Does taking green tea and birth control cause anxiety attacks?
I am not sure about birth control, but drinking too much green tea can cause anxiety because of its caffeine content. Below is an extract from the first link: Caffeine intolerance is the most common cause of green tea side effects. Green tea contains about half the amount of caffeine found in coffee, so moderate consumption of green tea is unlikely to cause problems for the majority of people. For those who are sensitive to caffeine, here are symptoms to watch out for: * restlessness * irritability Those with psychological disorders, especially anxiety or panic disorders, should drink green tea cautiously. Those with overactive thyroid, or hyperthyroidism, should also exercise caution. For some guidance on how much to drink, read the second link. Drink moderately (3 to 6 cups) and see if the problem go away. I hope it heps.
