Gunpowder Green Tea Cause Nausea and Diarrhea?

by Laura
(Bolton, England)

On Sunday I decided to try Gunpowder green tea at a cafe. I wanted to go for the healthiest option.

The tea didn't look that green in colour when poured out but I drank it anyway.

I was given a medium sized teapot and I drank it all. Shortly after I experienced nausea and today (2 days later) I have diarrhea.

I was wondering if gunpowder green tea has done this to anyone else?

Answer:

Laura, green tea does sometimes cause stomach problems as you have described.

However, it seems unlikely to me it can still result in stomach upset 2 days later.

My two cents.
