1. Green tea 2. Black tea 3. Decaff green tea with ginseng (ginseng reduces inflammation) 4. Matcha green tea (couple it with Lion's mane, stimulates brain activity) 5. Chamomile tea, great for a long-term fast, before bed
First 25 years of my life I completely refused any tea. Then when I admitted I needed to quit soda, I decided to give hot green tea a try...and that's how it was for me too.
Oolong tea is my favourite. It's partially fermented so kind of actually half way between black and green tea. It has a lovely light flavour too. I definitely recommend it.
I love your videos, such great info backed up by real science and experience. I've been doing time restricted eating (5 hr window) for 2 years and my blood pressure dropped to normal (below 120/80) and got off my medication as well as losing weight. But you've really motivated me to try longer fasting as well.
Hi...will you share with me What type of green tea u take Am in weightloss journey ...right now consuming sachet green tea osk brand But some says better consume green tea in powder form as matcha than sachet or loose leaves Ppz guide me Thanks in advance Am in a proper diet and doing workout everyday Wana know which green tea helps weightloss
i always pay attention to Thomas coz i don't wanna miss any part. love how he explain with such simplicity and theres so much excitement to watch. thank you!
My favorite 2 teas are moringa and jiaogulan tea. Moringa gives you all the needed minerals, vitamins and aminoacids. Jiaogulan does A LOT of things, one of which is to boost your workout performance. Any idea if any of those two teas can be consumed while fasting?1
Great video again, Thomas! I would love to see a video where you ferment some veggies, especially broccoli and cauliflower. You talked about that in another video; however, I couldn’t find any proper step by step guide to doing this.
Started my first fast. Going for about 84 hours. Was in the middle of chamomile tea (plain). Got scared I was messing it up (the only other thing i had today was water and matcha, again plain). Glad it is ok. Great Video.
Oo what a lovely surprise to se Four Sigmatic on this video! I am from Finland as it this company and I know well these guys who made the company and the products. They're good guys with a mission to bring something good to the world. My cabin is FULL with their products :D I love these kinds of young entrepreneurs. We have many of those in the thriving superfood scene in Finland. Way to go! Well done Thomas!
I'm a huge fan of tea, be it black, green, or herbal. There are some yummy flavors out there right now that both smell and taste great, and let me indulge in something wicked without fearing that it will end up showing later on my stomach and thighs. Of course, it is wise to check the ingredients and not add a ton of calorie-laden stuff to it - I like to use stevia to sweeten mine.
Not a liquid fast, some ppl, have smoothies and soups on their fast. I live a life of fasting so its up to you. Listen to your body and modify or adjust for your needs
"I know that sounds bad, but it's good" - Should be your catchphrase :D Great video, thanks for the awesome content! Love tea so will definitely try it out!
Thank you for another great video, Thomas! I’m on Day 12 of my IF protocol and I’m thinking the Four Sigmatic Matcha Green Tea will really help when I️ enter Meta Phase 3 and have to fast for 18 hours. I️ just picked up some through your link. Thank you again and looking forward to your next video!
Oxidation is NOT the same as fermentation. Pu'erh tea is fermented, black tea is oxidized, green tea is neither. They are all different. Just a little FYI.
I just bought a Carmel flavored black tea by Bigelow. The ingredients have soy lecithin. Some people on Reddit are saying this will break a fast. Is that true? I love flavored teas because they help me extend my fast longer than I would if I just drank water. Thank you for any replies!
Im using a dandelion root and stinging nettle tea after my dry fast it feeds and nourishes the liver i drink the daily before bed time. The liver deserves them for all its hard work
Never drank coffee but love me some TEA! I have been reluctant to try Matcha thinking it would taste like hot grass water. But, you make the benefits very enticing. I'll give it a go.
I tried to use the link to foursigmatic multiples times but there wasn't a discount for your fans. Do you have a coupon code? I'm ready to order as soon as I figure this out.
