1. You May Feel Jittery or Nervous
Green tea’s caffeine may boost alertness, but can also cause jitters or anxiety. This may be due to:
Caffeine content: Too much caffeine may trigger restlessness or anxiety. Avoid tea at least six hours before bedtime to reduce insomnia risk.
Caffeine sensitivity : Some individuals may experience overstimulation even with small amounts, depending on how their bodies process caffeine.
Medication interactions : Caffeine may increase stimulant effects or reduce how well anti-anxiety medications and sleep aids work.
