Green Tea

[banGbro]

I start drinking green tea today, thus far about 4 cups. I made 8 cups worth in the morning, put 5 bags into it. Am I suppose to be hyper after drinking it? Its kind of like coffee, makes me tense on the sides of my head. Pupils dialated, so Im attractive, especially to the cops, lol.


Im using Lipton Green Tea 100% natural, naturally decaffeinated, 0 calories, drinking without sugar.

I'm trying this stuff... and the one I'm drinking right now tastes so bad...

anyone have any suggestions on how to make it taste better.. or good any good brands?

 

[Throttle]

don't brew it too hot

don't drink decaf tea. The decaffeinating process uses several chemicals. It's a misconception that decaf is healthier, whether it be coffee or tea.

Im drinking lipton green tea, and I tell you, without sugar or anything it tastes good. Not alright, but good. The only thing is that it makes you crazy, tense. But I guess that what it should be doing?

LOL, since it's decaf, there should be nowt in there to make your hyper

You sure this ain't a placebo effect, or you're smoking gear? :crackup:

I prefer the capsules. You avoid the nasty taste entirely

I have been drinking green tea since 2000 and it gives me a calming effect and not once have I been wired or tense with drinking it.

Lipton's with mixed Berry and cranberry/pomerand are the 2 I drink and I only add a tad of sugar or honey and I let it brew for 5 minutes for a stronger strength.

Hello, yet another green tea thread.

 

[spesmilitis]

I hate hot drinks. If you do too or just don't like green tea, do this:

Open the green tea bag and dump it into cold water. Gulp down the cold water.


BTW, I heard white tea is even healthier.

WBA was talking about brewing 8-10 bags a day, cooling it over night, and drink the next day....anyone care to explain this process?? do u like get a jug? do u open the tea bags or no? do u boil the water first..?

 

[Throttle]

follow the directions, multiply by 8-10...

 

[Bible_Belt]

boil the water first, remove from heat, then add the tea bags - no need to open them.

 

[banGbro]

I pour 8 cups of filtered water into coffee jug (where you make coffee). Then pour that into kettle and bring to boil. Meanwhile I stick 5 bags of green tea into the coffee jug, and then pour boiled water over it. Then cover the coffee jug with something so steam dont escape.

I drink it the same day, I dont like ice tea.


Should I be putting 8 bags instead?

What are the benefits, if any, of brewing and drinking actual tea over using an EGCG green tea extract supplement like Primaforce Lean Green or NOW's EGCG? 2-3 caps and you have your 500mg EGCG for the day, and the products are cheap. I can understand if one prefers to drink the tea to enjoy it for it's own sake or to add taste to your daily water intake, otherwise is there any reason to do so? Serious question, not a backhanded statement.