I would say mate is totally ok since it's so similar to green tea in composition. Be careful not to drink too much of it though on an empty stomach, the chemicals that make it an appetite suppressant can give you an upset stomach
Earl Gray has Orange Oil in it, which you said in a diffrent video to stay away from teas with fruit? "Earl Grey tea is a tea blend which has been flavoured with the addition of oil of bergamot. Bergamot is a variety of orange that is often grown in Italy and France. The rind's fragrant oil is added to black tea to give Earl Grey its unique taste. "
My iridologist said caffeine is a not good thing, he suggested me to cut it, if I want to feel less stressed or anxious, because caffeine does not have more benefits than fruits, he said to take lemon or limes with warm water, to improve my disgestion and I can take with propolis as well. Thank you for suggest 🌼 tea!
You're sensitive to the caffeine and other chemicals in the tea. I had the same thing when I used to drink green tea. That's good though, it means you can listen to your own body and find which tea is best for you. Try mate
@@TheBeardedSandman Thanks man! I don't get the same with coffee though. I drink quite a lot of coffee in the morning, but green tea does give me headaches at time. Like you said I guess it is a bliss 😂 that the body is speaking up. BTW any particular tea you've found to be useful for yourself?
One of my favorite box Teas is Reishi Detox organic tea made by Choice Tea. So good! Best in my book! But I love making my own Teas from loose leaf teas & mix with herbs like thyme, spices like clove, flowers like hibiscus, & roots like burdock! I do like matcha (it's not a cheapy.) Never tried Lions Mane's, sounds great. I will see if my local health market carries it. Chamomile is very relaxing, I see why now.
I know this video is from 2018. But I was just looking up a video about the green matcha tea, to see if anyone combined them. I love my black/red tea a lot and I wanted to also drink green tea. But I chose to drink the black tea instead because I enjoy it more and kept pushing off the green tea. So today I wound up just adding a little bit of the green matcha tea into my black tea. But it is only a little bit, where it won't over relax me, and overpower my black tea. Getting both the health benefits from the black and green tea. I also add cloves and cinnamon to my tea. It's a wonderful combination and tastes great and is very healthy.
Hey Thomas, have you done some research on the pros and cons of these teas: oolong, pu erh, linden, yerba mate and lemongrass. Thank you for all your videos.
great info as always and i appreciate it alot! have a question...i LOVE mate' tea from south america....how would you compare it to matcha tea from japan? thanks alot!
Love your videos. They are new for me. I am learning sooo much. Green tea made with water 175 degrees is quite a bit easier on the stomach. Thank you for all the inspiration.
So the problem with Thomas is that you do not know what to trust. Now is Lion's mane what he says it is or is it because he is partnered with Four Sigmatic?
Thomas, big fan from Argentina over here. Please do a video about fasting and "yerba mate". I´ve been looking for studies to see if it breaks a fast or not, but I couldn´t find a definitive answer.
Hi Thomas, what about Rooibos tea, a favorite in South Africa. Oh and thank you for the videos, started a fasting program little over a week ago. I am down 5kg and 1.7% body fat...
Thomas, I am wondering if you could do a video about the possible side effects of intermittent fasting on health and how we could prevent them. Thank you in advance.
hey thomas, the thing is if you deliver any foods/drinks to the stomach with macro or micro nutrients, it will trigger metabolism in the stomach and that will halt the fast. alot of people aren't aware of this but both black coffee and tea both has micro nutrients. very small traces, not alot but it's in there. coffee has < 1g of carb, protein, b2, b5, potassium, niacin, magnesium, manganese. tea has theanine(amino acid), b2, c, e, beta-carotene, folic acid, calcium, phosphorus, manganese, and potassium. initially i thought those were acceptable liquids to consume during a fast but then found out i was just cheating myself. a true fast is nothing but water, don't even put salt. or if you wanna do a hardcore fast like the muslims during ramadan--nothing at all during day but you can have water at night and do that for a month.
