I used to drink green tea but suddenly just stopped..I will go back on it now after this video. Thanks Dr Jo for taking your time to do this video. God bless you
I love drinking my afternoon Rishi matcha super green tea with a chamomile tea. I drink various Brands of tea. I've been drinking green tea for 20 years , almost daily
I drink green daily. My blood pressure was 140 before I started, then went down to 128. Then I started taking magnesium for leg cramps. Whent to the doctor for my check up, and it was 120. He asked me "what are you doing?" of course I told him but he looked so dumb found. Lol
Thanks Dr. Joe! which is more effective for lowering blood pressure, green tea or hibiscus tea? I already drink 3 cups of hibiscus tea daily. Thank you!
@@drjoetvMDI’ve been binging on your videos lately. I’m am thrilled at what you’ve been sharing. You are intelligent and generous with helping others get to solutions quickly. So ‘thank you’ Doctor. ❤
@@drjoetvMD Thank you Dr Joe. Do know sometimes you will see is written decaffeinate on the label But when you take it at night you will discuss is a lair. Which brands will you recommend?
Thank you for the video. I will resume drinking green tea. By the way, can you expatiate more about the differences between green tea in its natural state and green tea in its extract form? Is the packaged ones we buy at the store considered to be the extract?
Green tea in its natural state is your regular green tea that is minimally processed. Green tea extract is a concentrated form of the green tea active ingredient, the epigallocatechin-3-gallate. I will encourage you to watch the video I did on the subject way back in 2018 here ruclips.net/video/8-Cx09Lak8c/видео.html Apologies for the not so good audio quality but you'll get the idea. I may need to do a refresher video on the subject sometime
Thanks for this great video! I used to drink green tea exclusively but switched to coffee some years ago now. You convinced to switch back, or at least supplement my coffee habit with green tea. I wonder if rooibos tea has health benefits that are similar to green tea?
Yes, it's usually written on the pack as Decaf. If decaf is not labelled on the pack, then that packet is the default regular caffeinated variety@@julietkumi2867
Green tea extract is a concentrated form of the epigallocatechin-3-gallate. I talk about it here ruclips.net/video/8-Cx09Lak8c/видео.html in a video I did in 2018
Hello, I work at 12 hour shift 7 PM to 7 AM my problem, eating and sleeping in the a.m. before bed. What do you recommend as a breakfast smoothie that’s filling and and won’t cause weight and will flaxseed smoothie of some sort be helpful?
Love green tea but I take it occasionally cos i do worry about the caffeine in green tea nd also for no reasons have some doubts about the decaffeinated ones😊, please Dr Joe is the decaffeinated green tea safe for daily consumption? Thank you for sharing this informative video with us💯
@@drjoetvMD truly amazing appreciate you Dr Joe for always having you here in the comments section~ thank you✨ Please one more question; how bad is Srm-Gamma-glutamyltransferase 47 UI/L and ur advise on how to control it, that what my recent blood work says... Meanwhile i'm almost a no alcohol person, thank you so much💯
I did this video ruclips.net/video/8-Cx09Lak8c/видео.html way back in 2018. I may need to redo it. It's about Green tea extract made obviously with EGCG. Watch it and you'll see what I mean. Stick to the tea not the extract
@@drjoetvMD Now I drink Earl Grey or dandelion tea with lots of xylitol. I will usually take just a sip, swish it around my teeth for about 20 seconds and spit it out.
I drink it too but i slowed down because my dictor said it has caffein in it and it could make my thyroid act up again so i stopped drinking it my thyroid has been in remission for two and a half years now so i am staying away from green tea tks for sharing
Thanks for this video! I've recently had to start taking blood pressure pills😒 you mentioned that decaffeinated would be best. Can I still drink at least 2 glasses of green tea per day?
Thank you,I use to take green tea before,I take it with lemon,I don't add sugar,but after some hours before I eat because I don't usually have breakfast, I will be feeling nauseous, so I stopped taking it.i don't know why I use to feel that way.
@drjoetvMD yeah,the problem might be because I take it in the morning and I don't eat for several hours,,,I will definitely try it btw lunch /dinner...
They are both good teas. It also depends on what you are after. For high BP, hibiscus tea has an edge over green tea for instance. I find most green teas in tea bags don't look green unless you get matcha tea. Maybe they get oxidised before they get to the consumer
Bigelow Organic Green makes a brewed tea into a golden color. I've never seen it to be caramel color. It tastes good too. Thanks for sharing this video with us. 😊
@drjoetvMD Dr Joe just to let you know that I started doing your BP HIIT exercise in my exercise routine about 2 weeks and I am already noticing a sudden drop from 133/73 to 119/73.I am retired 76 yr old . Thank you for sharing your advice to everyone.
I’d love to be able to drink it but I found out if you have anaemia it’s not good for iron deficiency? Is this true . Also caffeine gives me terrible migraines
Also can I ask I’ve always hated the taste . I wouldn’t want to add normal sugar to it as sugar is unhealthy too but what can make it taste better and get rid of that awful bitter taste you get with green tea 🍵? I always feel dry mouth and horrible after taste .
@@drjoetvMD Thankyou so much I will give that a try . If I don’t have original green tea leaves in its purest form and they are decaffeinated pure green tea bags is this ok ? Or not . Thanks for your advice

Thank you very much sir, for all your teachings. I want to ask is coffee ok to drink some times bcos I love coffee
That's a loaded question. I'm not a coffee fan because of the effect on BP and nerves but if you don't have BP issues, then go ahead and drink it
I love green tea and drink tea bags everyday
Thank you

Green tea the greatest ! Ive used for years ! I go to Chinese store better
quality ! No one believes my age! 😊🌈 ⏰ late 50's
Awesome to know and good tip to get some from Chinese shop instead. I shall look into that
Kindly share 😊
Can i drink it 3 times a day
Yes
I also drink it daily. Pukka matcha green tea with red ginseng
Thank you
My question is that I have problems forming oxalate kidney stones & was told to atay away from black tea. Would green tea make my problem worse? TIA
Both black tea and green tea come from the same plant and the leaves used are the same. So your oxalate problem will be the same with green tea
Add lemon 🍋 to reduce oxilates acid
Will ice tea have the same benefits
No, I will prefer a fresh brewed tea
U said we should avoid green tea in one of ur videos especially d matcha green tea
Yes I drink the plain green tea (decaf) but not the matcha tea
I like to add a quarter teaspoon of ceylon cinnamon witch is really great for blood sugar control
Thank you
I was taking Green Tea Extract with EGCG.
Not a good idea, L R especially with your liver issues. Please stop using it
I have never liked tea without a lot of sugar.
