Green tea is a traditional drink of people looking after their health and shape. It is good for the body, prolongs life, protects against many diseases, and promotes weight loss or maintenance. Most green tea drinkers who drink it regularly are not overweight. For those who are not inclined to such tea drinking, but want to grow thin, a diet on green tea can help. There are a large number of such techniques - from very tough fasting days to gentle power systems. In general, this healing infusion is included in the menu of almost all diets, as it actively promotes weight loss, enhancing the effectiveness of any diet.
Tea leaves, which, according to the production technology, undergo minimal fermentation (oxidation), contain many vitamins, minerals, and other useful substances that ensure the normal functioning of the whole body, which contributes to healthy weight loss.
Regular consumption of emerald infusion increases the metabolic rate, and also has a number of other effects leading to the loss of extra pounds:
- gives a diuretic effect, helping to eliminate excess fluid;
- is an excellent fat burner, increasing the volume of digested fats by almost 1.5 times;
- reduces appetite by reducing the amount of food eaten;
- has a diaphoretic effect, cleansing the body of toxins and toxic substances.
Due to the high content of caffeine, green tea invigorates, improves mood, increases efficiency, making it easier to endure the hardships of the strictest diet.
Diets on green tea can last from one day and almost indefinitely, depending on the restrictions imposed or the purpose of use. All options for such food systems can be divided into two types: strict - lasting 1-3 days or gentle - from one week or more.
The advantage of fasting days or rigid two to three day diets based on increased consumption of green tea is the ability of the drink to satisfy hunger, give a feeling of fullness, providing the body with most of the necessary substances. It helps to lose extra pounds with less discomfort or to cleanse, despite very strict restrictions. In addition to the healing infusion, these days you can use a small amount of one, sometimes two products. The most effective methods are considered to be such tea with dried fruits, milk, grapefruits, apples, cottage cheese, eggs or honey. To achieve maximum cleansing, it is useful to spend a fasting day only on tea and water.
Unloading with such a limited diet, or rather, with its complete absence as such, is quite heavy, and can also be considered starvation, since nothing can be consumed besides water and unsweetened green tea. But if health and endurance allows, then in one such fasting day you can lose a couple of kilograms (albeit mainly due to cleansing the intestines and getting rid of excess fluid), and also give the body an opportunity to rest from digesting food in order to establish its work.
For the correct conduct of the fasting day, the following recommendations must be observed:
- tea should be drunk warm, brewing a new portion before each use - a small spoonful of dry leaves in a glass of slightly cooled boiling water;
- the infusion is consumed in any quantity alternately with clean water;
- the diuretic effect should be taken into account, therefore it is necessary to ensure the possibility of going to the toilet.
Due to the unique properties of green tea, even one fasting day is enough to start the process of burning fat. At the same time, it is not allowed to carry out such fasting in the presence of problems with the gastrointestinal tract, otherwise the disease may worsen.
In such cases, you can choose a softer unloading for 3 days, for example, with dried fruits or milk. But, if there are any diseases, any dietary restriction should be applied only after consulting a doctor.
Eating dried fruit or milk makes unloading more comfortable, but also requires willpower. This diet can be carried out 3 days in a row, but no more than twice a month. In addition, it is recommended to use it as part of a gentle weight loss system as fasting days.
In addition to tea drink and water, with such a diet, it is allowed to use:
- dried apricots;
- raisin;
- dried apples, pears;
- other dried fruits, except dates.
The total weight of the entire dryer should be 100 grams, which should be divided into 5 equal servings and eaten in place of your traditional meals. Tea and water are consumed 30 minutes before and after meals. During the day, you need to drink 1.5 liters of the drink, as well as 1.5 liters of clean water. After the end of the three-day course, it is recommended to drink at least 1 liter of green tea daily. This will prolong the fat burning process and will also help maintain the results obtained. For those who do not like dried fruits, you can use green tea with milk instead.
A very popular diet today, in which it is allowed to drink only milk and green tea, really gives quick results in weight loss - in 3 days you can get rid of 2-2.5 extra pounds, however, by cleansing and removing fluid. The main thing is that this technique starts the process of burning fat, which, with proper further nutrition, helps to effectively lose weight even without strict diets.