Exactly. Anything that you swallow breaks your fast and temporarily disrupts the process of autophagy and mitophagy. Sipping body-temperature water [98.6°F (37°C)] interferes the least with the process of autophagy and mitophagy. If the goal is for your body to cannibalize cellular debris and dysfunctional cells and mitochondria (i.e. enter into a deep autophagic state), and you're not willing/able to do a "dry" fast (no food and no water), then the science shows that you should stick to sipping body-temperature water throughout the day.
@@joetheragman2076 So, you just automatically assume that there's no science behind my comment without doing the research for yourself. Do you know anything about autophagy? Do you know anything about mTOR? What do you know about hyper-sensitivity to leucine in metabolic hormonal signalling? How about you start by Googling the following study: "Regulation of autophagy by amino acids and MTOR-dependent signal transduction" and learn to STFU until you've done the research for yourself.
@@Mikenoronha ROTFL! Spare me your "if you can't dazzle them with smartness then dazzle them with bullshit" because that's exactly what you are doing here. You are a troll! and I do not get trolled by trolls! ROTFL!
+Thomas DeLauer I'm a massive fan, and your videos are really good at explaining the 'whys' of do (or not doing) stuff. I have been following a Keto Diet and combining it with intermittent fasting, and it seems to be working well, but do you have any videos explaining the best methods of GAINING bulk/muscle while on the Keto/IF diets? Is it simply a case of making sure that there is a calorie surplus at the end of the day while eating Keto-friendly? Thanks for your help in advance, and thanks for the videos!
I don't use sugar in my tea, I drink herbal teas. Right now my morning tea is a ginger, turmeric and peppermint blend that also has 2 tbs of acv. I do have some questions: Did you know that you can soak nuts in a salty water to remove the phytic acid? I love sunflower seeds, but I also love lots of nuts and seeds, but need to get the most from them.
Help!! I found a tea that I can totally drink without anything in it. But...I need help to see if they are Keto approved. I have searched to no end and I am not seeing anything about it. TEA: Red Rose- Blueberry muffin it has 0 everything with added stevia already in the packet. Thanks!
Hi M.Delauer. What you do is amazing, KEEP DOING IT. I have 1 simple question: When i fast i drink black coffee And Black tea. i didn't remember but it is actually black tea with a flavor of blueberry . I went back to the store where I bought it and seller actually told me that it was dry pieces of blueberry and that it has no problem with my fasting protocol. But I'm not real sure because if it is actual blueberry pieces that are dry will it kick me out of my fasting.because fruit contain calories and calories kick you out of fasting right so simple question will my black blueberry flavored tea kick me out of fasting. thank you very much for your time keep doing your amazing video. Ps: is there a type of chewing gum that you can chew while fasting that won't kicks you out of your fast that you are aware that exist because I'm a big gum chewer.
Don't overstress about it! It's just fine! It won't break your fast and it has veryy little to almost no calories for you to worry about. Maybe 0,001 calories lol. Btw, your fast breaks after 50 calories ingested
I'm a quadriplegic and detox teas really help me out greatly my bowel movements are twice the size all the bloating goes away in my stomach and I feel great
Will Matcha tea break my fast since there is a gram of fiber (5 calories ) per serving. I'd like to drink this more often. But I start my day with coffee, and I'd like some matcha in the afternoon but I don't want to break my fast. Would that gram of fiber break the fast?
If I fast the whole week the whole 5 days than but than Im not fasting for 2 days, whan the week reset than every time I will fast than stop for 2 days than fast one more time my body will not get use to it meaning that every time I start a week of fasting it will be jest as difcult as the first week of my fasting or is it not please answer me I really need to know ! and thanks for the vid
I think it really matters what you eat on those 2 days. I think if you eat a lot of sugar, fruit, and bread, it is going to be really much more difficult to go back. But if you focus on lots of vegetables, and non-sweet fruits like avocado, or peppers, then it won't be so hard.
Killer man. I’ve been trying to get better at doing intermittent fasting, I got outta it for a bit. And sadly have been having trouble getting back into the grind
Great video , but i recommend white tea over any regular green tea (not matcha) White tea goes through the least possible amount of processing, allowing it to retain many of its powerful antioxidant compounds. White tea has less caffeine than green tea. White tea is also believed to have slightly higher levels of polyphenols than green tea. Research has shown that this may give white tea an advantage over green tea as a cancer-preventing substance.
