When is it good to drink green tea?
Green tea is loaded with natural antioxidants and fights with free radicals which are the cause of many chronic diseases. To get the maximum amount of nutrients from green tea, the best time to drink green tea is between meals (1 hour before or 1 hour after the meal) here are a few tips when it is good to drink green tea for different purposes.
<For Obesity>
You can drink 30 min before you work out to boost metabolism and it helps burn fat faster. It also gives energy so you can exercise longer! You can also drink it during meals or right after the meals since the catechins (antioxidant) may prevent the absorption of fats in your body. Our recommendation is Sencha green tea powder and Sencha loose leaf tea. For Sencha loose leaf tea, try to eat the used leaves by adding to your salad etc to get the same effect as Sencha green tea powder, as most nutrients remain in the leaves.
<For type 2 diabetes>
You can drink during your meal since green tea may help prevent your blood sugar level go up and prevent sugar absorption.
