I was able to test EatGreenTea. Needless to say I had some mixed
reaction. Promises was that this product
would help you lose weight, it would give you all day energy and the same
amount of antioxidants as 30 cups of green tea in one teaspoon. Organic and ready to eat. Easy to eat, mix in with a smoothie or sprinkle
on top of any meal. Those are some large claims. I tried it for three weeks and here is what I
found.
Energy, this claim was true, I had all day energy without
any of the jitters. I was able to relax,
and do quiet tasks as well as have energy all day without feeling like I want
to sleep around two or three pm. I would
even wake up with some of that energy left.
I found that this made it so much easier for me to wake up every
morning. Nothing about this product made
me want to do anything. However, if I
wanted to do something I had energy that didn’t wane. If you want the jitters or the need to do
something than I suggest using an energy drink instead.
Weight loss: the only weight I lost was water. The first few days on this product I had to
go to the bathroom just about every hour.
10lbs later I stopped losing any weight at all. So all it caused me to lose was the water
that I was holding onto.
Antioxidants: I cannot say if this is true or
not. I really have no way of measuring this
type of claim. That is the issue with
this type of product. You can’t prove if
they are telling the truth or not. Also
the product may have that amount, but how much and I absorbing? That is a completely different story.
Easy to eat:
This is a complete lie. Mixed
with shakes or smoothies it tasted like grass clippings. One of the issues is how the tea is cut. I know this may be the best way and it allows
the tea to keep most of the antioxidants.
However, I found it very unpalatable.
Sprinkle on your food? Nope that
is like eating dried grass with your burger.
It tastes horrible and I had to fight every bite down. The best way I found to take this product was
to throw it in my iced tea and drink with a straw. Since they are both tea it allows the flavors
to meld. Also since I am using a straw I
can normally swallow the bits without gagging.
Another positive is that this product is naturally Gluten
free, which is one less item that I need to worry about. Also I like the fact that it is organic. At least I know that I am not eating a whole bunch of chemicals with my tea.
I loved this product for the energy it gave me. However, I strongly suggest they work on how
to get this into me. Pill form
maybe?
