It's much better to drink your tea than swallow it in a pill! Diane talks about the danger of taking green tea extract pills to be healthy or lose weight. This is from the story linked here by the BBC about a lovely family man who just wanted to get healthier in mid-age and ended up needing a liver transplant, and possibly a kidney transplant in the future from taking green tea pills he had heard were healthy. Most people can take tea extracts and not die, but people have died from taking them who have just been trying to be healthier. Others have needed liver transplants, like Mr. McSants. Always check with your doctor before doing or taking anything you have 'heard' is healthy. Green tea contains EGCG, a catechin component of tea that is a good thing unless taken in huge amounts. It's so much better to just 'drink your tea'!
