How to use green tea as a dieting aid. iv heard that using boiling water damages the health properties?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tea temperatures: Green teas retain the best flavour when brewed between 140°f - 185°f. Tannins in the tea will cause bitterness if heated higher. However, I am not aware of degradation of health promoting properties at higher temperatures.