The rules are quite simple - you should drink 2 liters of milk tea and 2 liters of clean water per day at regular intervals. The drink can be prepared in two ways:
- tea leaves (3 tablespoons) are added to the boiled, slightly cooled milk (2 l), infused for 10 minutes, then the finished infusion is filtered;
- The tea leaves are prepared in water (a teaspoon of raw materials per glass of slightly cooled boiling water, infused for a couple of minutes), and then 50 ml of milk is added.
When using the second method, you need to drink two glasses of skim milk separately per day.
- drink a glass of infusion every hour;
- during breaks, drink water - also a glass every hour.
In addition to weight loss and cleansing, a diet on milk and green tea has a preventive effect, preventing the development of atherosclerosis, dysbiosis, periodontal disease, improving the functioning of the heart, blood vessels, endocrine and digestive systems.
This weight loss option is useful if necessary:
- urgently "fit" into your favorite dress;
- cleanse after a plentiful feast;
- arrange unloading for the body;
- cleanse the liver;
- speed up metabolism.
Green tea with milk contains a large amount of nutrients, which prevents the body from experiencing a lack of them, and also dulls the feelings of hunger. If drinking milk is unsuitable for personal preference or for health (for example, if you are lactose intolerant), you can easily replace it with a diet of green tea with grapefruit.
Combining grapefruit with green tea has a truly fat-killing effect. Both products are champions in the "ability" to burn fat, so their combined use allows you to get rid of extra pounds as quickly as possible. Since the grapefruit green tea diet is very strict, you can stick to it for no more than 3 days, but this is for the hardiest. It is still better to arrange unloading in 1-2 days.
The principle of nutrition is very simple. In one day you need:
- consume 5 grapefruits, dividing them in half;
- drink 10 glasses of green drink;
- drink 1.5 liters of clean water.
Thus, every hour you need to eat half of the citrus with a glass of freshly prepared infusion. The advantages of such a system are that, along with cleansing, the body receives a large amount of useful substances - antioxidants, pectin, vitamins, minerals. In this case, you can get rid of puffiness and 1-3 kg of excess weight. If you are allergic to citrus fruits or dislike grapefruit, you can try a different diet that allows for the use of honey.
The advantages of a drink made from tea leaves with the addition of honey are quite obvious, since these two products are unique in their beneficial properties. Honey tea infusion, taken for 1-2 days, is able to cleanse the body, remove excess fluid from it, and also provide adequate nutrition for cells due to a variety of vitamin and mineral complex that is part of it.
Thanks to the properties of green tea and the sweetness of honey, the feeling of hunger is not felt very much. Wherein:
- heat exchange is accelerated;
- metabolism accelerates;
- the aging process is inhibited;
- the nervous system is gently calmed.
The diet is effective (minus 1 kg per day), good for the brain, since it provides the glucose it needs, and promotes a good mood. Unfortunately, many people are allergic to honey, which precludes the possibility of such discharge. But the diet on apples and green tea does not have such contraindications - it can be used, even with problems with the gastrointestinal tract, only in this case, sweet apples should be consumed.
Apple diets are considered a classic version of fasting days for cleansing for weight loss. The combination of apples with green tea gives a faster result, increases the efficiency of unloading and makes it more comfortable. At the same time, an optimal reduction in body weight is achieved with minimal damage to the body.
The essence of such a diet boils down to the fact that you need to drink infusion of green tea leaves and eat only apples in unlimited quantities. A prerequisite is at least 2 liters of clean water per day.
The peculiarity of this diet is that it can be adhered to for 7 days, if you have enough patience and endurance. In this case, apples should be eaten in the following quantities:
- 1st day - 1000 g;
- 2nd day - 1000 g;
- 3-4 days - 2000 g each;
- 5-6 days - 1500 g each;
- 7 day - 1000 g.
You can drink tea and water as much as you want, but not less than 1.5 liters of both. At the same time, green infusion helps not only to lose weight, but also to reduce the feeling of hunger, which is usually exacerbated by eating apples. If losing weight on apples seems too "hungry", which causes discomfort, you can equally effectively lose weight on the mildest of all strict green tea diets - egg and curd.
