I do agree that some of the herbs in here do have the potential to help with health and possibly weight loss. The impacts are unlikely to be dramatic but they could be relevant in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise.

As you note though, it is a fairly expensive option. For the most part, you could get similar benefits with tea and a few herbs and spices, such as ginger and cinnamon. Personally, I prefer doing that, as at least you would know exactly what you were drinking.

I believe that you can only get the tea online and most of the price seems to be associated with the hype and marketing, rather than the quality of the product.

Now, some of the herbs in there could help with weight loss. Nevertheless, it would only ever be effective in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. Likewise, the effects are not likely to be incredibly dramatic.

It sounds like a healthy beverage. I know people are always looking for different ways to lose weight. My hope would be they can drink this Fit Tea and exercise as well. I haven’t been much of a tea drinker, but would love to try Fit Tea. It seems a little pricey from what I can see. Is this product sold in store or can it only be ordered online?
Thank you,
Caryn

Great site and an absolutely extremely well detailed comprehensive review. Being fairly knowledgable and well self educated about herbs and spices I actually err on the side of saying that this product can help with weight loss but not on its own.

It contains the right ingredients to burn fat and give the endocrine system a nice push in the right direction but it does seem to be fairly pricey considering it is not all that difficult to go and make yourself! It is just really green tea with ginger and few other things added – nothing magical or special about that (or difficult to make!).

I can see fit tea being handy for busy people or those that want to drink that tea in the office far easier and more convenient in those circumstances just to buy it ready made.

I know other people that have found similar outcomes to you. Realistically, relying on products like Fit Tea, weight loss pill or anything similar isn’t going to work. At the very best, doing so could contribute to short-term weight loss. But, it does nothing at all for helping you keep that weight off.

Besides, most products, including Fit Tea are unlikely to even help with short-term weight loss.

Realistically, even if Fit Tea does offer benefits, you would get the same advantages (if not more) from green tea itself. For that matter, it seems likely that any benefits from Fit Tea are simply connected to drinking tea in general, rather than anything specific to Fit Tea.

Wow! This is a pretty in depth article! Right out of the box, Fit Tea wouldn’t be a good choice for me because of the stevia. My body does not tolerate stevia very well at all, and I have tried several brands and several forms, all of which have had the same outcome. In your post, you mentioned,

“Instead, decreasing the amount of processed food you eat and turning to whole and healthy food instead can be much more powerful.”

I agree with this statement a 100%. I have lost over a 100 pounds by doing this, and I have kept it off for 3 years, now. I haven’t taken any diet pills or weight loss drinks, and I have had no surgery. It’s been purely on cutting out processed foods and turning to whole, healthy food.

I do drink herbal teas–just not weight loss teas. 🙂
Kathy

Having been a long time green tea drinker and knowing the benefits it brings along. I would say Fit Tea would have a hard time convincing me to become a drinker and supporter of it.

A lot of weight loss has to do with diet and exercise, even though green tea is supposed to help with that, nothing will happen unless we first change our lifestyle.

Green tea is certainly a better choice and it has a much longer history behind it. That would be my choice too. Plus, at the end of the day, no tea is going to be a miracle when it comes to weight loss. It may help a little but that’s about it.

Individually the components of this tea may well offer health benefits but in most cases, there is relatively little evidence for those benefits. In many ways, you’re taking a bunch of herbs with the hope that some of them offer benefits. That practice may well work but it’s questionable, especially as the long-term health implications aren’t clear.
