Sabrina Carpenter joins countless others in embracing a nutrient-rich green drink brimming with wellness advantages. The star has publicly shared her passion for a particular morning beverage that has become part of her daily routine.

The ‘Manchild’ singer reportedly swears by a hot drink that can be easily prepared at home. Green tea is touted to be one of the healthiest beverages on the planet, with experts suggesting that it could have many potential health benefits.

Speaking in a clip with ELLE, Sabrina said: “There’s so many healthy benefits of drinking green tea.” She’s right, too – there is evidence to suggest that green tea can help prevent flu, reduce your blood sugar and even help heart health.

The beverage also enhances circulation, delivers a natural energy boost and is recognised for its anti-inflammatory properties. Evidence also exists suggesting that consuming green tea could support cognitive function, emotional wellbeing, and mental performance.

This may be attributed to components found in green tea such as caffeine and L-theanine. Healthline reports that a 2020 review found that green tea may help reduce blood sugar while fasting in the short term.

Green tea additionally contains polyphenols, antioxidants offering anti-viral and anti-inflammatory advantages. Research has demonstrated that the polyphenol epigallocatechin gallate found in green tea possesses antiviral properties, which could prove useful when battling cold and flu symptoms.

A further recent examination of studies indicates that regular green tea consumption might reduce various cardiovascular disease risk factors, including blood pressure and lipid levels. Several studies suggest that green tea could aid in weight loss.

A 2022 study discovered that consuming four or more cups of green tea daily was associated with a 44% reduced risk of abdominal obesity, but this effect was only significant in women.

However, it appears that green tea does not alter your hunger and satiety hormones, which are crucial for controlling your appetite. The evidence on green tea’s impact on weight loss is also mixed.

While the studies on green tea are promising, they are not a miraculous solution for weight loss. Maintaining a healthy weight requires a balanced diet, regular exercise, plenty of water, limited alcohol, and quitting smoking.
