Default Green Tea?

I know that green tea is great for you...Just wondering if you would count it as part of your daily water intake.

Thanks
Amy G

Hi, Amy. Most of us count our water separate. We have 2 challenges, one to drink a gallon of water a day, and one that is a tea thread, Just Brew It. Come and visit us.

Hi Amy, Dr A said in the version of the book that I have that you can count green tea as up to HALF of your water intake. So if you are supposed to drink 100 ounces of water a day, you can do up to 50 ounces of it as green tea... you can drink more green tea than that, but you can't count more of it than that... Clear as mud?

I've read in some books that you can count all 0 calorie, 0 carb beverages as your water. Others say you can't, and then some say count half. Now if THAT isn't confusing, I don't know what is.
