| Hey there,
I used to dislike tea too, but during a recent cycling trip we were riding all day and usually ending in rain and the hosts would always have a pot of hot tea and some little cakes for us to snack on when we came back in. Since then, I've been drinking at least two cups a day...usually green tea. There are mixed reports on the benefits of it, the last thing I read said caffeine and polyphenols in green tea increase thermogenesis, the rate at which calories are burned, and therefore raises metabolism. Who knows, but I love the stuff and it IS better for you than sugary juices and soda. |
