PS - Healtheries Green Teas are all caffeine free now, but most other brands are not - so if you're avoiding caffeine I would avoid other green teas or check if they say decaf on the pack.
Also - we put a preg warning on all of ours, so just check the pack if in doubt. (I was their food tech til a month ago - so I wrote the packs, thats how I know they all have the warning )]]> Wed, 13 Jun 2007 11:54:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8187&PID=159924&title=green-tea#159924 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8187&PID=159920&title=green-tea#159920 Author: Nikki

I work (or should I say worked) for healtheries - our naturopath said green tea is too stimulating so to avoid it, but generally you are safe with one cup a day of most of the teas. I did post the list somewhere on here once, but you'll find it on the website .... ]]> Tue, 12 Jun 2007 14:22:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8187&PID=159335&title=green-tea#159335 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8187&PID=159023&title=green-tea#159023 Author: BellaB

I read no - good for ttc, but not good for when you are pregnant.

The healtheries site has some excellent info on it, I dont know the address but it is probably just .co.nz. They list all the tes you shouldn't drink in pregnancy or the ones you can have like 1 a day.]]> Mon, 11 Jun 2007 17:54:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8187&PID=158822&title=green-tea#158822 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8187&PID=158806&title=green-tea#158806 Author: BellaB
