    Green tea

    Why do people buy green tea as a supplement or a fatburner with mostly green tea and something else when you can just buy green tea and drink it?

    Well I think that it's because they don't like drinking tea but IMO it's just a waste of money to buy supplements with green tea when you can just buy the regular tea bags at the store.

    in majority of supplements it will be green tea extract which is more potent that green tea you consume as a drink. you would have to drink a substantial amount of green tea to get the same amount as a serving of green tea extact

    Green tea is a double edge sword, i used to drink it by the liters according to my other mediocre sport doctor, since i changed sport doctor i have been told differently, green tea as lots of good benefits, fat loss is not one of them, but if you drink too much it removes iron and calcium from your body.

    Sench green tea is the best in leaf form, make sure not to drink too much, i would say 1-2 cups a day is enough.
