With Americans (alone) consuming upwards of 25% of their caloric intake in drinks, healthier beverage choices in our diets are a must in order to help fight obesity, pre-diabetes, and many other avoidable health concerns. The time for tea to take its role as a natural and healthy beverage is now.\u201d<\/p>\n

For those tea drinkers looking to slim down, whether for health reasons or just to enter the upcoming bikini season with more confidence, certain premium teas are becoming a popular choice. Even wellness gurus on national television are advocating white teas, green teas, oolong teas, pu’erh tea, and blends of these, for daily consumption.
