Won't hurt: But it does nothing for it. Green tea does not have an antibiotic in it. Typhoid is caused by a bacteria. You need a medicine to kill it. Green tea isn't one.

Overhyped: Green tea is the latest in a long line of overhyped nutritional products. Claims include weight loss, better health, longer life, better endurance. Do not believe the hype. Yes green tea contains some anti-oxidants and phytonutrients, but it still contains caffiene which is a stimulant and has diuretic properties. Too much green tea is not good for you.
