Hello everyone....

We have a question about whether Green Tea is liver friendly and can it be used to help with weight loss? The drink as well as Green Tea in pill form?? Any info would be appreciated!! Hope everyone has a restful weekend this week as a caregiver has been a challenging one!! Whew....glad the week is over!!:)

Thanks,

Green tea is okay, but I'd stay away from the pill form. They've warned me about herbals at Mayo Transplant Center. However, the tea is fine. I started using it for weight loss, but only drink a cup a day. I found out that the weight loss benefit only comes if you drink 5-6 cups a day. Too much for me.

Hope you have a restful weekend!

Hugs,
Connie

My hubby's doc told him green tea is okay for his liver. Before he crashed from ESLD he drank a lot of green tea, but now it upsets his stomach.
