Green Tea has been shown in numerous studies to boost metabolism, which can assist in fat loss. If people just neck lots of green tea, continue to train and eat poorly then there will be negligible results, but to assist in an already successful cut / fat loss it is useful.

How did you like the Green Tea?

I squirt lemon juice in my lemon flavoured tea, that's the only thing that makes it bearable for me!!

Plus I read the other day it's beneficial to have it with lemon juice (something about cachetins)

There are numerous studies to show green tea, and other natural fat burners such as white tea or oolong tea have fat burning effects. I don't think it makes a difference on whether they're flavoured or not.

You can also drink cold :-)

A lot of web sites claim it does though? Some of them are independant as well as opposed to companies selling them.

Might have a look for some studies

Green tea has next to no noticable benefits with regards to weight loss.

Green tea contains catechins which is thought to have some health benefits, and help weight loss. It is a stronger antioxidant than black tea. You could include a green tea drink midday and midafternoon. If you don't want the drinks you could have green tea extract in capsule form. The flavoured teas are quite nice if you don't like the flavour of normal green tea.
