Green Tea.... - Click HERE for Original Thread

MightyMidget
do you drink the stuff and why?? I have been for a while but recently I have ben trying to drink lots.....I have had 4 liters of it tonight at work (holy piss tank).

I drink it because it is super good for you and it is a diaretic so it "cleans" you out. One of the guys I work with drinks it too......like its going out of style. The one thing I don't like about it is that I have to piii like every HALF a friggin hour.....oh well its good for ya.

jasmine and japanese green tea are all good. tea also has enzymes in it that help you digest grease and fat from your foods :)

i havent heard about it being a cleansing agent though...if its a diuretic its only because of the caffeine in it, so im guessing that any tea would be the same?

Thats why you pee so much....cause it is a diaretic. And a diaretic doesnt clean you out really....it gets rid of water in your body. So be careful with that.....it can actually dihydrate you if you take to much especially in the summer when it hot out.

its just like drinking coffee...also bodybuilders use diuretics before competitions so that there muscles show more, but thats completely off topic.

make sure you drink water on top of tea though...

Yes bodybuilders us diaretics to take the water out between the muscle and the skin so the muscle will show better. When I used to compete I seen guys cramp up and drop on stage from using them and getting so dehydrated. They had to be taken to the hospital and put on a IV

Cool Steve......just wanted to make sure....diaretics arent something to screw around with.......just looking out for ya............ :bigthumbup:

But I think with green tea a person would have to drink a crap load for it to do any real harm.

GirlRacer P1
I thought all tea did that, as well as alcohol and sodas, or am I wrong there?

I know Lance :bigthumbup: .......you just wanna make sure you have atleast ONE guy to beat on your bike in the summer :thefinger:

and ya i think one would have to drink many many liters of green tea to have any ill effects. Hell Asia has been drinking it for years and year and they always live longer.
