from absorbing iron so I make sure not to drink my tea with meals. I love green tea. I have fatigue problems and a gene mutation that puts me at risk for breast and ovarian cancer so green tea has lots of good benefits for me. Green tea gives me the energy boost I need and it gives my body lots of cancer fighting antioxidants.