Attention please, Thomas DeLaur! May I please caution you when you say "Full-Leaded Matcha"! In recent years, it has been found that many producers of Matcha Green Tea have been found with heavier than normal traces of actual lead! Please be sure your viewers are avoiding "full leaded" versions of Matcha!
Speed Phreak Thanks- I have read that. I don't have MS so not sure if it's really relevant to me as there's a tonne of things that can cause damage to the myelin sheath not related to MS. Mercury attaching to nerves etc.
1. Green tea
2. Black tea
3. Decaff green tea with ginseng (ginseng reduces inflammation)
4. Matcha green tea (couple it with Lion's mane, stimulates brain activity)
5. Chamomile tea, great for a long-term fast, before bed
Thank you.
Thank you..
Chamomile is awesome!
These won't break autophagy?
First 3 full of flouride👎, 4,5 👍
Drinking tea is like drinking alcohol at first u don't like the taste but once u get to it u will be addicted. That's what happened to me 😊
First 25 years of my life I completely refused any tea. Then when I admitted I needed to quit soda, I decided to give hot green tea a try...and that's how it was for me too.
It depends on what tea you first drink. True and whole leaf tea is always addicting, if prepared right.
more retarded comments, but what can one expect bellow such video
What’s your favorite? I’ve been doing mint tea after dinner each night. Looking for a couple more ideas

@Dan M7 fosho i guess
Is it safe to drink on an empty stomach? Like would two hours before breakfast be okay?
@@kden1922 i do it in empty stomach as well unless you get really bloated try small doses i guess
Ginger tea all the way!
Is that good to go? Or does it Break a Fast?
Drinking game: take a shot every time he says "You see".
Crystal Ball I played that once’s with “end all be all” & “darn/dang”
But only water & non-sweetened herbal tea
Lol
Do you see though? To see or not to see that is a question.
Congratulations Thomas on everything I wish you continued success and every happiness

I checked this video as I am now on the 4th day in water fasting and wanted something warm inside. Switching from spring water to tea.
Yerba Mate is the best!
Can i drink yerba mate during the fast?
Yerba Mate is an excellent choice 👌 everyone should drink it 🧉 I do daily
what about yerba mate? thanks
Is homemade ginger and cinnamon (no sweeteners, etc) tea okay during fast?
No, because cinnamon contains calories

Not a liquid fast, some ppl, have smoothies and soups on their fast. I live a life of fasting so its up to you. Listen to your body and modify or adjust for your needs

Isn't earl grey black tea??..

Did you know that you can soak nuts in a salty water to remove the phytic acid? I love sunflower seeds, but I also love lots of nuts and seeds, but need to get the most from them.
I LOVE this!! This is right up my alley!
Great video....loved pictures of the baby!!!
j h thank you for watching!!
Would cinnamon infused tea (with turmeric and ginger) break the fast??
Help!! I found a tea that I can totally drink without anything in it. But...I need help to see if they are Keto approved. I have searched to no end and I am not seeing anything about it.
TEA: Red Rose- Blueberry muffin it has 0 everything with added stevia already in the packet.
Thanks!
What about white tea? Where does this fall into as a category?
Hi M.Delauer.
What you do is amazing,
KEEP DOING IT.
I have 1 simple question:
When i fast i drink
black coffee
And
Black tea.
i didn't remember but it is actually black tea with a flavor of blueberry .
I went back to the store where I bought it and seller actually told me that it was dry pieces of blueberry and that it has no problem with my fasting protocol. But I'm not real sure because if it is actual blueberry pieces that are dry will it kick me out of my fasting.because fruit contain calories and calories kick you out of fasting right so simple question will my black blueberry flavored tea kick me out of fasting.
thank you very much for your time keep doing your amazing video.
Ps: is there a type of chewing gum that you can chew while fasting that won't kicks you out of your fast that you are aware that exist because I'm a big gum chewer.
