I hate dreaming. Day dreaming sure, but not waking up then realizing you just had a dream. I actually thank God in the morning when I don’t dream, which is most of the time for the past years. Don’t know why I don’t like it, I just don’t.
So imagine my surprise when for one whole week, I always dreamt. And not just any dream – as in vivid, weird dreams I consider as nightmares. One was about my mom getting married again (she’s a senior citizen already) while another was about my ex and his ex.
Since I don’t usually dream, I thought of what I’ve done differently to have caused this. Only one thing came to mind: green tea.
That same week, I’ve decided to be more healthy replacing my coffee consumption with green tea. That meant I started drinking at least 4 cups of green tea per day. I googled it and was so freaked out by the results – I was not alone! Other people have also experienced this phenomenon though what they go through are lucid dreams.
So weird!
Since I didn’t want to stop drinking tea because of its health benefits, I decided I would just lessen the concentration. Though I still normally drink about 4 cups of tea, I only use 2 tea bags for the whole day. Somehow it worked. My dreams lessened (or are gone altogether) though I still occasionally have some. I hope one day the dreams will all go away though.
Try it if it works for you and let me know.

Aw, how come you hate dreaming? I only hate the bad ones. They stay with me for days on end… But the good and the weird ones, I write ‘em down. Hihi
I don’t know. Kahit magandang dream, which is rare, ayaw ko. Usually weird ang dreams ko eh. Hehe
whoa! amazing! amazing lang…pwede palang maka-affect sa sleep mo ang pag-inom ng tea,…. tsk tsk… iinom din ako!!! gusto kong managinip! hekhek…
hello hello
Oo nga eh. Nagulat din ako na may mga scientific basis chu chu pa na tunay nga yun. Try mo and Kwento mo panaginip mo!
Last Sunday, I dreamt ‘the’ Emilio Aguinaldo had a long-time crush on me. Today, I dreamt two of my friends were running for senator. Such dreams I only get to shrug off. I never really thought tea consumption brings about nightmarish, let alone weird dreams. There has been no change in my liquid intake these days. I seldom get to drink tea,
But.
4 cups a day???? What were you thinking?
Uy! 4 cups is fairly low. Experts say up to 6-8 cups pa nga daw eh. Hehe! But yeah, I lowered it down to 2 per day na Lang
