Are you a tea drinker?


Have you had your morning cup or 2, or 3 of green tea this morning?  Green tea has many benefits to the human body.  Besides providing a nice relaxation routine in the morning it can help boost your metabolism.  Green tea comes in many flavors so if plain green tea isn't doing it for you try mango infused, raspberry, blueberry, peach infused green tea instead.  Below are just some of the reasons we need to drink green tea.


  • Powerful antioxidants 
  • Possibly helps prevent cancer
  • Helps maintain your weight
  • Helps boost metabolism which can lead to weight loss
  • Keeps cholesterol in check
  • Helps keep your skin looking fresh and young
  • Blood Pressure-stays in check
  • Helps fight depression 
So the benefits are quite extraordinary for having a cup or 3 a day.  Now to get all the benefits most research says you may need up to 6 cups a day.  I would recommend consuming the 6 cups 2 at a time throughout the day and not all 6 at once, or you may have many trips to the nearest restroom.  Another great benefit of green tea it has zero calories so drink up!
