The Top 10 Best Natural Weight Loss Teas

 

 

 

1. Green Tea 

 

 

Green tea is one of the healthiest, if not the #1 healthiest, beverage on Earth.

It is known to aid in numerous health benefits such as:

• fat loss
• brain function
• reducing the risk of cancer and other diseases
• and so on!

 

Green tea is also loaded with important nutrients and antioxidants that have a variety of health benefits! (source) With that, research has shown that green tea is also rich in catechins. Catechins act as antioxidants in the body and can give your metabolism a great boost and help you burn fat at a faster pace.

In this study, participants who drank green tea lost a whopping 7 pounds MORE than those who did not drink green tea! Green tea has also been known to decrease bloating, water-retention and inflammation. In fact, many of the participants lost more inches in their waist!

 

 

2. Ginger Tea 

 

 

Ginger tea contains powerful anti-inflammatory properties! For instance, a warm cup of ginger will serve as an excellent, natural remedy for muscle and joint pain! Did you know that you can also soak in ginger tea to calm inflamed joints? Who knew! If you’re not a huge fan of drinking ginger tea, you can always add a few tea bags to your bath water for a calming and relaxing bath.

The additional benefits of drinking ginger tea AND adding organic ginger to your bath include:

• Calm digestive discomfort
• Increase blood circulation
• Strengthen immunity
• Aid in reducing inflammation
• Relieve menstrual discomfort
• Help improve metabolism
• Aid in proper digestion

 

All of these properties are going to promote healthy weight loss!

 

3. Matcha Tea 

 

 

Matcha tea is a concentrated and powdered form of green tea. It is also known as the “antioxidant powerhouse” since it delivers a mega-dose of antioxidants in every sip. For instance, one cup of matcha tea has as many antioxidants as 10 cups of brewed green tea!! Crazy!

It also includes the mighty EGCG! (See #6 for more info on EGCG!) Which aids in chronic fatigue, lower body fat, and recovery from intense stress or activity. (source) Matcha also contains high levels of caffeine!

So, to all of my overly-addicted coffee lovers, if you tend to only turn to coffee for the caffeine, try substituting a cup for some matcha instead! It has more caffeine than other teas and it will help boost your metabolism and support healthy weight loss.

4. Organic Dandelion Root Tea

 

 

Dandelion root tea is perfect for those that suffer from bloating issues! According to this study, just two cups of dandelion root tea, a day, can increase the frequency in urine output since it acts as a natural diuretic.

Which is why many people see their bloating problems subside!

Dandelion root tea has also been shown to have positive effects on the digestive system. As a result, it has been used to improve or control appetite, relieve mild constipation and soothe minor digestive ailments.

 

5. Rose Hip Tea

 

 

Rosehip tea contains a lot of vitamins and antioxidants which help to boost immunity and protect against premature aging and other degenerative diseases. Thanks to the many antioxidants, rosehip tea helps to improve your bodies absorption of nutrients. In fact, rosehip tea boasts anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe stomach muscles to prevent stomach cramps and bloating.

When it comes to weight loss, rosehip tea is known to have both laxative and diuretic properties. Because of this, it can help the body eliminate toxins, excessive amounts of salt, and unwanted fats in a productive way.

This tea can help you do that by stimulating faster digestion and increasing the frequency of urination. For example, for those that may be suffering from constipation, low metabolism, or a weakened immune system, rosehip tea can help to flush those toxins out!

 

 

6. White Tea 

White tea is considered by many to be the ultimate “fat-burning” tea!

A study, by Nutrition and Metabolism, showed that white tea boosts the immune system and stimulates lipolytic activity in adipocytes. This means that white tea can help boost lipolysis (the breakdown of fat) and block adipogenesis (the formation of new fat cells)!

White tea actually helps to break down existing fat cells that are already stored because it is very rich in an antioxidant known as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)! This is what triggers the release of fat cells in your body and actually helps the liver “speed up” when converting fat into fuel!

 

 

7. Pu-erh Tea 

 

 

Pu-erh tea is an aged and fermented Chinese tea that is made from the same plant as green tea and black tea. It has been used in China for centuries to help with lowering cholesterol and blood sugar levels. But the benefit that Pu-erh tea is most known for is supporting weight loss!

According to studies, Pu-erh tea can actually help shrink fat cells since it suppresses the synthesis of fatty acids in the body. All-in-all, this powerful tea can help aid proper digestion, fat breakdown, and potentially prevent your body from producing higher levels of fat.

 

 

8. Ashwagandha Tea 

Ashwagandha tea is known for lowering levels of stress (cortisol) in the body! Stress can be a huge contender in your weight loss plateau since it can lead to stressful binge-eating and high levels of cortisol production (source)!

Stress also causes inflammation which is linked to obesity in many individuals. However, ashwagandha tea can help with all of this!

This tea is known to have powerful ingredients which help to lower the amount of cortisol in the bloodstream!

If you suffer from hypothyroidism, chances are you may struggle to lose weight. But, ashwagandha tea is known to boost your T4 levels and balance your thyroid hormones.

 

9. Tumeric Tea 

 

 

Turmeric tea is known for having the active ingredient curcumin, which is proven to have anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties! Additionally, curcumin has long been used in traditional medicines as a treatment for many digestive conditions such as IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). Studies have also shown that the curcumin in turmeric tea helps to reduce the pain associated with IBS.

For weight loss, turmeric tea can also prevent metabolic syndrome.

What is metabolic syndrome? It is another prevalent risk factor linked to obesity. The fat cells that are accumulated around the abdomen causes metabolic changes that cause metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory properties in turmeric tea can help reduce the risk of cholesterol, triglyceride levels and blood sugar levels that act against the condition!

 

10. Oolong Tea

 

 

Did you know that Oolong tea helps to boost your metabolism and burn 12% more body fat?! It can also aid in healthy and sufficient digestion since oolong tea alkalizes the digestive tract. This tea reduces inflammation in those that have acid reflux and ulcer problems. Because it is also mildly antiseptic, oolong tea can clear bad bacteria from your gut!

Also, the antioxidants found in oolong, coming from polyphenols, work effectively for metabolizing sugar. So, those who have type 2 diabetes can benefit greatly from oolong tea!
