4-5 liters! Two liters of green tea typically contains over 400mg of caffeine which is the upper limit recommended for adults. This guy was consuming around 1g of caffeine a day.
- tdullien 3y agoI regularly consumed in excess of 1g of caffeine during my early to mid 20s, either via coffee, green tea, black tea, or mate, or mixtures thereof. I don't think 1g is a very rare dose?
- jareklupinski 3y agoi start getting extremely nauseous if i get close to 500mg before mid-afternoon daily coffee drinker
- cassepipe 3y agoI seem to remember that tea has another molecule that balances the negative effects of caffeine. Now let me try to find that information back... EDIT: It's called theanine : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9anine https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9anine
- monkeynotes 3y agoIt doesn't really balance it all that much. I still get jitters from green tea.
- cassepipe 3y agoInteresting. I am quite sensitive to caffeine and yet I regularly drink green tea, typically around a liter and never get that weird anxiety I get from too much coffee. Maybe it's just that tea has less... On the other hand green tea gives me nausea if I didn't eat anything in the morning.
