Green Tea - Main Benefits And Dangers Of Drinking Your Green Tea

Green Tea - Main Benefits And Dangers Of Drinking Your Green Tea

 

 

Green tea is well known for its major health benefits for everyone. However sometimes we need to also pay attention to the other side of the coin, the side effects, simply because they might outweigh at times the benefits and could really cause harm to people, especially if it is consumed in large quantities.
Green tea is nowadays also called as organic tea and one of its most popular varieties is the weight loss tea. This is seemingly perfect for people who are struggling to lose their weight and get back in shape. If you're in the same boat and you've heard about the weight loss tea, you're probably already considering buying a pack just to give it a try.
It is indeed true that this helps with losing weight, however there are teas of different quality on the market and getting a lower grade product might get you to lose your money without losing any weight. Therefore you have to research the product well if you want to get the very brand that will help you achieve your goals.
Most green teas have side effects that you should be aware of, and here are some point for you to keep in mind when purchasing this seemingly healthy product.
- If you are under medication, do not drink green tea.
- Avoid over-brewing the tea since it can easily harm your stomach
- Also avoid leaving your tea overnight since it loses all its health benefits for you and this kind of tea is perfect for bacteria to start growing
- Do not mix drinking tea with drinking alcohol as it's a dangerous combination
- If you suffer from a lack of serious sleep, there are other better types of teas to calm you down, such as chamomile
- If you are pregnant or even breastfeeding, do not drink this tea. Especially in your first trimester you should avoid drinking weight loss teas
- As tea also contains a bit of caffeine, avoid drinking tea and coffee in the same day if you ever want to go to sleep during the night.
When you do drink your daily dose of green tea, make sure that you use one of your favorite tea mugs for it to fully enjoy its flavor. For example ceramic tea mugs keep the flavor and aroma fully in the mug while drinking.
