I can’t drink green tea. There’s something in it that makes me feel dissociated from reality. It’s a really “off-centre” feeling, like I’m watching myself from the side. I loved the flavour, but the side effects make it a no-go for this lad.

As I have gotten older, I’ve had to eliminate all caffein from my diet, coffee, tea, soft drinks, literally everything otherwise I get lightheaded and slightly dizzy.

The beads trap fat in the gut?

We need certain fats. Are these magic beads capable of distinguishing “bad” fats from “good” fats?

Sorry, I don’t trust these people.

Now, prepare for the usual band of commenters who will show up to shame anyone who is overweight who looked at this thread. The word “fat” in any title seems to send them into a feeding frenzy.(No pun intended.)

“The beads trap fat in the gut?”

Sounds like it. Meaning you have grease exiting the backside.

That’s very unusual “tea” there.

Please verify that your “tea leaves” do not have small vaguely crystalline structures, orange tendrils, or a skunky smell before brewing or consuming.

/s, :D, etc.

LOL, no it’s not that stuff. Even the pre-made cans from the grocery store does this to me.
