this, coupled with the tea can make you feel a bit tired or anemic.
Tea's not gunna make you lose a large amount of weight on it's own. It will HELP you lose weight IN ADDITION TO A HEALTHY DIET AND EXERCISE. You can drink a gallon of tea a day and isn't not gunna make you lose weight. It can help (maybe an extra 1/4 lb a week at most) if you already are exercising and eating healthy.

Every tea does increase metabolism process due to caffine and other ingredients. It decreases your natural resistance against cold.

You would probably have to pee a lot.
