Answers:
Green tea helps for allot of things
but make sure that you get a good quality one

I have found that it is best to go to a Chines grocery store
they carry many different kinds from mild to strong
they can help you to get the flavour you are looking for!.

because of the tannins There are an anti-inflammatory so putting a cold wet tea bag on your eyes will help with puffiness

All tea leaves contain caffeine
green tea has a lower amount of it
it also contains tannins, essential oils, poly phenols, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements
it has many health benefits!.
it increases metabolism (helps you lose weight)
anti-inflammatory
lowers blood cholesterol levels
has a beneficial effect on the circulation and liver
protects against tooth decay
detoxifies the blood

according to scientific studies, compounds called poly phenols in green tea may inhibit the growth of cancer cells and the development of tumours!.
the benefit of these compounds is generally attributed to their antioxidant activity!.
several cups of green tea per day are needed to enjoy this benefit

if you are giving up coffee or certain soda's and you need help with caffeine withdrawal switch to green tea
cup for cup
once you are only drinking green tea you can start to lower the amount that you are drinking it is easier to stop drinking green tea than it is the otherWww@Answer-Health@Com

All yes!.
First is, tea works best if you make it yourself!. The thing is, the chemical in the tea start to break down as soon as they are exposed to water, and light break them down even faster!.
So the bottle stuff, is not going to help much!.
The reason it helped you and helps alot of people is that it substitutes for soda and juices with sugar, that is why you lost weight!.
But the antioxidant properties are not there!.
As for the tea bag to the eye thing, yes that works too, the warmth of the tea bag mobilizes the fluid in the area and as such decreases the swelling and puffiness!.
So Tea is the way of the future, make it yourself and keep your tea bags lolWww@Answer-Health@Com
