How Much Green Tea Is Safe to Consume During Pregnancy?
If you don’t want to do away with caffeine completely, your doctor will recommend that you take only a maximum of 200 mg of caffeine per day. If your doctor approves of those guidelines, it’s OK to have a cup or two of green tea each day. Just be sure to monitor your overall intake of caffeine to stay below your doctor’s recommended limits. To make sure you stay below that level, also add up the caffeine you consume in:
- chocolate
- soft drinks and sodas
- black tea
- energy drinks
- coffee
