As per the experts, consuming green tea on an empty stomach can cause a negative impact on the body. Nothing should be taken other than water. Lemon, apple cider, pepper or any ingredient like that can form gas on an empty stomach.
Green tea contains tannins which can cause constipation or stomach pain if taken on an empty stomach. Also, if you are an anaemia patient, take your green tea only with your diet so that it can absorb iron from your food.
As per experts, do not drink green tea more than three cups. If you are drinking your green tea on an empty stomach, eat something with it to balance out.
The best time to drink green tea is between 10-11 am and 6-7 pm, as at this time, the metabolism rate decreases in the body.
