Being studied: Although studies are promising - i don't believe that the results are conclusive at this point. Tea is derived from the camellia sinensis tree. The leaves contain antioxidant polyphenols. The linus pauling institute reported a study that suggested green tea can assist with glycemic control. Catechins in the tea may ^ thermogenesis. Green tea has a diuretic effect so you lose water weight.
