RE: your comment about too much green tea leads to brittle bones. How much is too much? I've been drinking about 6 cups (48 oz) per day, room temp, no sweetener or milk, sipping it from time I wake up to 7pm ish. LOVE CONSUMER LAB! Thank you for sincerely and professionally being the watchdog and educator with total neutrality that the public needs.

Thank you for making research on the subject. I was personally looking for the testing of lead in matcha powders, as with many powders in spices like origano, test with heavy metals. Often these products are praised with high health value, but a darker side seems to be passing under the radar of many who consume these products almost daily ..

I drink one glass a day and it has helped me with some of my anxiety and so fourth..but that all could my mind playing tricks on me. I've lived in Japan for 5 years and it was everywhere. Definitely something good to drink but not a bunch at a time. Thanks for the info

Finally, it's best to take green tea extract with food. Both exceeding the recommended dose and taking it on an empty stomach may cause serious liver damage ( 30, 54 ). Green tea extract can be consumed in capsule, liquid, or powder form. The recommended dose is 250–500 mg, taken with food.

Japanese ceremonial grade Matcha is the best. Expensive but perfection .

Useful tips
Every night I drink 1 cup of matcha and 1 cup of normal green tea.

This was just an ad for joining your group that comes with a fee. No useful info and waste of time to watch.

I had a stroke after drinking an ostensibly organic Sri Lankan grown green tea (but also eating the leaves) that left me with permanent kidney damage (I am on dialysis). I sent some of the tea from the brand (that I'd bought around the same time) and it had 1890.270 ppb of Lead. Can share heavy metal assay (of the green tea) results if you're interested.

Kirkland Costco Tea bags are made of some shiny plastic nylon stuff that couldn’t be good for you. In hot water I’m sure chemicals and things you do not want in your body leaches out.

I drink either Organic Green Tea or Hemp Green Tea with local bought honey every night before going to bed (never strong)

[gemchristian]

Which green tea is best for trying to reverse fatty liver? Thanks 🙏🏻

Hi Dr. Tod, I have been drinking Bigelow Green Tea for years, 1 cup every morning. Now, I read that there is fluoride in green tea. I steep my green tea bag for 10 minutes and even suck the tea bag at the end of drinking a cup. Is this a problem? Should I look for a different green tea? Maybe organic?

[margiefelicilda]

Is green tea ok recomended for people who suffer from anemia or lowblood?

[vinmavenus]

Is it suitable for hypothyroid people ?

[lennyblunden]

Interesting how fluoride makes your bone n teeth brittle and its in most tooth paste and the water supply.
