Green Tea effects: I understand your concern about drinking green tea every day in high quantities. Single doses of up to 1.6 grams (about 4 cups) of green tea extract are well tolerated. One can take up to 8cups/day of Green Tea. If you are caffeine sensitive, you may get headache, dizziness, irritability, upset stomach and nausea. Taken with stimulant drugs, green tea may increase Blood Pressure.
