Heard a lot about "green tea" just wondering if any GNetters drink on a regular basis and if they think it helps them in anyway.

I was feeling shattered this morning and was just about to make a cup of normal tea (milk & sugar) when I found my emergency bag of mixed teas/sugar/coffee etc that my neighbours bring me back (all from the welcome trays from their hols) smile

There was some "Green tea" in there so I decide to have a drink.....not sure if it was mind over matter but I did seem to perk up later on! Its a taste I would have to get used to eventually hmm.

I love Rooibos but want to use some of the teas I use less often. My Rooibos caddy is empty but I may buy some tomorrow.

I mix and match throughout the day. De caff tea first thing followed by de caff coffee straight afterwards. Then green smoothie made with green tea. Redbush mid afternoon [and lots of water with d Mannose in it throughout the evening]. Someone did put up a list of food/drinks that can irritate the bladder and green tea [surprisingly] was one of them so I am a bit careful with it now.
