Yes, not good

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Yes, it is not good to take more tea as it increases the useless calorie intake, also causes gastritis and flatulence.

Instead you can take green tea as many as 4 cups per day with a artificial sweetener with it. It has many good ingredients which helps to maintain good health.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
