| Thoughts on tea? I used to hate tea. I never wanted to even give it a chance. But I figured I needed to all but completely give up soda pop to lose weight, which I did about a year ago. I now have soda pop as an occasional treat, but for my day-to-day caffeine intake, I drink green tea. I usually have two cups of it to start off the day. I might have another cup around lunch, but usually not. But what I've been consuming even more than green tea is red (roobios) tea, which is a true (not herbal) tea that is naturally caffeine free. I usually have two cups with dinner, but sometimes I have even more than that. I often drink it at the end of my workouts too. I usually have two cups of iced red tea with a little grapefruit juice added for flavor.
So, what do people think about tea? Besides getting too much caffeine, is there any probably with drinking a lot of green tea? And is there any reason to limit intake of red tea? |
