Dear Linda,

I give Mom buckets of NATURALLY decaffeinated green tea. The brand is Harris. The benefits are retained if the tea is naturally decaffeinated. Additionally, I add one or two regular teabags to the pot. The most benefits from the green tea are obtained in the presence of some amount of caffeine. By the way, the problem with too much caffeine is not related in any way to "stimulating" the cancer cells. They are simply the normal concerns such as blood pressure rise, loss of sleep, or risk of irregular heart rythym in those who are susceptible. Green tea has been shown to be quite safe even in large quantities. The only complaints I have heard or read of, are an upset stomach in a very few. Drink up! It can only help.
