9. Black tea
Black tea is full of vitamins and minerals that are different from those in green and white teas. But, like green tea and white tea, it can help you lose weight. Black tea has a lot of flavonoids, also called polyphenols, which are antioxidants that are good for your health and can help you lose weight. The polyphenols in black tea also help the gut make short-chain fatty acids, which have been shown to speed up metabolism.
A recent study found that black tea helps with blood sugar levels and weight loss. Researchers have found that drinking both coffee and tea makes you less likely to get type II diabetes. Drinking at least three cups of tea or coffee daily can cut the risk of type II diabetes by 42%.
