Caution: Excessive green tea or use of concentrated extracts may, in rare cases, lead to liver toxicity, so it is best used in moderation.

While less stimulating than coffee, green tea still contains caffeine and may be better tolerated when paired with calming herbs such as lemon balm or tulsi to promote balance.*
