I read this, hoping it was bourbon...

The problem with green tea, for me, is that it causes kidney stones

I used to drink a lot, and after I cut it out (and started taking magnesium) stones mostly went away.

Did you know if you switch from your morning cup of coffee to a cup of green tea you can get a 76% reduction in what little joy you have left in life?

[wardaddy]

I take in 500-1000mg a day caffeine
Mostly diet Sun drop or Mountain Dew

And Milo’s tea from Alabama

2-300 mg of diet Sun drop to wake up

Burp

Half a La Gloria soberano stogie

And I’m ready for the day at 67

I drink coffee too usually after meals or 2am driving on trips

[Omnivore-Dan]

Apparently, Joe Biden never drank the stuff.

Green tea does have caffeine. I would not drink it at night.

“A study out of Japan has found that older adults who regularly consume green tea have fewer cerebral white matter lesions, a key indicator of cognitive decline and dementia.”

i wonder if the study controlled for about a gazillion other confounding factors, not the least of which is the amount of fish the Japanese eat ...

and personally, i don’t care HOW healthy green tea is supposed to be, because the stuff tastes to me like grass clipping that have been steeped in hot water ...

“Perhaps that’s why green tea is credited as one of the reasons older adults in Ikaria, a Greek island, have little to no dementia.”

Perhaps it is because of their love of red wine and afternoon naps?

I’ll do my 4 cups of coffee each day. I’m 81...where am I going??

[simpson96]

For what it’s worth, I know of a 93-year-old lady who drinks green tea daily. She’s in remarkable health for her age.

[Bullish]

Study brought to you by the green tea growers association.

Well, probably.

[Uncle Miltie]

I take EGCG, a green tea extract, daily.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

“your risk of dementia decreases by 6% for every cup of green tea you consume”

How awesome is that!? I’m going to drink 16.7 cups of green tea tomorrow and never again worry about dementia.

[DAC21]

Maybe capsules will work? I just can’t get into hot green tea.

[Ronaldus Magnus III]

Alcohol kills brain cells, but only the weak ones.

I’m getting smarter every day!

And then, someone will invent Hard Green Tea; it will be in the store right next to the Hard Cider.

After composing that last statement, I realize that I will stick with my Irish coffee (Bushmills Single Malt)

[ArtDodger]

Irish green tea just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

[jonrick46]

"Green tea is rich in antioxidants — particularly catechins like epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) — which have anti-inflammatory and cell-protective properties, potentially reducing the risk of cancer and stroke.

Great! I eat EGCGs every day. I should be protected from dementia.
