Green tea triggers an enzyme which dissolves excess fat in the body. peppermint is good for digestion not sure about weight loss.

Green tea contains chemicals that boost metabolism. White tea contains the same compounds in higher amounts so should have similar or greater benefits.

Question Author

When you say white tea do you mean regular tea???

grasscarp

No. It is not regular tea. Regular tea is black tea. The white is when they pick the very young buds. I have found it in Tesco. Clipper and Twinings package it.

No tea can help weight loss. The only way to lose weight is to consume fewer calories than you expend. End of story. If a certain tea takes the edge off your appetite, so be it but the answer to weight loss is still to eat less.
