Can Drinking Tea (of All Things) Really Help You Lose Weight? Is There Really a Relationship Between Drinking Certain Tea & Losing Weight? Could the Real Secret to Weight Loss Be Something as Simple as Tea? By Elizabeth (Liz) Swann Miller There I was standing in the wilds of Africa with a massive, red, venomous snake looking right at me and a single thought racing through my mind –“why in the world did I risk my life for this cup of tea?” The truth is I was looking for what I considered to be the weight loss “holy grail” - a tea that legend claimed completely erased hunger pangs.
