Is green tea supplements okay when you have IBS? I was taking centrum weight smart with green tea which lists the green tea ingredient and then has caffine in ().

Hmm, not sure. How much caffeine? (BTW, pretty picture.)

I've heard a couple non-IBS'ers say it made them not feel well, so you might want to be careful with that. I've never had trouble drinking green tea, have you drinken it before?

Thanks! I had been taking those supplements but then I threw them away after I went back and read the back label. I am new to IBS and sometimes am not sure of what irritates me so I have cut it all out and now I am experimenting with different things. Thanks for your reply!

Generally, the caffeine is a no-no but the benefits to green tea shouldn't be ignored. The solution: decaf green tea. Drink lots of it. Take it to work in a thermos.
