Green Tea is a great way to enrich your fiber diet. Green tea comes from an eastern Asian shrub that has leathery, green leaves with beautiful, fragrant flowers. When the leaves of this shrub are dried and cured, the result is green tea. Several scientific studies have shown that green tea helps to increase your metabolism and therefore helps to burn calories faster and more efficient. For more than 4,000 years, people in Asia have already enjoyed the flavor and health benefits of green tea, which has now become a number one choice for people in other countries. Green tea is also mentioned as beneficial when it comes to treatments that range from controlling headaches to preventing some forms of cancer.

A while ago I started experimenting with green tea. I was sick of coffee and the bitter after-taste it has. Maybe I am becoming more sensitive to the taste, but I wanted something that a) tastes smooth, b) has some caffeine in it and c) comes in different varieties so that I could drink it during summer and winter. My wife suggested green tea and that’s where I ended up. You can almost call me a green tea junkie. Through-out the day I enjoy several cups of green tea. I always try something different – especially when I see a positive effect to my fiber 35 diet. The green PowerTea was recommended to us by a friend of my wife. She is in her upper 30s and has 3 wonderful children. You would not believe that our friend has given birth to 3 kids – she has been able to manage her body weight and has the body of a 25 year old athlete (almost I’d say). Her “ secrets” are daily exercise and a fair mix of a good fiber diet and even this powertea. She left us some to try it out and after 10 days we could not believe the results. We had not changed anything in our diet or exercise and I had lost another 2 lbs.

I am sold on that stuff now. I know I am able to better keep my weight and lose some of those stubborn last pounds of belly fat (that really bothers me) now. Summer is coming up fast here and so I will be in great shape for the beach. By the way – this stuff has been mentioned on several TV shows. Check it out here.

Being healthy is a goal of almost everyone, and high fiber foods that are low in calories are a great way to achieve good health. A diet that is based on the intake of foods high in fiber should consider to include oatmeal or other fiber cereals to start their day. Oatmeal has a great amount of dietary fiber that will help the digestive system. This dietary fiber helps to cleanse the body quickly after food is eaten. There are a lot of other awesome cereals available at the grocery stores that meet the criteria for a high fiber, low calorie food diet. The box labels on these products will show you the exact nutricious content so that you can easily choose one that will be rich in fiber and without many calories (especially coming from sugar).
