Therefore, you should take your green tea at least two hours before or after your meals. Green tea promotes weight loss in two ways: by boosting the body's metabolism and by inhibiting the absorption of fat. If you want to use green tea to lose weight, you can take it along with your meals.

Green tea can increase stomach acidity in people who have this tendency. It is taken between meals for its antioxidant properties and along with meals for its weight loss properties.
