Kung Fu Star Lends Name To Green Tea Product
Jackie Chan say drink green tea good for you when low-carb
I love introducing you to new products that can fit well within your low-carb lifestyle because there is so much garbage out there to go through. That's why I am always scoping out the latest and the greatest as they are introduced to the marketplace and reporting back to you what I find. Some are good, others are not so good.
What I found today is an excellent product for people living healthy. It's a highly-concentrated vitamin-packed green tea product called InstaGreen Tea Beverage Mix. We have all heard the benefits of drinking more green tea for the antioxidant properties it provides our bodies. This particular product has EIGHT TIMES the antioxidants of regular green tea. WHOA! That's a LOT!
It's all because of the full 100mg of EGCG that is contained within each serving. Plus, you also get 300mg of polyphenols in each glass of InstaGreen. In fact, drinking just one cup of this instant green tea product is equivalent to drinking EIGHT cups of regular green tea. See what I mean--this green tea product really packs a powerful punch!
Each package of InstaGreen Tea Beverage Mix contains 15 individual servings that you can mix with 8-16 ounces of hot or cold water, depending on your personal preference (I LOVE it hot, baby!). The best part of the InstaGreen product is it is NATURALLY SUGAR-FREE and contains ZERO CALORIES.
What about the caffeine content, you ask? Good question--it's less than 45mg.
InstaGreen Tea Beverage Mix comes in the original unsweetened Green Tea flavor as well as Natural Lemon with Stevia and Natural Raspberry with Stevia. For those of you who are new to livin' la vida low-carb, stevia is a plant-based supplement that adds sweetness to foods and drinks. It provides just enough of that to allow you to enjoy the vibrant flavor of the green tea.
So, what's all of this have to do with Jackie Chan? Yes, THAT Jackie Chan from all the kung fu movies and Hollywood star of such movie hits as "Rush Hour." If anyone can tell you what's good green tea, then I suppose Jackie Chan is very well qualified since he comes from China where green tea has been a mainstay for centuries.
But not only does Jackie Chan simply LIKE InstaGreen Tea Beverage Mix, but he is now their spokesperson and his smiling image appears right there on the packaging. With an endorsement like that, you KNOW this has got to be good. So, go ahead and give it a try. Let me know what YOU think about it if you decide to try it.

The product sounds wonderful, and I adore Jackie Chan!! I'll have to give this a try - thanks, Jimmy!
I spoke to him a few months ago in Hong Kong, purely incidental. We both had green tea in the restaurant. Like most Chinese (and most Asians) they drink lots of green tea with every meal. In Japan, the saying goes: "Where tea grows, good health follows". The so-called Oolong variety is also widely available as a sugar-free softdrink all over Asia/Pacific. There are some interesting varieties of tea-based beverages imported from Taiwan and Japan. the "President" and "Zest-o" brands are a few of them that may be available in the US as well. The latter (from the Philippines) carries a whole range of sugar-free beverages. Comes in 300ml cans, and 350ml plastic bottles.
