7 Reasons to Drink Green Tea

Spotted this article on Yahoo! and thought I'd pass it on. I absolutely agree with the last point that tea burns calories. I'm often asked how I stay so thin since I don't work out. "Lots of tea!" I always say as one reason. (The others are walking and cleaning like I have OCD.)

I prefer white tea to green tea; it's the least processed of teas and thus retains the most antioxidants. It also has a delicate flavor and contains the least amount of caffeine. Lately, I can't get enough of Revolution's White Pomegranate Tea.

Eco factor: This tea isn't organic, I concede, but Revolution has started making all of its teas without a string and little paper tag to reduce waste.

To buy: $5.99 at revolutiontea.com

hi - lipton actually makes a white tea with pomegranate and blueberry - it's not organic but I think it's a huge step for a company like them!

Yeah, I love how the major tea companies have come out with white (and red!) teas recently.
