 I have been researching natural ways to help the body rid toxins and ease the burdon of smoking.  I came across many articles about Green Tea.  I have been drinking it for the last two days...just wondering if anyone else has giving it a try and what they think!   Here' s one of the links!

I have heard such wonderful things about green tea. I dislike the taste so much that I could barf BUT my mom and my sister both swear by it for cleaning toxins out of the system and such.

I have read  a few articles on it. What I want to know is if it helps if you only drink a cup a day. like Jordan said the taste isnt the greatest but if one glass helps then I could prob force myself!

I actually dont mind the taste...which is kinda weird becasue i really really dislike tea altogher.  The only reason I tried this one was becasue of said antioxins 🙂  What really got me was when an article stated that  "Drinking a cup or more a day of green tea may counteract the effect of smoking and lung cancer, especially in smokers who may not be genetically susceptible to the cancer"  I really dont know about any of it, but am giving it a try!

BUT..another article said you would need to drink 3-10 cups a day..and that's not going to happen 🙂

 I love green tea! In fact it has has been one of my stapes and new rituals since I quit smoking. I have a cup every day and it is now something that really relaxes me so I really look forward to it.