Dominic Morin yes it will kick you out the fasting process!
Don't overstress about it! It's just fine! It won't break your fast and it has veryy little to almost no calories for you to worry about. Maybe 0,001 calories lol. Btw, your fast breaks after 50 calories ingested
For stigmatic sounds like a new album title from t o o l
What about Rooibos Tea??
I'm a quadriplegic and detox teas really help me out greatly my bowel movements are twice the size all the bloating goes away in my stomach and I feel great
Will Matcha tea break my fast since there is a gram of fiber (5 calories ) per serving. I'd like to drink this more often. But I start my day with coffee, and I'd like some matcha in the afternoon but I don't want to break my fast. Would that gram of fiber break the fast?
Should someone trying to repair adrenal fatigue use matcha?
Go Ye Therefore , i would stick to the ones that calm you down like chamomile instead.
Any caffeine with adrenal fatigue is not the best idea.
What about Ginger Tea?
Your fan discount does not appear? Do you have an updated link? I'll hold off on my order until I hear from you! Thanks!
Could you please do a video on fluoride in tap water?
Reverse osmosis water purification systems at Whole foods. Fluoride is rat poison obtained as a byproduct of aluminium smelting.
Awww, the little bear..!
Can you do a video on sugar free gum and fasting please?
Thanks for the deal on the teas. Newcomer here ,testing the waters . You make it not so frightening .
belizeguy thanks for tuning in!!
If I fast the whole week the whole 5 days than but than Im not fasting for 2 days,
whan the week reset than every time I will fast than stop for 2 days than fast one more time my body will not get use to it meaning that every time I start a week of fasting it will be jest as difcult as the first week of my fasting or is it not please answer me I really need to know !
and thanks for the vid
try 36 to48hrs between meals
What do you mean
And Thanks for replying
I think it really matters what you eat on those 2 days. I think if you eat a lot of sugar, fruit, and bread, it is going to be really much more difficult to go back. But if you focus on lots of vegetables, and non-sweet fruits like avocado, or peppers, then it won't be so hard.
Killer man. I’ve been trying to get better at doing intermittent fasting, I got outta it for a bit. And sadly have been having trouble getting back into the grind
Great video , but i recommend white tea over any regular green tea (not matcha)
White tea goes through the least possible amount of processing, allowing it to retain many of its powerful antioxidant compounds. White tea has less caffeine than green tea.
White tea is also believed to have slightly higher levels of polyphenols than green tea. Research has shown that this may give white tea an advantage over green tea as a cancer-preventing substance.
Thank you for this video! What about rooibos and green rooibos?
Yeh I wanna know too😂👍
I dont like the bitter taste of tea. Can i add some stevia to it?
Don't brew it too long or with super hot water, especially green tea. You can try to Google brewing times & temps for different types of tea.
Yes, he has another video where he suggests you put stevia with your coffee
Attention please, Thomas DeLaur! May I please caution you when you say "Full-Leaded Matcha"! In recent years, it has been found that many producers of Matcha Green Tea have been found with heavier than normal traces of actual lead! Please be sure your viewers are avoiding "full leaded" versions of Matcha!
Also, some say matcha from China is more related with high lead than matcha from Japan.
Just to keep in mind I guess.
Hey dumbass then get organics! Wow you are dumb!
👍Terrific info. I’m not much of a tea drinker and can’t really do caffeine so I wasn’t going to watch this video but I’m so glad I did. Thanks. 💞
Can we use lemongrass tea during IF?
What helps repair the myelin sheath for nerve issues causing tingling, numbness in the fingertips day and night?
Rach Kate movement and omegas 3s when u break your fast
I was referring to something beyond the basics I'm already doing. ☺
Maybe try pregnenolone
Speed Phreak Thanks- I have read that.
I don't have MS so not sure if it's really relevant to me as there's a tonne of things that can cause damage to the myelin sheath not related to MS.
Mercury attaching to nerves etc.
Ask a doctor if you’re having medical symptoms not the internet