Representatives of show business often turn to this method of fast weight loss with unloading, therefore it is often called the "model diet". The diet consists of only three products - an egg, cottage cheese, green tea, but they provide the body with the necessary minimum of useful and nutritious substances. It is recommended to adhere to such a diet for no more than 3 days, during which you can lose up to 3 extra pounds.
In accordance with the rules, you must adhere to five meals a day with the following menu:
- breakfast - a soft-boiled egg, a glass of tea;
- second breakfast - 100 g of cottage cheese, a glass of tea;
- lunch - a soft-boiled egg, 100 g of cottage cheese, a glass of tea;
- afternoon tea - a soft-boiled egg, a glass of tea;
- dinner - 100 g of cottage cheese, a glass of tea.
Such a diet is suitable even for chronic ulcers (only when the disease is in remission!). It is moderately strict, very effective, but it is not recommended for use more than once a month. If you need to lose more excess weight with guaranteed long-term results, it is better to resort to longer, sparing diets.
Gentle green tea slimming techniques are not so much about diets as they are about nutrition systems. They usually last for a few days, but can last much longer. The result of weight loss with such diets is not just high, but stable and long-lasting. At the same time, adequate nutrition is provided with the presence of all the necessary nutrients. The most common of these are cereals and green tea diets.
Techniques for losing weight on porridge are popular due to their simplicity, cheapness and effectiveness. Especially often, many losing weight use buckwheat or rice for their own purposes.
Buckwheat diet on green tea is designed for 7 days, during which you can get rid of 5-7 extra pounds. At the same time, there is no need to sit only on buckwheat - all fruits are allowed, with the exception of bananas, as well as low-fat kefir. Meals should be three times a day in compliance with the following diet:
- in the morning - buckwheat porridge, 100 g of fruit, a glass of kefir;
- for lunch - buckwheat porridge, 100 g of fruit, a glass of kefir;
- in the evening - buckwheat porridge, a glass of kefir.
Porridge can be eaten in any quantity, but it is prepared in a special way - it is steamed overnight in a ratio of 1: 2 (a glass of cereal is filled with 2 glasses of boiling water). It is also necessary to drink green tea between meals - 1.5 liters per day - and the same amount of pure water. You need to have dinner no later than 4 hours before bedtime. A three-day buckwheat diet is based on the same principle, but fruits are completely removed from the diet. This option is unloading. It is more strict, so in 3 days it is also possible to lose about 5 kg, but more due to the excretion of fluid.
Cleansing for weight loss on rice is already becoming almost a universal way to get rid of all health or weight problems. But it is the combination of rice with green tea that has special properties. The so-called "Geisha Diet" is the result of extensive research into Japanese cuisine.
Rice and green tea are invariable components of the diet of Japanese geisha, which are famous for their ideal figure, smooth healthy skin, thick silky hair, and they keep all this until a ripe old age.
The method of losing weight on rice and green tea is designed for 6 days, during which you can lose up to 8 kilograms of excess weight. To achieve the greatest effect, it is recommended to take two courses with a ten-day break.
The first day is preparatory. You should switch to light vegetable soups with a small amount of rice and up to 1 liter of green tea per day. From the second to the sixth day, you need to adhere to the following menu:
- 7: 00–8: 00 - two glasses of milk tea, prepared by brewing green tea with a mixture of water and milk (1: 1);
- 12: 00-13: 00 - 100 g of rice cooked in water, a glass of skim milk;
- 17: 00-18: 00 - 100 g of the same rice, a glass of milk tea, prepared according to the above recipe.
Many supporters of this method of losing weight believe that any kind of rice is suitable for it, but the original geisha diet suggests eating only brown rice. If there is no such rice, you can try to cook ordinary rice or turn to other methods of losing weight on green tea - as gentle and useful as possible.
In addition to all the described diets based on the use of green tea, there are not only effective, but also the most healthy food systems, which are distinguished by a complete and very varied diet. They are usually designed for 2-4 weeks, but if desired, they can be repeated several times with a short break or without it. In this case, only two conditions should be met:
- exclude all junk food from the diet;
- drink at least 1.5 liters of green tea per day.
Such diets can also be roughly divided into two types - relatively strict and gentle. The first option requires you to eat according to a special diet, the second is more free when choosing a menu.
