I drink no less than one cup of green tea daily. Got in the habit of drinking only water and green tea. Figured that's all I need as for drinks. There's a reason cultures have been drinking it for centuries.

Awesome! I’ve been waiting for another Wu Mountain Tea video forever - the technical analysis and tea education is unmatched for us in the west! Hope you’ve been doing great Dylan!
Congratulations on this fantastic video. I just spent 4 hours watching it, reading the PDF, and translating it for my non-English speaking colleagues. Needless to say, during lunch break, I couldn't contain how magnificent I found this work of yours.
THIS! THIS is the content I've been waiting to come back into my life. Loving the breakdown of scientific articles for the non-academics. Its unfortunate that so much JUICY information is locked behind scientific articles that folks not accustomed to the torture of reading through these articles can see so I love that you've turned into a sort of scientific communicator. This is the content needed in the non-tea-centered cultures (primarily the west) and adds that extra nerdy (guilty pleasure) scientific knowledge on top.
I tend to get those benefits when I consume it mindfully - that's why I love consuming it certain seasons or times in my life especially on a daily basis. Then I stop - it's pretty much on and off. Something so simple yet powerful and effective.
I can only imagine the time that went into making this video and the PDF. I've definitely noticed many benefits from drinking green tea regularly, most notably an improvement in chronic digestive issues. Anyway, amazing work, thank you for sharing it! And thanks for the reminder to delve back into your masterclass series.
You're a walking advert for the brain benefits of green tea, you seem cheery, you're well informed, this is as super extensive video :) thumbs up all around
Just stumbled upon your channel recently after wrapping up my first paper on tea science for college. Your recommendations have totally opened up a whole new world of tea for me! Honestly, I thought this channel was fading away when I first found it, but I'm so glad you're back with your vibrant content. This video feels like it condenses more knowledge about green tea than my last few months of meta-analysis. Definitely, I’ll never get enough! Sending love from Quebec, Canada 💚
As a med student in the US I have to say your videos are an outstanding and concise evidence-based resource. Will be coming back to these when counseling patients on tea consumption and its benefits!
I drink 2 cups of green tea a day on average I knew it was good thanks for the further explanation. I have suffered anxiety and stress though. I started watching your video and decided to make a cup of green tea.
This was an awesome video! I started drinking green tea in my 20s as an alternative to coffee and I knew it was good for you but i never realised how beneficial it actually was until watching this video. Thank you so much for you thorough and thoughtful research, your clear and concise delivery of the information and you even kept it entertaining. i learned quite a lot and found it easy to watch :)
Great video Dillan. I have really enjoyed your videos on tea. I am really interested iin all of the different tea types. I would love it if you did a deep dive into each of the different types of tea. Not one video talking about all of the different types like you have already made, but a individual video for each type. Thanks for what you put out already. I feel like I have really learned a lot from your channel.
Oddly enough some days caffeine makes me sleepy, some days it makes me wired all day, some days I feel euphoric, and some days I don't feel anything. Most often though I feel wired for a few hours and then I crash.
I definitely agree; I experience a pretty regular fluctuation in my caffeine sensitivity and “buzz quality,” but you’ve got to think: sleep, hydration, frequency and type of tea drank - I like to have espresso anywhere from 2 times/week to 2 times/month depending on availability, convenience, situation, which obviously effects my tolerance to caffeine from tea pretty quickly - are all dynamic factors. Overall I can say any crash I’ve had from tea was much easier than a coffee (or any other stimulant) crash. Drinking smaller quantities ‘gong fu’ style produces less of a crash than say drinking a few glasses ‘grandpa style’ like Dylan is having in the vid, but if I’ve been drinking coffee frequently a light tea may just make me feel warm and sleepy without much buzz.
I've been drinking caffeinated coffee for 60 years all day long. I drink coffee before bed. If I don't, I cannot sleep. I have never experienced a coffee buzz, and enough, I've never had a brain freeze with ice cream. I do have Parkinson’s Disease. The brain, gut sounds good. Thank you
My weird obsession with tea is dimmed by yours! The info was succinct and encouraging for all of my clients (I practice TCM )…if i can just talk them into “dirt water washed off leaves”. Keep at it!
