Update on the Green Tea use...
Had to stop drinking the stuff.
Started getting pain through the back through to the left side of my chest.
Have a high tolerance for caffeine to begin with, but even substituting the green tea for the coffee, the lingering discomfort had me testing whether it was the tea and ridding myself of that (three different types of green tea), the pain and discomfort subsided.
Was quite surprised, as green tea is said to contain L Theanine and lesser amounts of caffeine.
I had wondered even before I had started whether there was risk in starting to regularly drink teas of Chinese origin (pollution, contamination?).
Either way, had to stop drinking these altogether.
Back to my coffee (Sumatran) and black tea (India) and more highly caffeinated than ever and non of the distress of the above.
Update: I'm not 100% sure it's the tea. Could be something else. If I drop dead, I'll be sure to provide an update! lol
