These actually help burn fat? I read something about helping fat mobilization, blah blah I got confused.

yes, they do increase basal metabolism in a sufficient doseage as well as having a stack of health benefits and being a potent antioxidant source (much like olive oil, it's so healthy that you can't afford to leave it out of your diet).

you can also drink the tea if you like, same benefits.

the green tea liquid form stains my teeth something fierce.

it's because of the tanine; I don't drink green tea for that very reason.

hydrogen peroxide should help clean them off.. or you can take the pills.

a further option is white tea, which is even more potent than green tea (more expensive though) and contains no tanine hence no staining.

I drink a lot of white tea. Great stuff.

(That is, herbal white tea, not black tea with milk in it)

me too.. I feel so much better drinking the stuff rather than taking the pills. I have a cup right here!

on my third cup of the day.

I used to like make 1/4-1/2 gallon of the stuff and refrigerate overnight, but on top of 2 gallons of water a day it makes me feel like I'm drowning all day, lol. Now I'm just making 3-4 very strong cups a day, 2-3 bags per cup and chugging it down hot. I prefer the taste this way as well.

Oh and has anyone heard about XGT. its green tea energy drink powder from jackie chan (i think it may be his sweat in powder form) It's good and it claims 4x more antioxidants than regular green tea... Just curious.:woo:

Never heard of XGT.

I'm currently sipping on my last cup of white tea for the day; I get Clipper Organic White Tea, 25 pouches per box from Sainsbury's (I'm in the UK). This is the 'default' flavour and it's pretty nice although you can get strawberry, orange, raspberry, blackcurrant etc..

 

[mrRuckus]

I drink the tea because it helps me get lots of water in. Drinking just plain water is boring and i actually kinda like the bitter taste of green tea now.

It stains your teeth, that's for sure. Maybe he was drunk and got his anatomy wrong.

 

[Skilla_Staz]

Yeah, drinking something totally stains your lungs?


But I prefer the pills due to the fact that I hate the taste of green tea. I'll look for some white tea. You said it was more potent?

Would that help with the gain muscle/lose fat goal I'm on?

 

[EFFORT]

It'll help but nothing drastic, i take it more for the health benefits and let my diet and cardio take off the fat.

one key to less bitter green tea is to brew it around 180degF (~90degC) rather than right at boiling. personally, i like the taste, though if i brew it at 212degF (100degC), it comes out rather more bitter.

i too personally enjoy the test of green tea, especialy chilled with a squeez of lime and a mint.

I remember a while back as part of my diet i used to put ice, green tea, a squeez of lime, a squeez of freash orange, a lil bit of flaxseed meal and mint bloosom into my blender and make myself an enjoyable slushy.

It makes u full, relaxes you, and is hella healthy.

I put a vitamin c pill in mine sometimes. It starts to dissolve and makes it citrusy.

Maybe the caffeine in the green tea extract helps to mobilize the fatty acids from the adipose tisssue to be used as fuel source.

Green Tea does contain EGCG, a very potent antioxidant. It also contain a ****tail of other polyphenol compounds similar to EGCG.

what kind of vit.C do you use. Thes ones i get from trader joe's are hella hard to dissolve.

thats a good idea though.
