Flori,
Yes, it would be helpful to have all the Tykerb info together.
Sorry, do not know how.
Green tea has a lot less caffeine than coffee, and I actually like to have a little caffeine, so I drink regular. At first I did not like the taste of green tea but found a wonderful brand Harney and Sons Japanese Sencha Green tea. I got used to it. (I order it by mail.)
NCI has a number of clinical trials with green tea. I figure they might be onto something.
Good night, good luck,
Odette