This method of losing weight allows you to get rid of 4-5 kg in two weeks, and without hunger and discomfort. Recommended menu:
- in the morning half an hour before breakfast - tea;
- breakfast - biscuits or rye croutons;
- after 45-60 minutes - tea;
- lunch - scrambled eggs, toast;
- after 45-60 minutes - tea;
- lunch - vegetable stew, 150 g of boiled lean meat;
- after 45-60 minutes - tea;
- afternoon tea - fruits;
- after 45-60 minutes - tea;
- dinner - a portion of buckwheat or rice porridge in water, 150 g of chicken breast;
- after 45-60 minutes - tea.
Do not add salt, sugar, fat to dishes, a little honey is allowed. Potatoes and bananas are also excluded. If this diet seems too tough, you can lose the same 4-5 kilograms, but not in 14 days, but in a month, but this will practically not affect the diet.
The food system designed for losing weight on green tea in 30 days does not strictly establish a diet or menu, but, in addition to general, requires compliance with several other rules:
- meals should be six meals a day, portions - small, as well as the amount of tea drunk at a time - no more than 100 ml;
- any liquid should be drunk half an hour before or after a meal; you should not drink tea, water or other drinks with food;
- all dishes should be boiled, stewed or baked with a minimum heat treatment time, if possible - raw;
- fruits or dried fruits can be in small quantities, it is better to exclude too sweet or starchy;
- salt should not be added during cooking, but a little salt should be added to the already prepared dish.
Thus, such a diet is a complete system of healthy nutrition with the only difference that its diet necessarily includes 1.5-2 liters of green tea, which must be drunk between main meals. It is designed for a month - this is the minimum period for which you can achieve visible results. If such a nutritional system is made a way of life, then excess weight will never appear, and the body will always be clean and healthy.
The unique properties of green tea make it a very effective addition to any weight loss system, and not only as a stand-alone remedy, but also as a drink with which you can use the beneficial properties of other products.

You should also pay attention to the color of the tea leaf - the lighter it is, the better.

In this case, it is imperative to take into account the presence of contraindications or possible harm to the body.

Marina, 27 years old, Moscow
I am a big fan of green tea, so I drink it regularly, and I go on a diet once a month to cleanse my body. I manage to maintain a stable weight without problems, I think tea really helps - I use it with lemon, ginger, and honey. For unloading, I make milk tea and sit on it for 1-2 days - the result is excellent. And this is not only my opinion, but also the reviews of many of my friends, for whom green tea with milk helps to be slim and fit, even if you allow yourself some culinary excesses.

I never thought that you can lose weight on green tea. I do not really understand its taste, as I am more interested in coffee. My favorite "slimmers" - on buckwheat and rice. From time to time I sit on them, especially after winter or before vacation. The last time I tried to combine my usual diet with drinking such a drink, and also included one-day unloading on tea and water. Instead of 4 kg, which had gone before, we managed to lose almost 7 kg. I'm sure it's thanks to the tea. Now I drink it every day, so that after the end of the diet, the previous kilograms do not return.
Ksenia, 21 years old, Irkutsk
I use a diet on green tea and kefir when I urgently need to lose weight and lose a couple of kilograms before an event, as well as after it (if the meal was too plentiful). The result is excellent - the weight goes away a little, but the volumes decrease, even if due to the loss of fluid, but I can fit into the dress! And the next day, the skin looks very good, which is also important for such cases.

Doctors have long paid attention to its healing properties: the ability to remove toxins and excess water from the body. It is often offered to people looking to lose weight quickly.
Firstly, tea promotes better absorption of milk by the body, which is important for people with gastrointestinal problems. The tannin in tea envelops the stomach lining, making it less susceptible to negative milk fermentation processes. And milk, in turn, neutralizes the effects of caffeine.
This drink is also considered an excellent prophylactic agent for heart and kidney diseases. But in the latter case, it is imperative to consult a doctor, since this drink has diuretic properties. Therefore, it is not recommended to spend more than one such fasting day per week. It is for this reason that it helps well in the fight against edema.
- Tea itself contains many antioxidants (aromatic and polyphenolic compounds) that destroy free radicals, cleanse the body of heavy metal salts, toxins, and fight aging.
- There are no calories in it, so you can drink several cups a day of this drink.
- Tea fills the body with vitamins B, C, PP, K. It contains a lot of phosphorus, copper, zinc, manganese.
