I’m not a prophet, just a guy with a keyboard and a mild caffeine dependency. But honestly? Green tea extract is probably fine. The Word of Wisdom is about avoiding harmful addictions and things that “take the edge off.” A pill with antioxidants? That’s medicine, not a vice.
If you’re worried, ask your bishop. If you’re not worried, stop stressing. And if you’re like Dave, maybe lighten up—we’re all just trying to be healthy here. (Dave, if you’re reading this, I’ll bring you a chamomile tea next time. It’s herbal. Totally legal.)
So go ahead, take your extract. Just don’t brew it, don’t call it “tea time,” and maybe don’t wave the bottle at conference. You do you, boo. And if you want, let’s grab a cold drink and laugh about the whole thing. I’ll buy.
