Disadvantages of Drinking Green Tea For Weight Loss:
1) Green tea is not a magic bullet
While some people will tell you that green tea is the be-all-end-all for weight loss success, I think the keyword here is balance. You’re not going to eat 5000 calories a day, drink a cup of green tea and make it all go away – it just isn’t going to happen. A healthy diet and increased exercise will go a long way in helping you lose weight and keep it off.
2. Be cautious of the caffeine if you have health problems
For some people that have heart troubles, high blood pressure or stimulant sensitivities, the caffeine in green tea may not be the best idea. If you’re worried about the caffeine from green tea, try taking green tea extract. Most green tea extract is made from decaffeinated green tea so you can still get the weight loss benefits without the caffeine.
Cautions and Suggestions about Drinking Tea
• People with stomach problems should drink light green tea and only do so after meals.
• Pregnant woman should limit their tea drinking –no more than 2 servings (4 grams) of green tea per day.
• When you are starving, avoid drinking tea. Tea will enhance your metabolism and makes you feel hungrier; sometimes, it might make you nauseated.
• If you are taking medicine, do not use tea water to help you swallow the pills. Tea may interact with the medicine.
• Do not drink too much tea at night before you go to bed. Not only will the caffeine in tea
keep you awake, the water you take in will wake you up.
• Generally, do not let kids (younger than 12) drink tea if they are not used to caffeine. If
let them drink, only allow them to drink light green tea and only during the day.
• Do not drink tea left over from the previous day.
• Try to brew tea in cups made of china, glass, earth pot or stainless steel containers. If
use paper cup, use specially designed cups for brewing tea. Do not keep tea in the paper cup
for too long. Drink it as soon as possible.
• Never brew tea using foam cups. Tea will interact with it and generates harmful
substances.
• When green tea is brewed, it should be light green. If it is brown or dark after brewing,
do not drink it.
• Clean teacups or pots immediately after tea is served. Otherwise it is very hard to clean
them.
• To maximize green tea benefits, do not add sugar to the tea.