Thank you for making another great video. There's nobody on RU-vid going as deep in tea as you 👌🏻 Perhaps you could explain, how these described effects are significant with other tea types 😊
Man, I'm glad you are back! Really missed your amazing content! Science rulez ... and ...more tea for the masses... I am very gratefull for your work, plus you upped your video-game a lot as well ...
Recently I found your channel. Your masterclass made me a tee enjoyer. I look forward to taste all kinds of teas! I'm genuinely happy to see a new video!
Top shelf green tea he says.. Best to buy. But that is seriously subjective and not necessarily the most expensive. I'd definitely start with organic though.
So basically I've been self-medicading my anxiety, depression, and adhd with tea for years and just thinking "mmm, tasty!" 😁 I wonder if there were the studies comparing the effects in different types of tea? Would whites be close in effects or do they kick in with leaf oxidation? Is grinding leafs into matcha preserves all the mentioned green tea effects?
Awesome to see another upload and a fascinating topic! I drink aged white tea daily so I wonder what the differences would be for daily drinkers of different tea varieties
Everyone addicted to caffeine, like I was, must love this video. From my own experience, there is nothing better than kick the addiction for good as you'll get all the benefits talked above and much more. If my comment makes you feel emotional than you do have a problem.
Very Excited to see a new video from you! Love your videos! I'd love to learn how black tea stacks up as a healthful drink and as compared to green tea. Beign someone who strongly prefers black tea, I'm hoping it will do me good too. Thanks again for your new video. Good wishes to you.
Imagine how good green tea combined with black tea, *and* two kinds of sugar-fermented in a kombucha f1 can be.. more *is* better in this context. 👁️👁️👀
A few years ago when Petes Coffee and Tea was still run by the original owners, they had a green/black tea blend, the only place I've ever seen such a thing. @@PhilWhelanNow
A >100 reference literature review of tea health benefits in an approachable way?! How can you do all this and do your PhD? I am deeply impressed! Kudos for your review article with more than 100 citations in about 5 years! You are on academic fire!!! All the best and I am looking forward to see more of your super high quality content! (and scientific articles :))
I love these science videos! I would be really interested to understand the health comparisons btwn different types of tea (green vs pu’erh are the most interesting to me) I know you’d said the catechins are different in green vs pu’erh so it would be cool to understand caffeine/l theanine/poly phenol differences btwn the different types of tea!
Nice! Like you said, polyphenols will vary a lot with major tea type. Regarding L-theanine and caffeine, the major factor would not be tea TYPE, but rather tea GROWING CONDITIONS (soil fertility, sunlight, water), SEASON, and GENETICS. There will be huge variability in the concentrations of caffeine and L-theanine WITHIN any given tea type, however the total global AVERAGE might be similar comparing different tea types (Green vs. Black vs. Oolong). I'll try to lay this out more clearly with good data in a future video. Thanks for watching :) -Dylan
Just as I dive down the rabbit hole of Tea, Wu Mountain comes through with a new video. Amazing! Thanks for the top notch content and sharing your knowledge and experience!
Not only is green tea delicious but now I can rest assured my brain is happy too! Appreciate your scientific explanation of the subject, I think I'll have to check out your paper too
I expected robot voice when clicking on this video cause of the thumbnail. Glad it was not. Really informative video, I feel like I'm gonna go back to this and watch it again. Thank you for your work 🍵
Fantastic video! Kudos to you for putting this together. Also know it is appreciated and helping a lot of people. Found you and subscribed. Look forward to more updates in the future.
Hello, thank you for the informative video! What i'm wondering is that if the difference between green tea and a young sheng is the extent of the kill-green process, would the sheng have the same benefits as the green? Thank you!
Thanks for the comment! I hate to speculate, BUT... I would say in terms of health effects discussed in this video you COULD reasonably lump Green Tea and young Sheng together. They would slowly verge apart with age though. That's not to say the health effects disappear over time. They just might not directly overlap with Green Tea. Personally, I drink much more Sheng than Green Tea because I love it more 😜, but it can't hurt to mix a Green into the rotation once in a while. By and large, both are great, but diversity is usually optimal. Hope that helps, Dylan
Thank you so much for your tea contributions. We knew EGCG was good for a while now but the brain health specifics are really astonishing, it's good to know there's very legitimate reasons to drink it.
This video provides an excellent explanation of the benefits of tea for the brain, highlighting how its mechanisms differ from the direct stimulation of caffeine. 👍👍
