Tea is the answer!

If you want to take off those pounds and keep them off then this book is for you! For the past 25 years I've had jasmine green tea several times a day. Until Dr. Tea's book came out I never made the connection between my tea comsumption and the consistent numbers which always come up on my scales. It was a lightbulb moment for me; I never realized that weight loss and my consistent weight were as simple as having a cup of tea. Dr. Tea offers some of the best teas I've ever tasted such as Caramel(my favourite next to jasmine), gingerbread and apple pie. Next time you feel the urge for a desert, have one of these teas instead - you'll be pleasantly surprised at how a cup of tea can satifsy your craving for that desert. The recipes in his book are new and delicious! The tea rubs are an excellent way to not only add flavour, but also get that extra bit of tea in your system. Next time you think you've tried everything to lose and maintain your weight, give The Ultimate Tea Diet a go - I'm speaking from 25 years of tea experience and it has definitely worked for me!

Thank you Dr Tea

What a great book! Imagine, making tea fun!! I love this book....nothing boring here. I keep hearing so much lately about tea....now I know why. The Ultimate Tea Diet tells you everything you need to know about tea .....how to brew the perfect cup of tea, how to make unbelievably delicous tea shakes, how to cook with tea, and so much more. While I quickly jumped forward to the diet chapters, I found myself working my way back to earlier chapters....which were very interesting. I now start each day with green tea, and substitute my snacking with green tea, or frosteas (CappuTeano and mint chocolate chip ice cream my favorites). I'm losing weight AND inches....It's only been three weeks, but I can almost wear my "skinny" jeans again! Be sure to check out all the "craving teas" Dr. Tea talks about....that's the fun part. FYI, the Ultimate Tea Diet website offers all of Dr Tea's craving teas, which makes the diet easy. Thank you Dr Tea!

A review for the Guys

Like most men, "tea" wasn't in my vocabulary. My fiancée got this book for "US" so we can look our best for our wedding this spring. To make her happy, we read the Ultimate TEA Diet together at night. It did not take long before I realized I was actually learning something of value from this guy and that there may be some common sense to his diet approach. Fair or not, I have lost more weight initially than my fiancée, but we have enjoyed the process together and talk about new teas we try each day. I previously drank a lot of coffee (4-6 cups daily) and sticking to the black and oolong teas initially helped me get past the headaches friends warned me about. The book is informational and gives you a new outlook towards caffeine, acid and your bodies Ph. Full of recipes; rather than a diet, we are beginning some lifestyle changes that even a "meat and potatoes" guy like myself can enjoy. Pleasantly surprised - enjoy the book!

a great and easy way to lose weight quickly

I have read this book and found it to be totally fascinating and informative. I have already started the diet and have started shedding pounds but more importantly inches! It's great... they are just melting away. Plus I have more energy and feel great. I bought some of the craving teas on line and love the way they taste. I have a real sweet tooth and they have really helped me stay away from my daily dose of candy and ice cream. If you want to lose weight and feel great, you have to read this book and try the diet. I'm telling you ....it really works:)

Move over boring diet books!

I had seen this guy on tv over the holidays and thought I would track down his book. I didn't go far as it is everywhere. Amazing how something as common as tea and smart dining choices can help your metabolism and really give you back energy. Hat's off to "Dr. Tea" for pointing out what has been right in front of us. Tea!
