I mainly take the pill form since it's easier but if you're going to drink it instead you should probably have 5-6 teabags/day. | |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 158 | no, just drink green tea continuously throughout the day. A long time ago I used to drink 8+ 10oz cups a day (plain, nothing in it) and I started to see numerous health benefits. Specifically in the quality of my skin, and it helped get rid of some calicses (spelling?!?) I had on my elbows Personally I use green tea as an antioxidant. 400mg of green tea extract is a staple in my pwo supplementation.

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 9 | I would try to have 6 a day, if you can. I've found that drinking 6+ cups of green tea is far more beneficial than green tea caps.
