Thanks to the Ayodhya verdict, I can enjoy a long weekend from Thursday to Sunday. Yeaiii :) But the sad part is, I can't go out anywhere because there could be riots in the city because of the verdict. So I'm going to relax, take a break, sleep all day,watch movies, eat, read and blog :)
3years back, my friend OnYou told me about how green tea is good for health and weight loss. The very next day I went and bought my 1st pack of green tea and since then I've been having it almost everyday. It originates from China and is made with the leaves of Camellia sinesis. There's nothing extraordinary about this cup of tea. It tastes almost like normal water. It's just a wee lil bitter. I don't think it has helped me lose weight. But its got a lot of other benefits.
-They help kill the cancerous cells and stop their progression.
-Helps prevent the development of Type 1 diabetes.
-Chemicals found in green tea may also be effective in treating genital warts and preventing symptoms of cold and flu.
-Polyphenols present in green tea may help treat viral hepatitis - inflammation of liver from a virus
-Green tea lowers total cholesterol and helps raise good cholesterol.
-Helps in weight loss. They boost metabolism and help burn fat.
Certain Chinese restaurants like Aromas of China and Mainland China serve green tea with your meal. I usually buy Lipton clear green tea and I love how every tea bag comes with this little note. Note of the day - A cup that purifies your body from within.
