    Does anyone else have this prob? I have been having 3-4 cups of green tea daily for more than 2 years now and find that I can't sleep until 2 am on most nights. At first I thought I can't sleep because of my 2 year old son's erratic sleep patterns and because of his getting up in between...............now I think its not just that, its the green tea as well. But I just can't stop drinking...........does anyone have this problem?

    i am on green tea for about more than a year now... i sleep well...
    but to be on the safer side just try u have green tea only during mornings!
    green tea do not contain caffeine so it shouldn't interrupt your sleep patterns...

    A cup of green tea contains about 25 mg of caffeine(far less than coffee, but it does have some) and you might be sensitive to even the small amounts(I am). Try decaf green tea and see if it makes a difference.
