Is green tea really good for you or is it just hype?
May 27, 2009Also, is there a certain brand that is better or more potent? I just buy Bigelow Green Tea from the supermarket. Thanks!
Green tea is good as long as you don't overly fill it with sugar. It contains high amounts of antioxidants and little to no caffiene. I use Uncle Lee's brand because it's organic and tastes great but Tazo also makes a really good one. Chai tea is good too but it's very hard to find authentic cha tea in the US. Most of it is a customized blend or offset of chai tea and not the real thing.
yes it is very good for you! full of antioxidants! try drinking an organic/natural one!

There does seem to be some reliable information about green tea having certain health benefits. But yes, there's a lot of hype about this or that food; including green tea and it is hard to separate the truth from the hype sometimes.

I like green tea because it tastes good, has health benefits and has caffeine, so it keeps me from drinking diet coke or lots of coffee. I buy the Trader Joe's brand.