- They speed up the metabolism and burn excess fat in the cells.
- It suppresses appetite mildly. Just one cup and you can go for a couple of hours without snacking.

Diet and menu options
The green tea diet has various options. The shortest-term technique is a regular fasting day on green tea. The drink itself is non-calorie, so if you drink it in its pure form without additives, you get an ordinary hunger strike. To withstand it during the day, you will have to enlist the support of your own willpower. For a day, you will need to prepare 1.5-2 liters of a drink, and you can brew the entire volume at once or do it in portions.
If you add additional ingredients to tea, then the calorie content will increase. For example, a spoonful of honey will add 58 calories, milk - about 9, lemon - 16, ginger - 30. Considering that the daily requirement is 1200-1500 calories, these supplements are harmless. You should not use only sugar, despite its lower calorie content compared to honey.
Important! During the fasting day, you need to drink at least 1.5 liters of pure water, in addition to tea, since it has a diuretic effect, and it is necessary to restore the fluid balance in the body.
Three-day unloading
Drinking green tea for three days and not eating anything is not a good idea. Even if one manages to endure such a hunger strike psychologically, problems with physical condition and health may arise. If you need to stretch the unloading for 3 days, then it is better to add an additional ingredient to the drink.
For example, you can drink green tea with dried fruits. They have a low calorie content, but they will satisfy hunger and become a substitute for the usual sweets. For every day you need to prepare 1.5-2 liters of tea, 1.5 liters of pure water and 100 g of prunes or dried apricots. It is desirable to divide all this amount into 5-6 receptions at regular intervals.
Another option for a three-day unloading on an imperial drink is in combination with grapefruits. These citruses have long been used by those who are losing weight in various diets. For every day, 2 liters of green tea without additives, 1.5 liters of clean water without gas and 5 grapefruits are prepared. As with dried fruits, all cooked foods are divided into several steps.
Weekly weight loss
Diets designed for 7 days are gentle or otherwise balanced, since eating green tea alone for a week, although real, is fraught with serious consequences for the body.
The first menu option is not balanced in nutritional components, but it allows you to significantly lose weight without feeling hungry. To get rid of extra pounds, you need to drink 1.5-2 liters of tea every day for a week and eat 1-1.5 kg of apples, preferably green ones. They can be eaten fresh, but in this case there is a possibility of harm to the tooth enamel and intestines. To avoid this, it is best to bake the fruit in the oven.
A more balanced version of the weekly diet:
- breakfast - a cup of green tea;
- second breakfast - a cup of green tea and a couple of dietary crispbreads or whole grain croutons;
- lunch - a cup of green tea, and 10-15 minutes after it, low-fat soup with skinless chicken and vegetables;
- afternoon tea - a cup of green tea and an apple, pear and orange salad with low-fat kefir;
- dinner - a cup of green tea, and 10-15 minutes after it, stewed vegetables, except potatoes, and a piece of boiled or steamed fish;
The drink should be drunk before meals in order to moderate your own appetite and not eat more than necessary. Serving sizes are sized to satisfy hunger without overeating. All additional dishes are prepared without salt and sugar, and there should be no additional additives to tea either. Optionally, you can add only a slice of lemon to the drink.
Two-week technique
As with other methods, for a diet designed for 2 weeks, you need to prepare 1.5-2 liters of tea per day. You cannot add additional ingredients to the drink, and it is advisable to drink it an hour before a meal and an hour after it. The menu for all 14 days looks like this:
- breakfast - a cup of green tea (half an hour after waking up);
- second breakfast - a cup of green tea and a couple of dietary crispbread or brown bread croutons with slices of low-fat hard cheese;
- lunch - vegetable soup with chicken broth or vegetable stew, a slice of boiled chicken without skin, fat, salt and spices;
- afternoon tea - an apple or orange or freshly squeezed juice from them without sugar;
- dinner - 100 g of buckwheat steamed with boiling water and boiled fish fillets or seafood stewed without preliminary frying;
- the second dinner is a cup of green tea.
Such a menu does not allow you to go hungry, since it contains chicken and fish. The body receives the necessary nutrients, so weight loss goes without harm to health. Thanks to the protein content, the muscles do not become flabby.
