A member asked:
I've started drinking green tea. to help my weight loss. however, i feel thirsty more often and i also urinate often. could the tea have caused this?

Tea is a: diuretic so yes, it can cause us to urinate more frequently. You can find EGCG capsules at the health food store which will provide larger doses of the beneficial ingredient in green tea w/out the diuretic effect. Peace and good health. Limit the tea drinking to on or two cups daily.
