In a similar vein, Genelia recently revealed that Riteish doesn’t drink coffee and chai (tea). “I drink green tea,” Riteish quipped in a rapid-fire with Hauterrfly.
Taking a cue from the couple’s admission, let’s find out what happens to the body when you have green tea regularly.
Green tea has plenty of health benefits as compared to milk coffee and tea, said Sonia Bakshi, nutritionist and founder, DtF.
She listed some of the benefits
Heart: Green tea may help lower total cholesterol and raise HDL (good) cholesterol.
Weight: Green tea boosts metabolism, which in turn may help you lose weight.
Mental alertness: Green tea improves mental alertness and mood.
Digestion: Green tea helps in reducing harmful gut bacteria.
Skin: Green tea may help in reducing skin inflammation.
Stress and anxiety: Green tea may help alleviate anxiety and stress. Green tea has one-third the amount of caffeine as compared to milk coffee, making it a better choice for those sensitive to anxiety concerns.
Blood sugar: Green tea may help manage blood sugar, too.
