One of the primary concerns men and women have as they age is the accumulation of body fat, especially around the midsection. Some studies suggest drinking up to four or five cups of green tea a day! However, others recommend more modest amounts. There aren't many concerns about the adverse effects of green tea, other than the fact that it may reduce iron absorption and caffeine levels. However, if you're healthy, you can probably safely drink anywhere from 3-5 cups of tea to enjoy the maximum health benefits. Because there's only about 25 mg of caffeine in each cup of green tea, and most healthy people can have up to 300 mg of caffeine each day, that concern is largely only valid for people with caffeine sensitivities or people who are pregnant.
