how much tea can I have?

joyco · October 2008

I've been really limiting my caffeine intake-only one item w/ chocolate a week-but I know I can have more than that. How do I know how much caffeine is in sweet tea though? I just got lunch from Chicken Express (craving mashed potatoes..yum) and got sweet tea since it has been over 4 months since I've had any tea at all. I want to drink the whole thing, but I don't know if that's a good idea.

Is there a web site or something that shows how much caffeine is in different things?

they recommend under 200mg of caffeine daily. Black tea contains 40-120mg per 8oz. glass. Assuming that your iced tea is likely substantially diluted, a 16 oz. would very much be on the safe side. Here's baby center's article on the topic (chart on page 2): https://www.babycenter.com/0_caffeine-during-pregnancy_3955.bc

thank you! I'm going to go guzzle my sweet tea. Oh, wonderful, lovely sweet tea. (drooling like Homer Simpson now...)
